Everything You Wanted to Know About Cobra Kai Star Gianni DeCenzo
If you're like us and you've been watching Cobra Kai since the very beginning, you know just how good the series is at developing its characters, taking them from unlikable to downright beloved over time.
The show's Demetri is definitely one of these characters, transforming from a bit of a social outcast to a character who finds his own confidence and strength after joining Miyagi-Do Karate. He's easily developed into one of our favorites, and actor Gianni DeCenzo has done a brilliant job bringing him to life. We had to get to know more about the star, and here's what he revealed to us as our latest Man Crush Monday.

Fun Facts:
1. Gianni's favorite piece of clothing is currently his Logic Confessions of a Dangerous Mind tour jacket.
"It's this flannel-looking thing with red skulls and Japanese writing all along the sleeve. 10/10 would recommend."
-Gianni DeCenzo
2. If he weren't an actor, he might want to be an engineer of some kind.
"Like building robots and stuff like that. There are these things called Arduinos, which are like programmable computer chips, that are super fun to play around with."
-Gianni DeCenzo
3. He doesn't consider himself much of a gamer, but there is one exception.
"I could easily play Minecraft for hours. That stuff never gets old."
-Gianni Decenzo
4. He can't get enough of the scent of the great wild wilderness.
"My favorite scent would definitely have to be fresh cut grass, or honestly anything to do with nature, like the smell of a forest after it rained. I just really love the outdoors."
-Gianni DeCenzo
5. He has a short attention span, but he says that's actually his favorite thing about himself.
"Because of this, I'm constantly finding something new to do. I taught myself how to sew, sculpt, draw, garden and code, all because I get bored quickly and want to find a new thing to explore."
-Gianni DeCenzo
6. For a long time, the thing he used his phone most for was definitely texting his girlfriend.
"But now that she lives in the same city as me, we see each other a lot more."
