Judging from his social media life, the idea of Tyler Ten being reticent or even remotely shy seems implausible. On TikTok, the 27-year-old actor has carved a commanding niche with more than 85,000 followers through dynamic dance, filter challenges and effusive performances. Then, there are the distinct "thirst trap" posts on Instagram-showing off his sculpted form, with washboard abs, and that arresting 1.9m stature.
Through the digital lens, the former model radiates a potent mix of confidence and energy. But off-screen, the real Tyler Ten, he admits, is very shy.
"Okay, so, for me," he starts, choosing his words carefully, "I would say that I am an introvert. When I am not working, I often watch shows or read at home and in my room."
Given the energy he exudes on-screen and online, this revelation might surprise many, but it offers a glimpse into Ten's coping mechanisms. His sanctuary, he shares, is the gym where he focuses on himself and shuts out the world. "Plus, it is a great way to relieve stress," he explains.
Considering the pressures of the entertainment world, it is easy to see why he would need a reprieve. "When I'm at work, I'm always talking, always in character. But off-screen? I prefer being quiet and doing my own thing."
Ten shares that he prefers spending time reading these days a habit he recently picked up. "I didn't use to read when I was younger, but it really helps to calm my mind down. I don't have many life experiences, so this allows me to do that, albeit through someone else's words. It is like acting."
Yet, it is not as if Ten shies away from celebrating his achievements, especially those of a physical nature. "I won't deny it; I was quite liberal with those thirst traps early on," he confesses with a grin. "But I've scaled back because too many can dull the impact. So, I now share selectively."
