'The Bear,' 'Shameless' star Jeremy Allen White strips down to briefs in Calvin Klein campaign

Grab a tall drink of water.

Jeremy Allen White, whose role in "The Bear" has everyone saying "yes, chef," is the star of Calvin Klein's spring 2024 campaign and his muscles are the star of the show.

White strips down from a white tank top and gym shorts to the brand's signature white boxer briefs as he runs up to the rooftop of a New York City building for the campaign video. At the top, he flexes his strength as he does a shirtless pull-up and climbs to another platform to lounge on a couch.

The video, directed by Mert Alas, is set to the tune of Lesley Gore's "You Don't Own Me."

In addition to the video, Calvin Klein shared several black-and-white photos of the "Iron Claw" actor in various states of undress on Instagram. More photos are to be released throughout the week, according to the clothing brand.

White catapulted into fame for his role as Lip Gallagher in "Shameless" and continues to capture attention (and lust) as chef Carmen "Carmy" Berzatto in "The Bear." The latter role scored him a Golden Globe in 2023 for best performance by an actor in a musical or comedy television series and a nomination for the 2024 ceremony on Sunday.

"Thanks for watching. I don't know, I'm flattered. It surprises me, truly," White said in an interview with People in November when asked about how he feels about the internet's thirst for his appearance.

He added: "But I'll take it! I'll take what I can get!"

White also told Vanity Fair in February that he doesn't "pay too much attention" to the "yes, chef" memes and commentary on social media.

"My mom tells me what they’re saying on Twitter, which is nice," he said. "I've been acting since I was 18. I was on this show ('Shameless') for 11 years that was popular, but I wasn't getting as much attention then as I am now."

White added: "I feel very lucky that everything’s been this gradual because I've been able to find my footing already. I feel really bad for a young actor or somebody who just hasn’t had much experience when all of a sudden they break through; it could be more overwhelming in that case."

Jeremy Allen White reflects on response to Calvin Klein ad after Golden Globes win

White won the best actor Golden Globe for his Season 2 role on "The Bear" on Jan. 7, but all reporters backstage wanted to know about was White's steamy Calvin Klein underwear ad that showed off his physique.

Asked how surreal it was to have people talking more about his abs than his acting, White admitted, “It’s been a weird couple of days.”

White made it clear that he was honored more for the acting award than the abdominal admiration.

“I am more proud of this,” White said of his Golden Globe.
