Antoni Porowski: A Pisces with a Passion for Flavor and Empathy
Andrea Marks Joseph READ TIME: 5 MIN.
Pisceans are known for their emotional intelligence, their ability to intuit how others are feeling and understanding of how best to support them. It's a quality that has served queer celeb Antoni Porowski in his entertaining, generous work on "Queer Eye," which inspired his National Geographic food travel show, "No Taste Like Home."
While Porowski is known to enthusiastically dive into tasting some really shocking, questionable items found in "Queer Eye" heroes' fridges, the food expert always comes up with wonderful advice and suggestions that bring the joy of delicious meals to the heart of his heroes' homes. And he looks so good while doing it!
In true Pisces style, Antoni is a creative is many fields, someone who takes his friendships seriously, and is committed to sharing the art that inspires him – whether that be a luxury brand's collection inspired by an artist he admires, a beautifully plated restaurant offering, or a particularly stunning photograph someone has taken of his delicious abs.
Today we're highlighting our favorite Antoni thirst traps that align with what we know to be true of a fun-loving, friend-adoring, kind-hearted Pisces. Cosmo describes Pisces energy as "expansive, magical and worldly, soulful and joyful." These are all characteristics we've seen in the Netflix star and foodie. The joyful way he shares his knowledge and skills with "Queer Eye" heroes, teaching them to make foods of various skill-levels and cultural influences, and inviting families to unite in the kitchen and make meals they'd be able to enjoy together. We love to see the Pisces spirit of compassion, emotional depth, and empathy celebrated in the ways this lover of food, rescue dogs, and thirst traps lights up the world.
Being around bodies of water calms, inspires and brings contentment to Pisceans. Porowski regularly posts pictures of himself relaxing near the sea, generally (blessedly) posing shirtless and making sure we see that his hard work in the gym and with his fitness trainer is paying off in so many ways. Per Cosmo, "being in or near water truly makes [a Pisces] happy: swimming, sailing, fishing, surfing, even just walking on the beach. Bliss." This is clearly true of hot Pisces Porowski.
Another example of the successful work between Porowski and his trainer is their collaboration to design "the perfect workout short." We're so impressed by this, and even more impressed by the fantastic thirst-trapping photoshoot they created, showcasing the TV star and the strength of his thighs and back muscles as a means to show off the stylish shorts.
The love and compassion a Pisces embodies includes their romantic endeavors, making them trustworthy, considerate, and adoring intimate companions – their natural behavior extending into supreme swoon-worthy territory. Porowski certainly served romance hero in this Thom Browne fit, complete with a blooming red rose, when he attended the brand's Edgar Allen Poe-inspired fashion show.
On "Queer Eye," Porowski embraces the more relaxed side of his fashion sense, but in true Pisces style, he loves to switch his outfits up when the occasion calls for it. It's always a thrill to see how good he looks in a suit tailored to his incredible body. This can sometimes be distracting, though – an issue we're happy to be victims of, especially when the clothing is shaped and styled to highlight the divine curves of his muscles. For example, see the below photoshoot for The Laterals. You would not be alone in not having realized until now that this is an Omega watch ad. Thoughts and prayers go out to the Omega team, but our heartfelt thanks go to the stylist, who did a magnificent job at styling the sublime pants to draw our eye towards Porowski's extremely grabbable biceps and waist.
To be fair, the team did a much better job at highlighting the Omega watch in his Olympics trip. Unfortunately for the watch brand (and very, very fortunately for us), Antoni's biceps are just too gorgeous and distracting to be sold on anything other than investing more time and energy into thirsting over him.
Please join us in a momentary pause to simply stare at Porowski soaking up the sun and "doing the most" at one of his many important, life-affirming skills: casual thirst-trapping.
Per Cosmo, Pisceans "are great to work with and around, they can transform team dynamics with their subtle influence and nudges." Having a Pisces on your team can be a transformative, inspiring bonus, as they can amplify good vibes and are enriched by bringing people together. We're bringing attention to these photos of the "Queer Eye" Fab Five, not for Porowski's spread legs and what they reveal, nor for the way his pose emphasizes his forearms, but for the, uh.... evidence of the connection and grounding energy that his presence brings out in the energetic cast he works with on each of the emotional experiences that are "Queer Eye" episodes. What a truly hot – we mean, heartwarming – man he is!
Allure magazine says "Pisces are known for their dreamy nature, deep empathy, and artistic flair." Antoni Porowski's expansive tastes in cuisine and the joy that radiates from him when meeting new people and uniting creatives from different spheres to create something powerful together, is so special. He loves trying new food and visiting new places, and we love seeing new Antoni thirst traps. It's a match made in heaven.
According to Allure, "Pisces thrive in relationships where they can swim freely in the depths of intimacy and soul-searching." Porowski frequently posts travel pictures with captures that show gratitude for his friendships (for which we, in turn, are grateful) as he mostly travels to summery places, where he and his friends can spend days on end in nothing but swimwear, creating memories shaped by their shirtlessness and extending their tans.
The caption on this post from Porowski's visit to rural England is "counting sheep," but the only thing we are counting on is the idea that we may one day have (and also climb) thighs as major and delectable as his.
We love that Porowski leans into his timeless handsomeness and has fun with it, always remaining true to himself. He often reminds us of the way his Pisces nature influences his behavior, and we love to see every new iteration of Pisces thirst trap – from modeling the classic white tee, to ensuring his beach vacation photo dumps are an abs extravaganza.
