Neighbours’ Matt Wilson looks at men’s bottoms.
The 27-year-old actor portrays gay stripper Aaron Brennan in the long-running Australian soap and has admitted he sometimes forgets he’s no longer in character and finds himself glancing down at guys’ peachy behinds, despite being happily engaged to his fiancĂ©e Sharn Norman.
Speaking exclusively to BANG Showbiz, he said: "So you’ll be doing a scene and a guy will walk past and you find yourself looking down at his bum and you kind of go, ‘Hold on! I didn’t mean that, that was just the character!’ "
And, although he didn’t have much acting experience prior to nabbing the daunting role last year, Matt didn’t have too much of a problem getting into character.
He explained: "I took inspiration from my gay mates. I still haven’t told them yet. There’s one group in particular who all grew up in Manly , Australia – Oh there it is, I just gave it away, they’re going to figure it out now – and we used to hang out quite a bit there and I figured they were the best kind of people to model it off. I’ve noticed everything they wear, the way they react to girls and the way they react to guys – it’s completely different. I had to investigate a lot."
