Connor’s First Met Gala
Storrie opened up to GQ about attending his first Met Gala while getting ready earlier in the day, saying he was “feeling confident” about his look. “It’s super-duper YSL, super Saint Laurent,” he added.
“I’m really not nervous, to be honest with you. I feel like people have explained to me a million times exactly what’s going to happen, and I’m like, I still don’t really know what that looks like,” he told the outlet. “I’m excited to see everyone’s looks. I’m excited to meet some people that I haven’t met before. I mean, a lot of people go, right?”
He added that he was excited to run into Zoe Kravitz and co-star Hudson Williams at the event.
“I think it’s going to be a beautiful zoo. It’s going to be some chaos, I can imagine,” he continued. “But yeah, I mean, I feel good. In these rooms, I feel like I’m able to just be myself and flow and move and chat and you just naturally fall into stuff. “
Storrie also acknowledged that the women attending the event “have it much harder than I do” when it comes to their looks.
“I hear stories of girls being in their cars for an hour not being able to sit,” he told GQ. “I’m sure some of them have started whatever extravagant hair and makeup they have six hours before we even have to get ready to go. So I think comparatively to a lot of other people who are involved, I think I have it pretty easy.”
