Orville Peck’s nude shoot has thirsty fans screaming “YEEHAW!”

Orville Peck has bared all in his cover shoot for Paper Magazine, and the response has been – surprise, surprise! – thirsty as f**k. On the cover, the country singer can be seen without his kit as he sits atop a bull of the bondage variety (kinda), with just his mask (of course), a neckerchief and matching gold gloves. One photo has Peck’s bare ass on full display, while another pays homage to Chris Evans’ nude scene in Not Another Teen Movie with whipped cream covering his nipples and intimate region. The reaction…
