Connor Storrie has broken the internet (again) this time
The “Heated Rivalry” star has appeared in a new video for Saint Laurent’s Fall campaign. The creative director, Anthony Vaccarello, posted the 35-second clip on Instagram teasing the new campaign.
Saint Laurent tapped Storrie to be a brand ambassador back in January. He sat beside Madonna on the front row of the brand’s spring/summer 2027 menswear show. Since the French brand snapped him up, he has been sporting their looks on the red carpet.
But everyone can’t stop talking about Storrie’s resemblance to a certain late “Dirty Dancing” actor…
Everyone Can’t Stop Talking About Connor Storrie’s Viral Video
The teaser for the fashion campaign is set to Milli Vanilli’s 1988 power ballad “I’m Gonna Miss You” and co-stars Blackpink’s Rosé and supermodel Liu Wen.
Shot by Talia Chetrit, the clip opens with a close-up of Storrie’s signature curls before the actor starts dancing. A spin reveals his jacket and 80s-era popped collar.
Fans online immediately speculated that the shoot took place right after the Met Gala in May, where Storrie made his debut in custom Vaccarello tailoring.
The recently released clip is expected to be part of a longer campaign set to roll out in the coming weeks.
But They Are Also Talking About His Celebrity Resemblance
When the clip dropped, everyone said the same thing… Doesn’t he look like Patrick Swayze?
Something about the 80s styling and darker curls made people instantly compare the actor to the “Ghost” star. That was before Storrie showed off his moves.
“All I can think is “so Patrick Swayze biopic when?” He looks so good,”a Reddit user wrote in a post.
“Just his dance moves from the neck up were enough to convince fans he’s giving Patrick Swayze in “Dirty Dancing.” wrote Entertainment Weekly when posting the video on Instagram.
“Connor Storrie in the new Yves Saint Laurent campaign is giving us major Patrick Swayze energy for 2026… and we are so obsessed. That said, Connor has a charisma and personality entirely his own, and that’s exactly why we can’t take our eyes off him. We couldn’t be more in love with this new internet boyfriend.” Folie Magazine wrote on their Instagram.
Although some eager-eyed fans have noticed that his smooth moves don’t match the Milli Vanilli song playing. Some have theorized that the campaign was supposed to feature a different track, which is why Storrie seems slightly out of time.
“Man, they really did that boy dirty by giving him music with a completely different BPM to groove to, he just looks like another white boy who has no sense of rhythm!” wrote a Reddit user.
Elsewhere, the 26-year-old is preparing to start filming season 2 of “Heated Rivalry,” which is expected to be released next Spring. He recently had a role in “Criminal Minds” and was cast in the A24 period film “Please.”
