Recent ads featuring well-known figure have caught attention for surprising reasons

When we think of a well-known Australian family, images of wildlife conservation, a famous zoo, and a notable figure often come to mind.

However, the youngest member of this family is making headlines for a different reason, sparking curiosity among many.

His recent actions have intrigued fans, leading to widespread discussions online. As attention grows, people are eager to see what’s next for him.


At just 21 years old, Robert Irwin has stepped out of his khaki uniform and into something a little less conventional.

In a bold move that has the internet buzzing, Robert has flaunted his muscular physique, stripping down to his underwear for a series of racy advertisements for Bonds, the iconic Aussie brand now launching in the United States.

The wildlife warrior is seen posing confidently with a variety of reptiles, including snakes and a lizard, while donning the brand's underwear in settings that scream 'Aussie.'

These settings range from a quintessential backyard with a lawn mower and a white Colorbond fence to a rustic stock fence and even lounging on a patch of grass.

In the campaign, Robert cheekily suggests that it's the comfy undies that contribute to the laidback Aussie demeanor.


Speaking to US People magazine about the new campaign, Robert's enthusiasm was palpable.

'It was an immediate yes,' he shared with the publication.

'I wish I could say I was very suave and cool about the whole thing, but I was like, 'Yes, let's do it!' because Bonds Australia is an absolute icon.'

But it's not just about modeling for Robert. He's seizing the opportunity to embrace new experiences that push him out of his comfort zone.

'I'm at the point in my life where I'm trying to do as many different and random exciting things, and if it's something that makes me a little bit nervous, that I've never done before and it's a bit of an adrenaline rush, that's what I want to be doing,' he explained.

Beyond the steamy photos, Robert is proud that the 'Made for Down Under' campaign is also a platform to bring awareness to wildlife causes, a passion that runs deep in the Irwin family.


While Robert's professional life is soaring, his personal life has changed.

Currently thought to be single, Robert's first high-profile relationship with Rorie Buckey, the niece of the late Oscar-winner Heath Ledger, ended early last year.

The couple shared a respectful joint statement on Instagram, expressing gratitude for their time together and requesting privacy as they move forward on separate paths.

The internet's reaction to Robert's transformation has been a mix of surprise, admiration, and support for his new venture.

It's a reminder that the Irwin legacy continues to evolve, with each member finding their way to make an impact—whether through conservation efforts or by breaking the mold in unexpected ways.

DAD WOULD BE IMPRESSED. do not know why but this kid gives me the shites.
He can be somewhat arrogant. I was surprised at his volatile reaction when they put him in the "Bluey" show, without his permission.
Then again, he's very young. Give him a break!
Quite honestly, I think he;s doing pretty damn well considering he lost his dad at a very young kid, then suddey becoming the new "man" of the home!

The whole Irwin family is tainted, with the exception of Old Man Bob Irwin.

Steve was nothing but a sensationist show pony, in the same mold as other attention seeking morons such as Bear Grylls and Simon Reeve. They produce rubbish that is gobbled up by the mindless US media audiences.

Little Robbie "The Robot" Irwin is just a faggot, trying to follow in the stumbling footsteps of his father.

I await the backlash....
thanks Veggie I knew I could count on you. They got rid of Old Man Bob and took over but what else can you expect from someone with a Yank wife. I can't stand how they wear Army khaki as if it belongs to them. They speak with half yank accent and behave like they are God's gift to everyone. I was angered when Steve was stupid enough to hold baby Rob out to a crocodile...one slip and he'd have been croc dinner. We were always taught to stay away from the sharp end of the stingray's tail but obviously Mr Know It All didn't do that and paid the price.
You won't get backlash from me my friend. I can't stand a bar of them, so pretentious and I wouldn't give them yard room. The one I've always felt sorry for was Bob who they treated with utter contempt.
full marks my friend 👌🦨(like this they stink)

The backlash is half the fun! :ROFLMAO:
 
He has just come out of a 12 month relationship with a girl so why say he’s gay. ☹️
From the "Celebrity Whisper" magazine in May 2024 when asked if he has gay friends:-

One hundred per cent! Luke, who was one of my best mates growing up is gay, and he’s also the general manager of Australia Zoo. He and his husband Mitch only recently got married and they are two of my closest mates. They are like big brothers. A lot of my mates are similarly into the natural world and like to get out exploring, hiking and surfing.

Guilty by association? Make your own mind up.

The only backlash you get from me is using "The Robot" with his name as Robbie.

I have said this alot on this forum, if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all. There is no need for that and I realise we are all entitled to our opinion but bloody harsh.

I stand by what I say and I will not tolerate any self appointed censor to dictate what I can say and cannot say. SDC administrators do that job.

If you don't like what other SDC members say, well stiff shit. This forum does not exist to pander to your wants and needs.

When I joined SDC almost two years ago, I warned the SDC administration that I speak my mind, in no uncertain terms. I don't sugarcoat or pussyfoot around an issue, nor do I bow to "political correctness".

You have been told.

Give my apologies to Walter Pidgeon and Anne Francis (purrrrrs) on Altair, the Forbidden Planet. By the way, can you make 60 gallons of Kentucky whiskey?

One of my all time favourite movies!
 
Not daddy's little boy any more.
He is getting better to watch, the older he is.
I think this ad campaign will be a good way for him to attract the young ladies.
