Elordi, who dates influencer Olivia Jade Giannulli, 24, has become known as ‘babygirl’ on social media for her love of fashion and gentle demeanor.

Urban Dictionary defines the now-viral term as a man who is ‘extremely attractive, but in a softer, more light-hearted way’.

The Priscilla star, who played Elvis in the film, opened up to GQ about why he is always seen with a handbag.

“Where I grew up, we had a culture where you wore bum bags, fanny packs,” Elordi explained.

‘When I leave home, I have to have a certain thing from each category with me if I’m bored – a book, a notepad, rolls of film, a camera, a pen.’

The Saltburn actor also went through the contents of his bag in one GQ videodescribing his tote as looking like Hermione’s bag in Harry Potter ‘when she pulls a tent out of it.’

Elordi’s must-have items included a leather folio for manuscripts, a baseball cap as a quick disguise, maps, a vintage cigarette case, watercolors, several books and a film camera.

The on-screen star revealed he gets all his handbags for free, admitting: “I’ve never bought a bag.”

But the Euphoria actor isn’t the only celebrity who loves a man purse – Harry Styles, ASAP Rocky, Offset and Jared Leto can all be spotted with bags of their own.

On X – formerly Twitter – fans have gone wild for Elordi’s bag collection, which features a particularly playful yellow Louis Vuitton Speedy Monogram.

The LV bag made its debut at Pharrell’s Spring/Summer 2024 show and was then modeled by Rihanna.

One person even has the username ‘Jacob Elordi’s bag collection.’

Another X user joked: “Oh, that’s a designer bag being carried by Jacob Elordi.”

One follower wrote encouragingly: ‘Jacob Elordi has always been a wallet and I love it.’

“Jacob Elordi please hire me as your personal designer bag curator,” begged one devoted fan.

One summed it up: ‘Let’s be serious: Jacob Elordi looks good with a small purse because he’s 6’5″ and handsome.”

On Reddit, the response was much the same in a discussion on a page dedicated to ‘Jacob Elordi and his handbag collection.’

‘How did I never know he killed?!’ asked a Reddit user.

‘I feel stupid saying this, but I’ve never noticed how… non-gendered a handbag actually is until this? I don’t know the right words to use.

“Purses/handbags are pushed on women, but they’re completely neutral accessories, like a backpack,” one Reddit user pointed out.

‘I love this. His confidence makes it look so natural. In none of these, it seems like he’s just holding a girly bag for her. He owns it,’ proclaimed one fashionista.

Others dished out: ‘I love a small bag on a huge man’ and ‘My female gaze is staring’.
