Fabio de Luca: Gay Brazilian actor, comedian, spiritualist. But is his d*ck bigger than Bruno de Luca's? With some "Madam Beja" hunks

In the Brazilian telenovela Madam Beja (2026), now streaming on MAX, 19th century Brazilian girl Beja is kidnapped by an evil magistrate before she can marry her boyfriend Antonio.  By the time she escapes, he has moved on and married someone else.  What's a girl to do?  

How about open a high-end brothel?  That way she can continue seeing Antonio (David Junior, left) on the downlow, and start a new romance with his best bud, João (André Luiz Miranda, after the break).  Plus get involved in the lives and loves of her workers.

The show is brimming with muscular men and bare backsides, and there are two LGBTQ regulars:  Fortunato (João Villa, top photo), a young apothecary struggling to come out, and the trans sex worker Severina (played by the nonbinary actor Pedro Fasanaro), who starts a romance with the town priest (Arilson Lucas, left)

Another hunk appears when the evil magistrate returns with some soldiers to get his hands on Beja, or her wealth. Colonel Madeira (Fabio de Luca) "betrays" him by becoming a Beja ally, so he storms into the brothel while the Colonel is busily schtupping, and orders him out.  Later he is found floating in the river, dead. 

I started searching for more n*de photos of the big guy, and found a very interesting portrait of Fabio de Luca, a gay chub/bear comedian.  

Saved by Grace Kelly

Fabio was born in Rio de Janeiro in 1980, and began performing in children's theater.  But it was his first visit to a gay bar --  Rosa Choque (Hot Pink) -- that drew him into acting as a career.  The police raided, checking ids and arresting underage youth, and he was only 16!  He was terrified, but a drag queen dressed as Grace Kelly pulled him into her dressing room, and told him to be putting on makeup when the police entered.  It worked -- they left him alone.  Afterwards, he associated drag -- and all performance -- with freedom.  You can be truly yourself when you are playing a role.

Fat Jokes

He started in the theater, with roles in The Voyage of Peter the Fortunate (Strindberg), The Caucasian Chalk Circle (Brecht) and many plays by Brazilian authors.  Some guest spots on tv followed, often making him the butt of a fat joke.  He had to take those jobs for survival, but he always tried to shift the humor to the situation, not his appearance. 

And he sought out roles where his character could have been played by an actor of any size, such as Lazaro in The First Temptation of Christ (2019),.

Siquiera in the serial-killer drama  Peçanha Contra o Animal (2021), 

Bumbling detective Sabia in Êta Mundo Melhor ("What a Better World," 2025).

And many sketches on Porta dos Fundos ("The Back Door"), a Youtube channel with 19 million subscribers (2022-26), which made him a household name in Brazil, and permitted him to move into writing and directing.

Fabio and Bruno

 Fabio calls himself "a cross between Fabio Porchat and Bruno de Luca."

Fabio Porchat is the co-founder and head writer of Porta dos Fundos.

Bruno de Luca (left) is a fixture on Brazilian tv, best known for playing Fabinho on the teen soap Malhação (1995-97) and Romeu on Os Parças (2024).

Luke Speakman: The femme bully of "Weapons" meets a lot of hunks, likes capybaras, plays a boy raised as a girl. With Dad and Dylan dicks

 

When I saw Weapons (2025), a thriller about the mysterious disappearance of all of the kids in a third grade class (except one), I thought that the bully (right) was a girl due to their long hair and femme mannerisms -- until their dad called them Matthew (played by Luke Speakman).

There is a positively portrayed gay couple in the movie (played by Benedict Wong and Clayton Farris), and it's quite a welcome change to have the femme boy the bully instead of the victim, so writer/director Zach Creger is obviously a queer ally. But Matthew is not on screen long enough to express any same-sex interests (besides, the rule in movies is, all kids must be portrayed as heterosexual).  But maybe Luke Speakman is gay in real life. 

Left: Luke meets his crush, Merrick Hanna.

Left: Luke's birthday in April 2025: "Turned 12 today!  Guess I'm old now!"  Just wait, buddy.

Growing up in a heteronormative society, gay boys are often unaware that they like boys, or interpret their interest as friendship or hero worship.  And if they are aware, they are unlikely to mention it on their parent-curated social media pages.  But maybe we can catch some glimmers of same-sex interest to augment Luke's femme appearance.

Born in Athens, Georgia in 2013, Luke began acting on screen at age five, in Steven Spielberg's Amazing Stories (2020): he plays the young version of Sam (Dylan O'Brien, left), who goes through a time portal to the 1920s and meets Girl of His Dreams (be careful, she could be your great-grandmother).

Next came seven episodes of the podcast series The Burned Photo (2021-22): two women's "lives become intertwined when they discover they are being terrorized by the same multi-generational curse that is determined to end their family lineages."  So some lesbian subtexts going on?

Five episodes of Lost Man Down (2022), about an aspiring actor masquerading as a talent agent.  Luke plays a baseball fan who believes in aspiring player Takeshi.

An Asian hunk.  Not particularly relevant, but none of the adult stars of Lost Man Down have nude photos.

More after the break

Eddie Ramos: Teen chimera with a boyfriend, gay cage fighter, probably gay artist, DMV short guy. With his butt and cock, of course.

 

In DMV Episode 1.10 (2026), Department of Motor Vehicles employee Colette is upset because she's not part of the Hot Gurlz Friend List that her coworker Ceci maintains.  She spends the day making inept attempts at sexual double entendres, but it doesn't convince Ceci to let her join.  

Finally she sees the electrician Miguel (Eddie Ramos) standing on a ladder to repair something: Ceci's favorite cousin, and the family's "pride and joy."  After a brief conversation, MIguel asks Colette out.  She agrees: this could get her a place on the Hot Gurlz list.

Uh-oh, when Miguel descends the ladder, he turns out to be short -- 5'7".  A massive turn-on for me, but for some reason Colette is no longer attracted to him.  But she has to go through with the date to ensure her place on Ceci's list.

After seeking the advice of DMV weirdo Vic (Tony Cavalero), she decides to trick Miguel into refusing future dates, so it won't be her fault and she can stay on the list.   Sitcom complications follow, but I was busy researching Eddie Ramos. 

Eddie grew up in Queens, received a BFA from Syracuse University in 2013, and participated in the ABC Diversity Showcase in 2014. Diversity because he's Hispanic, because he's gay, or both?

The good news: Of his 29 acting credits listed on the IMDB, at least three are gay roles.

On a 2015 episode of Teen Wolf.  high schooler Corey (Michael Johnston) tells the gang that his new boyfiend Lucas (Eddie) suddenly turned into a chimera-werewolf-scorpion hybrid and stung him.  This turns him into a chimera, too.  The evil Lucas then goes to a gay club, picks up Mason (Khylin Rhambo), and tries to sting him.  But the good guys arrive, and he is killed in the ensuing fight.  Not to worry Corey and Mason start dating, and stay together through the two seasons.

The short Bitch, Please (2016) doesn't have a plot synopsis online, but presumably it's about gay guys throwing shade.

Incorporated (2016-17) stars Sean Teale as a "little guy" trying to take down an evil corporation in 2074.  Eddie plays Theo, a gay street kid turned cage fighter who becomes his ally.. He starts dating Anthony (Matt Landry, left).

Plus he appeared in six episodes of the gay-friendly Animal Kingdom (2018-19) as Tupi, a straight gang member who gets killed while naked.

The bad news:

Eddie played straight guys in Vici and Eraser: Reborn, and maybe in some of his guest roles, on Mr. Mayor, Hightown, Chicago Med, The Rookie, and so on.  I don't see a lot of gay content.  

In an episode 9-1-1 Nashville (2016): Pedro (Eddie) is working on a mural, when a scaffolding collapses.  He is buried, then suffers a spinal injury.  In the hospital, he worries that he won't be able to do his art anymore.   An artist, no girlfriend visiting him in the hospital: two queer codes.  But no canon.
