Jeremy Allen White is the new body of Calvin Klein underwear
Jeremy Allen White is coming in hot in 2024.
The star of The Bear, 32, is Calvin Klein's newest underwear model. The campaign, shot by photographer Mert Alas, features the native New Yorker on the roof of a building, rocking both black and white briefs.
The ads, part of the brand's spring 2024 campaign, feature a series of stills and videos. One of the latter — set to "You Don't Own Me" performed by Lesley Gore — shows the wavy-haired actor emerging from the building, stripping down to his undies and doing a series of pull-ups. After striking several poses in front of the cityscape, channeling his inner Adonis, the tatted star falls perfectly onto an orange couch as pigeons are released.
No, it's not a dream. White told GQ he has long admired the brand's ad campaign because "they always get really interesting people" to model. But he was surprised to be the one to get the call. "I didn't see this in my future necessarily. Who grows up thinking, 'Yeah, I'll be in a Calvin Klein campaign'?"
He credited his role as a pro wrestler in The Iron Claw for his rock-solid physique."I was used to running around in front of large groups of people in my underwear because of [The Iron Claw]. So maybe there was some mental and emotional prep from that job," he told the same outlet. He also noted that he had been sick with "a chest thing" the week prior to his shoot but was able to get in a last-minute run and countless push-ups on the eve of the shoot.
White, whose star has exploded since playing chef Carmen "Carmy" Berzatto on the Hulu series, has been in NYC this week with his new girlfriend, singer Rosalía. However, on Sunday he's expected in L.A. to attend the Golden Globes, as he's nominated in the Best Performance by a Male Actor in a Television Series — Musical or Comedy category. The Shameless alum won in the category last year, dedicating the win to his then-wife, Addison Timlin, with whom he has two daughters.

He's hot and the other thread as devolved into fighting about Jews.
I liked him as Lip in Shameless. Made me want to smoke.

Jeremy is so effortlessly sexy.
I can see why Calvin Klein would go with him as a model.
He's short as shit, but then again, so is Marky Mark.
And really, it's the body that counts.

As we say in the UK, body from Baywatch, face from Crimewatch.

I think it's great when these big fashion houses use someone with a face that is not classically handsome. It makes the consumers who don't look like fashion models (and face it, that's 99% of us) feel like they have a chance because a pretty face isn't always that important.
Personally I find his face to be quite virile.

R9 This is a good point. I've seen plenty of guys on dating apps who -- if I'm being brutally honest -- are not handsome at all. But they've really worked on their bodies and I respect them for making the most of what they have. It definitely increases their overall attractiveness massively.

He's got those big sad eyes that make my old nether regions stand up and take notice.

I think his face is far more attractive when he has short hair. The log unkempt hair tends to give him a more haggard look.

He deserves props just for having JAW as his initials.

You see, we say Mein Fuhrer to remind everyone that OP is worse than Hitler for starting a duplicate thread. Then we put a link RIGHT THERE for the existing thread. It’s quite simple, really. Though apparently too tricky for some.

Definitely does NOT skip nipple day in the gym.

Excellent nipple placement and areola size. Those teats are very kissable. I'd suck 'em 'till he lactated.

Put a bag over his head and he'll be fine.

Oh, please.
Jeremy has the type of masculine face that women and gay men SWOON over.
The guy just oozes sex and masculinity.
Calvin Klein could easily go with someone like pretty boy Zac Efron, who also has a nice body. But pretty boys with nice bodies are a dime a dozen.
Jeremy has a unique look. A cool look. An easy going casual look. A sexy look.
Calvin Klein knows what it's doing, when it comes to selecting their underwear models.
I mean, there's a thread where everyone is still drooling over Marky Mark's body 30 years later.

He has a face that tells a story. It tells a story about his travels and makes one think he's been many places, and seen many things. Nice things and bad things, and has enjoyed them all, more than once.

He’s like The Three Stooges’ Larry on steroids and Keto.

He grew up taking ballet, jazz and tap dance classes. Is there a possibility he’s bisexual?
