Courtney Act has posted a fresh set of shirtless photos out of drag, pairing low-rise jeans with a Calvin Klein waistband peeking above the fabric and a gold chain. The Australian performer also shared a getting-into-drag video that opens with him in front of a mirror wearing only a white robe.
The post arrived with a caption aimed at Australian Eurovision fans, saying they would be waking up at 5am to watch semi-final 1 live on SBS Australia in the morning, and that the moment would be “the glamour” waiting for them. It also nodded to Eurovision 2026, with Act calling out “Superstar” by Senhit and Boy George as a “real bop” and a “VERY Eurovision moment.”
The reaction online was immediate and strong, according to the source material, which framed the photos as another sharp turn in a public career that began on the drag stage and moved quickly into television. Act first drew wide attention on season 6 of RuPaul’s Drag Race, where he finished in the top three, before going on to win Celebrity Big Brother UK, host The Bi Life and appear on Dancing with the Stars Australia.
That track record matters because the new post is not just a thirst trap or a costume tease. It is another reminder of how Act has kept shifting between performance, personality and pop culture shorthand, using a single social post to reach both drag fans and viewers who know him from reality TV. The shirtless images may have sparked the buzz, but the video and the Eurovision caption point to something more familiar: an entertainer still using the moment, and the internet’s attention, to stay in the middle of the conversation.
The bigger question now is not whether the post got noticed. It is how often Act can keep turning these quick bursts of attention into renewed visibility across drag, television and live-event culture. For now, the answer is simple: the post landed, and people were already talking.
