King Bach Shows Off His Hot Body for New Photo Shoot with Tyler Shields!
King Bach, who was the most followed person on the former social media app Vine, is showing off his hot body in a new photo shoot with Tyler Shields.
The 31-year-old social star, who has segued into a career in acting, teamed up with the famed photographer for a new collaboration after meeting at a game night recently.
“I am sad to say I didn’t know that much about Tyler’s work. Within a few minutes of shooting I realized something: he is not a photographer, he is an artist,” Bach said in an exclusive statement. “After the shoot, I looked at his book and realized he might not even be human; his eye is not from this world. His photos go beyond pictures. Each photo brings an emotion.”
“I often caught myself staring at a page forgetting that I was looking at a photograph. I felt myself there in that moment trying to figure out the backstory of the photo and how those characters got to where they were at when the moment was captured,” he added.
Tyler said, “When I first met Bach it was during a game of mafia. I had no idea who he was or what he did, but I knew one thing: whatever he did he was very good at it. If you told me he was a real estate mogul or ran a chain of yoga studios or invented velcro I would have believed you.”
“I have shot and been around a lot of amazing and talented actors in my life and Bach is right there with the best of them. His personality is magnetizing and his talent has not even come close to realized yet,” Tyler added. “I love the idea of having iconic portraits of people when they are young, so to say I am excited to see where Bach goes is an understatement. If he keeps it up you are looking at a future legend.”
Bach, whose real name is Andrew Bachelor, has had roles in the Showtime series House of Lies and the Fox/Hulu series The Mindy Project. He has also been seen in films like The Babysitter, When We First Met, and Fifty Shades of Black.
