Jeremy Allen White, star of The Bear, opened up about his reaction to seeing his Calvin Klein underwear billboard for the first time—and it was more personal than fans expected.
In a recent appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, White recalled walking by the massive ad in New York City with his childhood friend Gabriel Gomez.
“We went and had kind of a private moment with it,” he said, smiling.
The actor shared that seeing himself in such an iconic Calvin Klein campaign felt surreal, especially after growing up walking past similar billboards in the city.
The black-and-white campaign featuring White in briefs and baggy jeans quickly went viral earlier this year, with fans and media praising his chiseled look and Calvin Klein’s bold direction.
But beyond the hype, White’s reaction was simple—he just wanted to quietly take it in before the internet exploded with reactions.
Despite the attention, White remains humble about it all. “It was a moment I didn’t think I’d have in my life,” he added.
