Donning lingerie, black tights, a bow-tie, and bunny ears, the 23-old-year made ‘history’ by having the title of the first gay man to be featured on Playboy’s cover.
A post on the magazine’s official handle quoting Rock cited “For Playboy to have a male on the cover is a huge deal for the LGBT community, for my brown people community, and it’s all so surreal”.
It further added “a total ‘is this even fucking happening right now?’ type of vibe. And I’m so pretty.”
