Orville Peck is no stranger to making headlines—or hearts race. The masked country music star and current Broadway sensation has sent social media into full meltdown mode with a steamy new selfie that perfectly defines the art of manspreading.
Taking to Instagram, Peck shared a thirst-inducing shot of himself wearing nothing but a cap and tight briefs, legs spread confidently, leaving very little to the imagination. The post, cheekily captioned “Broadway dump” with theatrical emojis, features backstage snaps from his stint in Cabaret, but it’s that first photo that’s got the internet gasping.
And yes, the fans have gone absolutely feral.
A Thirst Trap for the Ages
The image quickly racked up over 147,000 likes among his nearly 800k followers, with fans and celebrities alike filling the comments with appreciation—and sheer panic.
“Now Orville!!!” commented Heidi N Closet, of RuPaul’s Drag Race fame.
“Slide 1 is my new lock screen,” wrote Titanique star Marla Mindelle.
“He’s trying to kill us today,” declared another follower.
“I know a baddie when I see one,” added another.
On X (formerly Twitter), where the image also made the rounds, reactions ranged from hilarious to downright unhinged:
“My blood pressure just rose,” one user posted.
“I just fell to my knees… to pray, obviously,” another quipped.
“Orville Peck wildin’,” one fan summed it up.

Broadway Star Power, Sans Mask
In addition to giving fans a lot to talk about, Peck is also turning heads on Broadway, where he recently joined the cast of Cabaret as the Emcee—notably performing without his signature mask for the first time in his career.
He stars opposite Eva Noblezada (Hadestown) as Sally Bowles, and fans attending the show have been sharing rave reviews of his performance.
Other photos in the Instagram “dump” include behind-the-scenes glimpses with Marcia Marcia Marcia, the Drag Race alum who’s also part of the Cabaret cast.
Orville Peck may sing about secret affections, but with this latest photo drop, there’s nothing subtle about the thirst.
