It seems like every week there’s a new Jeremy Allen White thirst trap. It so seems like it, I actually checked our archives and the photo agencies’ archives, and while JAW gets photographed a lot in the post-Bear world, the blatant thirst traps are more of a weekly, maybe semi-weekly thing if I’m being generous. Anyway, this post is a blatant ploy for clicks. I know some of y’all love JAW.

 

But do you love JAW when he’s in love? His most recent sun’s out/guns out photo session includes his rumored girlfriend, model and actress Ashley Moore. They were seen together earlier this summer, and appear to still being going strong. Some fans don’t like it when their fave publicly dates and/or settles down. The ineffable Kayleigh Donaldson recently wrote about this in the wake of Chris Evans’ marriage to Alba Baptista and some of his fans totally melting down about it (never mind the reaction to the internet’s favorite fancy boy, Timothee Chalamet, dating Kylie Jenner). 

Jeremy Allen White has been acting for a long time. He was on Shameless for nine hundred years. But The Bear has launched him into a new stratosphere of fame, and I feel like we’re dangerously close to JAW being “internet boyfriended” which can be a boost to a famous guy’s profile, but also might come with an overly clamorous fanbase. I don’t get the impression JAW’s fans are too out there right now, but someone asked in our first mailbag on The Squawk—subscribe if you haven’t already!—about crazy fandoms, and I wonder if another year, JAW will qualify. Especially if he keeps thirst trapping the internet like this. Jeremy, bro, dude, my guy. Don’t feed the bears.
