Arad Winwin, a 34-year-old model and gay adult film star, has recently faced backlash for supporting Donald Trump in the 2024 presidential election, opposing Kamala Harris, and publicly sharing these views on social media. Despite his established popularity in the LGBTQ+ community, some followers and industry peers were surprised and disappointed by his stance, given Trump’s often divisive stance on LGBTQ+ issues.
Winwin’s career in adult entertainment has included work with numerous studios, and he’s been nominated for GayVN Awards multiple times. His journey to the U.S. is notable as well: originally from Iran, he left the country and the military at 22, later moving to the U.S. where he worked as a model, including a stint as a “Trophy Boy” model for Andrew Christian.
His support for Trump, particularly in a social media post celebrating Trump’s victory, sparked criticism from fans who pointed out contradictions, especially given Winwin’s immigrant background and work within the LGBTQ+ community.
