Selena Gomez is a renowned pop star, and people would kill to be in one of her music videos. The Euphoria star Jacob Elordi sent shockwaves on social media when he brought up the Calm Down singer’s name in his SNL sketch; even Rachel McAdams was all beamed up. The skit was named Acting Class, and Elordi played the part of an accomplished actor called Trevis Von Show. When aspiring actors ask him about his big break Trevis aka Jacob, said, “I flew to LA to give the whole ‘Hollywood thing’ a shot, and as I walked off the plane, Selena Gomez came to me, said I was gorgeous and asked me to play her boyfriend in a music video, and then that led to the movies and everything…”
