“Jacob Elordi is the number one babygirl”- our dear Jacob is unstoppable
“ There is no man in Hollywood as tall, as popular, or as beautiful as Jacob Elordi. The 26-year-old Australian is having a breakout winter: First he played Elvis Presley as a himbo in Sofia Coppola’s vibey dollhouse nightmare Priscilla, and soon his handsomeness will cause everyone around him to lose their minds in Emerald Fennell’s upcoming Saltburn. But there is also no man in Hollywood nearly so babygirl.
How can a man tall enough (6’5”, as we are legally obligated to note) to be a combo guard for the Los Angeles Lakers be a little girl, specifically a baby one? It’s all in his too-adorable-for-words demeanor and disarming interview answers. Even his enormous height gets a babygirl reaction: When the actor says how tall he is out loud in front of an audience, people are moved to clap like it is an achievement.
Elordi says his first celebrity crushes were Orlando Bloom as Legolas and Brad Pitt’s Achilles in Troy. Elordi thinks Kylie Minogue is a national treasure. Elordi loves carrying handbags — the Louis Vuitton Speedy, Bottega Veneta’s Andiamo and smaller Cassette crossbody, Valentino’s Lóco — because he loses things but also because he gets bored and needs things like small books, tiny watches, and little pens with him at all times. The best movie Elordi says he’s seen all year is Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem. He’s seen it four times.
Altogether this amalgam of qualities and tidbits about Elordi — the teen crush on Legolas, the reverence for Kylie Minogue that falls at the intersection of Australians and gay millennials, the cool-girl collection of handbags, the boyish joy at TMNT, and the security to be able to talk about this all without embarrassment — is a portrait of a 6’5” man as the ultimate babygirl. Elordi is redefining what it means to be a Hollywood hunk.
Think about the hottest Hollywood hunk you know. He’s a babygirl, right?
Jacob Elordi’s apparent ascent to leading man status is a tricky thing, mostly because it’s coming at a time when we’re all reevaluating what a “leading man” even is.”
The article is quite long so I can not post it all but it’s a fun read!

For anyone who doesn’t know what the slang term “babygirl” means, here it is..
Babygirl is a phrase used to describe when a man is so primally attractive that you want to provide for him. Also a man so attractive he has you in a loving chokehold (figuratively).

Because Hollywood got 'woke,'
The leftist radicals who currently run the U.S. entertainment industry despise classic beauty and are trying to push ugliness/obesity as the new standard.

I have never heard baby girl used for a male. It was a black slang term used for girls and blew up when Timbaland used it to refer to Aaliyah on her hit “Are You That Somebody?” in 1999 or so. I’m starting to think a.i. is writing all theses articles and flat out rewriting history..

Elordi is anything but ugly. And it’s a new term r5. Things change. New slang terms are born every few years while others die. We don’t use terms like “groovy” or “far out” anymore but they once were popular. Welcome to the real world.

It’s a term created by Gen z. Old people don’t need to use it, or any slang for that matter.

He was the only memorable part of Priscilla. I do think he has potential as an actor, especially in his age group. But he comes off as pretentious and doesn’t have a lot of charisma outside of his movies so I’m not sure if he can become a movie star.

R14 you keep claiming he has no charisma when charisma and charm are the two biggest compliments for both his performances as Elvis and Felix.

Babygirl is a term created on social media by Gen Z females to describe very attractive guys.
He’s very handsome and like many very beautiful men tends to do things to make himself less good looking. This is something I’ve always found interesting about a lot of good looking men.

R15 In interviews he doesn’t really come off charismatic. If he wants to be a bigger star he needs to work on that.

For example Zendaya hasn’t really demonstrated she has much range in her acting, but she has a lot of charisma in interviews and on the red carpet hence why she’s a huge name among her age group.

R17 it’s because some of them get tired of people only ever caring about their good looks. I think they start to feel resentful or just annoyed. The catch is they know at any given moment they can clean themself up and look gorgeous again, without a problem. Elordi is very attractive and in a very conventional way.

R25 Jacob’s team clearly wants him to be the leading man/movie star of his generation. Remember that GQ profile from last year or so? Being talented and good looking is not enough, you also need to have charisma that draws people to you. And Jacob doesn’t have that outside of his movies. He needs to work on it, that’s all I’m saying.

Paul Mescal lover,
I have some news for you.
People on the Autism Spectrum are able to identify others on the Spectrum, even unconsciously, even if they themselves don’t know they have it.
Paul Mescal is probably on the Spectrum. Jacob Elordi is definitely on the Spectrum.
You, my dear, are also probably on the Spectrum.

I met him in September on set of a film called Oh Canada-it was one of those sAG-AFTRA interim agreement projects.. He actually walked up to me and somebody else and introduced himself to us. He was a genuinely sweet, nice person. Everybody on set ended up loving him and not just because of his work ethic which was wonderful.

"Babygirl" is being used to denote people who are sexually attractive, and nobody has any pedo problems with that? Or problems with how patronizing and objectifying it is?

EVERYONE loves when someone who admits to not knowing anything about or had never heard of or has never seen an actor in something and they’re too lazy to even google them whines about how much they dislike that actor.
You should get a job as a film critic. “I absolutely HATED this movie and the lead actors all have zero chemistry or charisma. It was so bad I didn’t even watch the movie and I’ve never seen any of the actors in anything, but I saw a pic online of one of them once. Zero stars.”

R72 that can’t be argued. He was never hailed a star by anyone. He was cast in mostly Ryan Murphy projects and then barely around. He never was making headlines until the Superman casting and he hasn’t even been heard of since the announcement. He wasn’t getting critical praise and headlines for giving great performances in films, because he wasn’t even in films really. He isn’t known. Once Superman comes out he will be the way Cavill became a household name but until then he’s mostly unknown. Elordi is a legit star
