Jared Leto recently responded with humor and charm to the long-standing social media comparisons linking his appearance to that of reality TV star Scott Disick.
In an entertaining exchange on Sirius XM's TikTok Radio, Leto - known for his roles in Dallas Buyers Club and Suicide Squad - addressed the buzz surrounding their uncanny resemblance.
During the interview with host Davis Burleson, aired on November 17, Leto was presented with a TikTok video featuring a user convinced of his twin-like similarity to the Kardashians star.
The Oscar-winning actor, seemingly taken aback, humorously expressed his surprise with a simple "Wow," followed by a dazed pause.
When Burleson pointed out that many users find them to look "identical," Leto's response was both witty and playful. "Really? Lucky me," he said, and after a brief pause, he graciously added, "Thank you."
The 51-year-old actor further mused on the phenomenon of people bearing strong resemblances, suggesting a possible genetic link. "So that would be nice. Because then I would have a rich relative. Because he's very wealthy, right? Yeah, that would be nice," Leto joked, adding a light-hearted twist to the conversation.
Although Leto and Disick, aged 40, have not been spotted together publicly, Leto has crossed paths with members of the Kardashian-Jenner family at various high-profile events.
Notably, in June, he was seated next to Kim Kardashian at the Louis Vuitton menswear spring/summer 2024 show during Paris Fashion Week. This followed a memorable encounter at the 2023 Met Gala, where Leto, donning a cat costume, chatted with Kim, Kendall Jenner, and Kylie Jenner. The group also shared a moment with Amazon founder Jeff Bezos at the 2019 Met Gala.
The physical comparisons between Leto and Disick have been a topic of discussion among fans on social media for years. Leto's lighthearted acknowledgment of these observations in the November 2023 Sirius XM interview adds a fresh and amusing perspective to this ongoing conversation.
Leto's response to the likeness to Disick is not just a testament to his sense of humor but also highlights his easy-going nature when dealing with public curiosity and social media chatter.
As an actor known for his transformative and often intense roles, this interaction offers fans a glimpse into Leto's more relaxed and approachable side, further endearing him to his audience.
Whether or not there's any truth to the resemblance claim, Leto's reaction ensures that the comparison remains a light-hearted and entertaining topic among fans.
