Cohen:
Life of the party

the pandemic, but he plans to

sight… and not necessarily his face.
For about a third of his 32 years, he
has been one of the most iconic fitness
models (1.3 million Instagram follow-
ers alone) idolized in the gay universe,
known as a daddy from his early 20s.
“That Arabian hairy chest!” he
laughs, joking that his mom insists,
“That’s how I came into the world.”
He embraces that identity, though; in
fact, it’s a tenet of his happiness to be
comfortable in his own skin. “I’m really
happy — I have some friends who
are so stressed about ageing, but I am
OK with it. You get to know yourself
better.”
Knowing himself — indeed, accept-
ing himself — wasn’t always easy.
“Israel is different from [the rest of the
Middle East] — Tel Aviv is the gayest
city in the world! Like, really insane.”
But Cohen wasn’t from Tel Aviv. Grow-
ing up in a smallish city in the north of
Israel, being openly gay didn’t seem
like an option. “When I was young, I
didn’t accept myself,” he says. It was
an era where “calling someone gay [on
a playground] was a slur. Also, I was in
the army — we were [in close quarters]
and taking showers together naked,”
so admitting he was gay felt awkward.
After he came out of the closet, he told

Of course, the par-

is not much in evidence
during corona.
“I moved to Miami
from WeHo about eight
