Posted December 30, 2025 by Zach with 1 comment

After an entire year of weekly Thirst Trap Recaps that resulted in 34 winning finalists, whom you’ve been voting for all month long, it’s all come down to this: The crowning of Thirst Trap King 2025! before we get to the King, here’s a look at the 9 runners-up:

Just Petito

Lucas Moreno

Samuel Hodecker

Leo Louis

Oliver Marks

Keegan Whicker

Renato Shippee

Sean Ford

Lane Rogers

It was moving but not at all surprising to see a surge of votes for Lane over the last few days. It felt surreal to have this contest running with him in it, but voting started weeks before the accident, so I obviously left the poll in place and continued to count all the votes that came in.

Without further ado, the winner who received the most votes to become Thirst Trap King 2025 is none other than…

#1 KING MARCELLUS

Congratulations to first place winner King Marcellus! King (did his first name influence voting?!) joins previous Thirst Trap King winners Ashton Summers, Corbin Fisher’s Max, Beau Butler, Gael Kriok, Loc Rios, and Hazel Hoffman, so he is in very, very good company, with some of the greatest gay porn stars of all time.

Here were the final results showing King’s win and the nine runners-up (yes, it was extremely close, with the top five separated by just a handful of votes):

Thank you again to King Marcellus for sharing so much of his flawless hotness and making us so very thirsty all year long, and don’t forget to follow him. In addition to his winning photo, here are even more thirst traps shared throughout the year by our new King King Marcellus, who just might be the finest man on earth:
