YOUR FAVORITE LOGO TV SHOWS ARE ON PARAMOUNT+

Video: Catching Up with Austin & The A-List: New York! "If the Truth Makes Me a Bitch, So Be It!"

Austin & Jake were all up in the 8th Annual GLSEN Respect Awards Gala in NYC a couple weeks back. Nice!

Hang on, "A-List: New York" fans!!!! (And that includes those of you who will only admit after 4 drinks that you DVR the show as a total guilty pleasure... There's no shame here.) It's time for another weekly check-in with the cast of the show, as we gear up for the big, bodacious Season 2 A-List: New York premiere coming on Monday, July 25th on Logo!!!!

This week, let's hear from Season 1's best bad boy, Austin Armacost! Remember him? He got naked (a lot!). He stirred up drama. He fought with Derek -- and then they became besties. He seemingly pursued Reichen, then revealed he had a boyfriend in England, and then he got in a fight with Rodiney, and then he got emotional in Maine, and... Oh Lordy... It was a lot. (Which I loved, thanks.)

Season 1 memories: Austin's butt! And here he is NOT flirting with Reichen, ya dig? (Nice guns, though.)

Anyway... Austin is back for season two and raring to go!!!

SOME QUICK POINTS YOU’LL LEARN BY WATCHING THE VIDEO BELOW:

AA HEARTS UK! Austin spent lots of time in Northern England cozying up with Jake's family this past winter. Pass the shepherd's pie!!!

Shameless name-dropping is soooo Season 1! Remember the first episode when AA was name-checking Marc Jacobs and such. He we just nervous, okay??!

YEE-HAW! Austin is a smalltown boy at heart. He's just a "back porch, lemonade-drinking kind of guy." Maybe he can meet up with Drag Race's Stacy Layne Matthews and they throw in some "bullfrogs and sweet tea" for good measure! (Actually, that would be major, y'all.)

About Season 2 Newbie Nyasha... "She's crazy!!!! If they wanted this show to be 'A-List Insane Asylum New York' then they hit it on the head."

And Austin talks about being "a bitch," his portrayal on Season 1 and as for the "A-List Dallas" spin-off show coming, he's all for it! He loves some "country" gay men!

Awww, you gotta love Austin! He's charming as hell, and a walking-talking drama machine! (And trust -- when you meet him, he's the nicest, most up-front guy you'll ever see.)

After the jump... More pics to clue you in to what else he's been up to... HEH!

Yes! Let's see some snapshots!!!!

First... SKIN, please!!!

And just last week, Austin tweeted this cryptic little missive...

What? Huh? Who? What is going down on the "A-List" folks????

And then... Who loves a hot rugby hunk????

Like I said, Season 2 of "The A-List: New York" is coming back at you starting on Monday, July 25th! And if you're in NYC this summer, watch out, because Season 2 is shoooting! You might end up in the line of fire... Duck and cover, gays!!!!
