Ben Lawson is celebrating his newly granted American citizenship, and he clearly already has the wardrobe down pat.
The Firefly Lane actor was dressed from head-to-toe in red, white and blue this week while attending the citizenship ceremony to officially become an American.
Originally from Australia, Lawson, 43, celebrated the achievement with a triumphant Instagram post, sharing a little bit about his experience since coming to the States.
"15 years ago I arrived on American shores, today I became an American," the Netflix star captioned the series of photos, which depicted him in a full-on American flag jumpsuit, complete with a matching red, white and blue sweat band and USA-themed sunglasses.
Posing in front of the North Los Angeles Street Federal Building, Lawson was seen waving a small American flag to celebrate the momentous occasion. He also looked ecstatic while posing for a selfie with a friend.
He notably also shared an official letter from the White House, which showed President Joe Biden welcoming Lawson as an official fellow American.
