“Who’s The Blonde Boy?”—Stray Kids’ Felix Trends Among Locals During The “2024 MET Gala”

The 2024 Met Gala is upon us and a new K-Pop idol is gaining the attention of locals!

This year, Stray Kids became the first K-Pop group to attend the invite-only event. Though they all slayed, non-fans in particular couldn’t help but notice Felix.

Those who did not know him began calling him “the blonde one” or the “blonde boy” thanks to his recognizable platinum blonde locks.

With his face and hair alone, Felix was “naturally on theme.” The 2024 MET Gala theme was “Garden of Time” based on J.G. Ballard‘s 1962 short story of the same name. Felix, they said, looked ethereal—just like a prince, fairy, or other fantasy book character on the red carpet.

now who’s this and why is his face naturally on theme??? the fairy features, the long braided blonde hair and the white outfit oh i’m gagged https://t.co/g9OPnIScFK

They noted that he “always captivates everyone around him.”

Everyone going crazy for "The Blonde Guy" really demonstrates how much impact Felix has on people. No matter what he does he always captivates everyone around him.
