The internet is a powerful tool that can uncover secrets and crack difficult mysteries. Plus, there are a ton of cute cat videos. YouTuber Jeffree Star is currently toying with the internet’s collective mind.
Jeffree recently posted pictures of his new "NFL Boo" on social media. The photos do not give away the exact identity of his new boyfriend, so the internet has a mystery to solve. Naturally, they are up for the challenge.
Jeffree’s first clue came in the form of a tweet. He posted a picture of himself and his mystery boyfriend holding hands with their feet propped up on the seats across from them while on a plane to Wyoming.
“Goodbye LA, time to spend time with my #NFL boo in Wyoming ,” the caption accompanying it reads.
Jeffree’s second clue made it on both Instagram and Twitter. It was a classic mirror photo with his mystery boyfriend’s back facing the viewer.
“His team didn’t make it to the #SuperBowl but he’s 6’6 and plays perfect in the bedroom ,” Jeffree wrote.
The internet is all too eager and happy to work on cracking this case.
One user wrote:
“nobody:
me: FBI mode activated .”
Another agreed: “So like who’s setting up the whole search unit lmaooo.”
“I FIGURED IT OUT ITS CARL NASSIB Carl plays for buccaneers (didn’t make superbowl) Carl is the only openly gay and is 6’6 PROVE ME WRONG!!” wrote one fan. Many agreed with them, but this hypothesis was quickly disproven.
Linebacker Carl Nassib, who plays for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, is the only openly gay NFL player at the moment, so it was natural his name would be brought up in this case. He recently went public with his own boyfriend, Danish Olympic swimmer Søren Dahl, so he is a red herring. It is time to go back to the drawing board.
Fans had many other theories about who Jeffree’s love interest could be. “It’s Daniel Bellinger literally the exact same hair cut,” one fan mused. Another asked: “It’s Josh Allen?”
One fan used all their deduction reasoning skills to break it down for others. “Teams with orange in their colors: Browns, Bengals, Broncos, Dolphins, Bears. It’s not the Bengals because they were together yesterday and the Bengals played, so that’s a red herring and probably why Jeffree is posting this today to throw people off. The Browns’ colors are Brown and Orange. Jack Conklin and Ethan Pocic are the only white, 6’6 players on the Browns that also have hair like that Imma check the other teams though,” the fan wrote.
While the investigation is still ongoing, many fans are just happy to see Jeffree happy. “we love a happy jeffree ,” writes one user. “Jeffree is happy and that's all that matters right now,” concludes another user.
