Gay YouTube Star Writes Essay on 'Having the World's Most Perfect Ass'

Bryan Hawn is a YouTube star/Internet celeb who is probably most known for showing off his backside in his music videos, which often parody pop stars' biggest vids. The self-described recording artist, zoologist and fitness icon has more than 166,000 followers on his YouTube account and has earned nearly 31 million views. He's got over 423,000 Facebook likes and almost 100,000 Instagram followers (NSFW).

In an essay called "The Blessings and Burdens of Having the World's Most Perfect Ass," published to New York magazine Tuesday, Hawn, who is openly gay, talks about his e-famous butt, and says his behind is 100% real.

"People often accuse me of having had butt implants, which just negates all of the hard work I've put into my training," he wrote. "I try to look at it as a compliment. But seriously, you really can't cheat fitness. Butt implants look fake because they're not in sync with the rest of the body. People who know about anatomy know that everything I've got is real."

Hawn also talks about his unique physique, writing, "When you're six-foot-one, weigh 185 pounds, and have a V-shaped torso that tapers into a 30-inch waist and a shelfed-out backside, a lot of people assume it's all genetic. In fact, my whole body was actually built from a stick. In high school, I was just a lanky, 145-pound kid who loved musical theater, soccer jocks, and Mark Walhberg's Calvin Klein ads."

The YouTube star says he started using the platform because it "let me show off my attributes and indulge my love of musical theater." In 2012, Hawn made video called "What I Did All Weekend," which parodied the Emma Stone film "Easy A." He says "gay websites went crazy [and] before long, I had cultivated a loyal following of booty enthusiasts."

Hawn, who has directed and starred in more than 250 videos, opens up about his personal life, confessing he is single.

"I think it's become harder to develop relationships as my internet fame has grown. I'm never sure if people are interested in me, intrigued by my stardom, or just want a piece of my ass. It's disconcerting. I try to take things slowly," he wrote in New York magazine.
