Pillsbury added that Elordi was amused by a 2024 TikTok video showing him signing autographs in Central Park under Elordi’s name while having his portrait drawn by an artist.
“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.’”
In that video, a woman approached Pillsbury, mistaking him for Elordi, and asked for his autograph. When she wondered what movie he had starred in, he simply replied, “Euphoria,” earning a delighted response from her.
