On the call sheet and credits he’s listed as “Jacob Elordi,” but to the Internet he is best known as “6’5 Babygirl.” After getting his start in Netflix’s teenybopper hit The Kissing Booth franchise then cementing his one-to-watch status as Euphoria’s resident sociopathic-narcissist Nate Jacobs, 2023 was the year when Elordi transcended his characters and became a star in his own right. He won rave reviews for his portrayal of Elvis in Sofia Coppola’s Priscilla and followed it up with a starring role in Emerald Fennell’s Saltburn. Although he’s now well-known as a champion of the male handbag, on the red carpet he’s not necessarily chasing headlines like some other young stars. Instead, his style tends to be refined with a bit of a retro elegance. One night, he’ll channel the minimal ’90s chic of John F. Kennedy Jr.; the next, he’ll be dressed like the richest (and chicest) man in the VIP booth at Studio 54. The overall effect is someone who may just be a timeless leading man in the making. Here, a look back at Elordi’s best red carpet hits.
