Jesus Torres

Sometimes a story announces itself the moment you walk into a room. the night we stepped into mb boutique bar and met jesús, there was an immediate knowing–a calm confidence, an effortless warmth and a presence that didn’t ask for attention but commanded it. in that moment, it was clear he wasn’t just part of the room; he set the tone. that’s when we knew jesús would be the perfect face to usher in a new beginning for 2026.

A Venezuelan native shaped by a lifetime of travel and a year of reinvention in New York City, Jesus Torres brings more than charm behind the bar. he brings empathy, culture and an unmistakable magnetism rooted in authenticity. whether navigating the unforgiving pulse of nyc nightlife, embracing the vulnerability of being in front of the camera or building his adult stage through sacrifice and patience, jesús leads with positivity and purpose. grounded, self-aware and irresistibly himself, he embodies a modern definition of allure — one where presence, kindness and personality speak louder than looks alone

As we step into a new year, Jesús stands as a reminder that true attraction begins within — and when it’s real, the room feels it the second you arrive.

What’s been your proudest moment?
My proudest moment was when I startedmy adulthood stage because what I’ve completed has been a sacrifice.

After a year in nyc and a lifetime oftravel and experiencing so manycultures, what have you learnedabout yourself?
every place i’ve been, i’ve learnedabout their cultures, affection andempathy, i’m like a sponge, i find that i absorb everything positive.

How do those lessons shape where you want to go next?

You’ve lived and worked in many places. What city taught you the most about charm, confidence and the art of being irresistible?
For me, New York is one of the cities that has a lot of culture. there are many latinos. I love new york. it’s one of the most visited cities in the world, and i like it because I feel at home here.

Venezuelans are known for their warmth and undeniable allure.
I feel that beauty goes beyond a physique. but if something does characterize us Venezuelans and how wherever we go, we make the difference, It’s because we like to take care of ourselves and always above all, the presence is the trick.

People say you have a naturally magnetic presence. What’s the secret behind the way you walk into a room and instantly become the most intriguing person there?
Well, I’ve always been asked this. Whenever I get to a place, i always make a difference. I think the trick is to be yourself.

In hospitality, personality is everything. How do you use your charisma—and that “Dangerous Smile”—to elevate the experience for the people you serve?
