actor Matt McGorry has discussed the sexual attention he receives from fans.

McGorry, who plays Prison Officer John Bennett on the hit Netflix series, says that rather than praising his acting kills, some fans send him pretty scandalous messages on social media.

“It’s nice and a rare thing when someone’s like, ‘You’re a great actor. What a great performance.’ I don’t take it personally when that doesn’t happen,” admitted the 28-year-old hottie in an interview with Cosmopolitan.

“[But] someone on Instagram said, ‘I wish I could hide all the chairs in the world so you’d have to sit on my face.'”

He continued: “I imagined an elaborate scheme, in which someone sought to hide all of the chairs in the world, and I got so tired of standing up that I just had to sit on this person’s face. Frankly, I don’t quite understand what pleasure they’d get out of that.”

Meanwhile, earlier this week, some of McGorry’s Orange Is the New Black castmates took the opportunity to wish everyone attending Pride in London this weekend a happy celebration – click here to watch their special Pride message.
