Last July, Gus was featured in ESPN’s Body Issue; in January he made history holding the rainbow Pride flag in his Head and Shoulders commercial and now he’s sitting down with Ellen.  In addition to being animal lovers the pair are both outspoken advocates for the LGBT Community and talk about equality; homophobic Vice-President Mike Pence leading the US Olympic delegation, and more.

 

As usual Ellen has a few surprises in store for her handsome guest.

Looks like Gus gotta boo-boo. Want us to kiss it and make it better?
