Oliver Cheshire on gay attention: ‘I’m very flattered’
By Will Stroude
Oliver Cheshire says he’s “very flattered” by the attention he receives from gay men, and that girlfriend Pixie Lott is “always” taking him to gay bars.
The male model features on a special collector’s edition of this month’s Attitude – The Style Issue – and stars in a ten page fashion spread, which you can see some exclusive shots of below.
Inside, the 26-year-old says he feels “honoured” to have a gay fan base and to have been voted into the Attitude HOT 100 by readers last month (July).
“I’m very flattered by it all”, he says. “There are a lot of gay people in the fashion world and they know their stuff, so if anyone’s going to say that I am well-dressed and I am well-groomed it’s them.
The face of Marks and Spencer also reveals that girlfriend Pixie Lott might have something to do with his gay appeal, adding: “Pixie is always taking me to gay bars like Freedom in London so I’m always dancing about there. I love it. It’s good fun.”
In an extended interview on the iPad edition, Oliver talks about his many naked and underwear shoots, saying that when it comes him, “It’s all real”.
