Musician Role Model has been entertaining fans on tour with a recurring bit where he jokingly introduces himself as various celebrities, including Jacob Elordi, Sabrina Carpenter, and Kris Jenner. The playful routine has even caught the attention of Elordi himself.
In an interview for PEOPLE’s Sexiest Man Alive issue, Role Model, whose real name is Tucker Pillsbury, shared a recent encounter with Elordi during a dinner in Paris. The two discovered they share the same sense of humor about the ongoing joke.
“I happened to be seated across from him and I walked in and he was like, ‘My twin, my brother,’ and we talked and caught up,” Pillsbury said. “He was very cool and he was like, ‘The first thing I ever saw about you is you signing autographs in Central Park as me.’”
Elordi, also 28, referenced a 2024 TikTok video where Pillsbury humorously signed autographs pretending to be the Euphoria star. The clip captured him sitting for a portrait in Central Park when a fan approached him, mistaking him for Elordi.
“Euphoria,” he responded when asked which movie “he” appeared in, prompting the fan to reply, “OK, exciting.”
Role Model’s witty self-introductions as other celebrities turned into a viral joke, culminating in a good-natured meeting with Jacob Elordi in Paris.
