32-year-old The Bear and Shameless actor Jeremy Allen White recently caused a stir online after featuring in a revealing Calvin Klein ad, sporting nothing but abs and undies.
Calvin Klein somehow always gets it right. First, it was Mark Wahlberg sporting skimpy Klein underwear in 1992. Now, it’s Jeremy Allen White who captured the desires of netizens, after the brand released their new campaign in collaboration with the actor.
Curious about why so many of us were left blushing? See for yourself:

The ad captures Jeremy sporting a white Calvin Klein tank top walking the streets of New York City – his stomping grounds. In the next portion of the clip, he runs up the roof of a building, where he strips down into underwear. To add to the ambience, golden light reflects off the actor’s chiseled physique as Brooklyn city makes an atmospheric backdrop to the scene.
After its release on Saturday, the internet lost its collective cool.
The video, which has already amassed over 3 million views, drew in thousands of comments from blushing viewers.
@bellamillgate commented: “calvin klein, i sincerely appreciate everything you’re doing for the world. this is the best day of my life and i’m not exaggerating in the slightest. thank you i owe you my life”
@scharbz commented: “what a fantastic day to have eyeballs”

@kate.e.dawson says: “You grossly underpaid him for this no matter what the final figure was lol”
At the Golden Globes awards on Sunday, White’s reign continued when he won ‘Best Performance by an Actor in a Television Series in a Musical or Comedy’ for his leading role in the series, The Bear.
In his thank you speech, the actor addresses the ad campaign that sent netizens into a flurry. He said:
“It’s been a weird couple of days, it’s been bizarre doing a Calvin Klein ad and now it is even more bizarre having it come out. but everything feels okay for now.”
