Jeremy Allen White has had a very successful few days that have put him in a revealing spotlight.
The actor, who won a Golden Globe for his performance as Carmy in the FX/Hulu series “The Bear” on Sunday night (7), is also the new face and body of Calvin Klein. The spring 2024 line's campaign features White prominently, along with her well-toned abs.
On the red carpet at the Golden Globes on Sunday, White couldn't escape questions about her eventful campaign and seemed a little uncomfortable with all the attention.
“It's bizarre to do a Calvin Klein ad and now it's even more bizarre to release it,” he told reporters backstage.
During an interview with Extra, a giant poster of the actor wearing the brand's underwear was shown to the cast of “The Bear”.
“What went through your mind when you all saw that?” Extra's Melvin Robert asked the group.
“My God,” White said in a seemingly timid response.
His co-star, Ayo Edebiri, who was also awarded for his performance in “The Bear”, turned the poster around and placed it against a nearby wall, out of sight.
“I’m pushing it away,” Edebiri said. “I’m keeping this away from my boy! This is my boy! This is my boy! This is about work, you know what I mean!?”
White and the rest of the cast apparently agreed with Edebiri.
“We’re not at an underwear awards show, you know what I mean?” added Ebon Moss-Bachrach, another cast member. “We’re here to talk about our show.”
White nodded, adding that he felt “very distant” from the conversation about the ad.
“The Bear” also had a big night at the Golden Globes, winning the award for best television comedy series.
Edebiri and White also won individual honors in their respective categories.
