Meet Austin Show — the sexy gay influencer loving the skin he's in

Austin Show is the man to follow.

The handsome influencer began his career as a Twitch streamer back in 2013. At the time, the star was still living life in the closet, but decided to finally come out at 25 during the COVID-19 pandemic after earning a huge following online.

Although Show admits coming out in front of the entire world had its challenges, the model has never looked back as he proudly embraces his queer sexuality in all aspects of his life.

"I've got so much queer joy that I'm borderline heterophobic! I do not like to be around straight people. I want to be around drag queens! I want to be around the dolls! I want to be around gay people! Take your shirt off at Pride and celebrate who you are. Be comfortable in your own skin," Show tells Out.

Now, Show's internet fame is only gaining momentum as he constantly goes viral for his hilarious banter with Hasan Piker on Twitch. The streaming platform has boosted Show's celebrity status, but it's also resulted in a lot of homophobic rhetoric in his comments.

"Honestly, the reception was very positive and it was very supportive when I came out on Twitch. Unfortunately, our platform has gotten less progressive in the last couple years. I will say, Twitch itself has done a good job at recognizing LGBTQ+ creators, but they need to continue to do that."

Despite the trolls trying to tear down Show's queer joy, the star is fighting back by creating more LGBTQ+ content that even includes bringing straight people to queer establishments to push them out of their comfort zones.

"You're welcome on Twitch. There's a safe space for you. There is a gay agenda and I'm pushing it! The Republicans are right. We're pushing the gay agenda and there's nothing you can do about it. We're not going anywhere!"
