from Joey King to Kaia Gerber

Jacob Elordi doesn’t have much in common with his volatile character in “Euphoria” — aside from his success with the ladies.
The actor rose to fame in 2018 and has dated his fair share of high-profile stars since.
From Zendaya to Olivia Jade Giannulli, keep scrolling to learn more about the hunky “Frankenstein” star’s love life.
Joey King: 2017- 2018
Elordi and co-star Joey King fell in love in 2017 while shooting Netflix’s “The Kissing Booth,” in which they played love interests.
In a 2018 interview with Bello, King admitted she thought Elordi was “very cute” when they first met and the pair became fast friends before exploring something romantic.
“It was such an interesting experience meeting your boyfriend on set because you spend so much time together and become so close so fast,” she explained. “We were spending 17 hours a day together, and all of us would hang out after work and watch movies together and stuff. It was great.”
Although the pair called it quits in 2018 after just one year of dating, they went on to film two more movies together and have had nothing but nice things to say about each other in the years since.
In a joint Entertainment Tonight interview in 2020, King explained that she doesn’t feel the need to give people an “explanation” as to why they split — which Eloridi dittoed.
The following month, the actress told Howard Stern, “I think it’s a good thing we dated. … I learned the most I’ve ever learned in my life from him. I think that it’s awesome to date someone in your field who gets it, but doing the same exact thing as somebody is tough. It’s really tough.”
Cari Flowers: 2019
A year after his split from King, Elordi was linked to model Cari Flowers.
The pair sparked romance rumors in the summer of 2019 after Flowers tagged the “Wuthering Heights” star in an Instagram photo, insinuating he was the one behind the camera.
Additionally, she posted a since-deleted photo dump of her “friends in Australia,” which included a shirtless photo of Elordi as well as a snap of the duo locking lips, per Elite Daily.
However, the model deleted any trace of Elordi from her feed less than a month later.
Zendaya: 2019- 2020
Elordi decided to mix business with pleasure once again in 2019 when he started dating “Euphoria” co-star Zendaya.
While neither star ever spoke out about their rumored romance, they were photographed vacationing together in Greece in August 2019.
That year, the “Dune” star reportedly traveled Down Under to spend Thanksgiving with Elordi and his family.
When the pair attended the American Australian Arts Awards in 2020, the actress called Elordi her “best friend.”
After the pair were photographed kissing while out and about in Manhattan, sources told E! News they had been “inseparable” for months.
“They … have been making time for each other in between projects,” an insider told the outlet. “Jacob has met Zendaya’s family and everyone adores him. They have a lot of fun together and have a lot in common.”
While it’s unclear exactly when the pair called it quits, they appear to still be on good terms and continued to work together on their hit HBO show.
Zendaya, notably, is engaged — and rumored to already be married — to her “Spider-Man” co-star Tom Holland.
Kaia Gerber: 2020- 2021
Elordi was first linked to model Kaia Gerber in September 2020 after the pair were seen holding hands in New York City, with the couple’s first public outing just so happening to fall on Zendaya’s birthday.
Despite speculation there was “nothing serious” going on between the two, Elordi joined Gerber and her family on vacation later that same month.
Soon after, they went Instagram official by showing off their couple’s Halloween costumes: Elvis and Priscilla Presley.
(Ironically, Gerber started dating “Elvis” actor Austin Butler in December 2021 and Elordi was later cast to play the King of Rock & Roll in “Priscilla.”)
Although they rarely spoke out about their romance, the pair were often seen out and about in public and even sharing clothes.
In May 2021, Gerber finally opened up about the pair’s sweet relationship.
“Being able to be with someone I trust, where we don’t want anything from each other, having a safe, steady relationship like that, has really opened my eyes to the possibilities of love and what it feels like to love without conditions,” Gerber told Vogue. “Lust is touching other people or wanting them, but love is really seeing someone.”
In September of that year, she and Elordi made their red carpet debut at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures Opening Gala.
Despite their deep connection, the pair called it quits in November 2021.
While a source confirmed to Page Six at the time that the twosome were no longer together, they insisted things were “amicable” between the exes.
In fact, during an interview with Men’s Health magazine published right after their split, Elordi praised Gerber for “handling herself wonderfully publicly” and teaching him “how to deal” with fame.
Olivia Jade Giannulli: 2021- 2025
Just one month after Elordi and Gerber split, the actor jumped into a relationship with Olivia Jade Giannulli.
The duo sparked dating speculation after photographers snapped them grabbing coffee together in Los Angeles before driving off in Elordi’s Range Rover.
However, sources told Us Weekly at the time that the romance was “casual.”
“They both got out of relationships recently so they’re not rushing into anything serious. So far it’s going well and there’s sparks between them.”
Although they decided to keep their romance out of the public eye, they were often spotted on walks with their dogs around Los Angeles.
The pair decided to go their separate ways in August 2022, only to rekindle their romance in May 2023.
At the time, the twosome was seen getting cozy while out and about in Los Angeles. Then, in June, they were spotted soaking up the sun in a resort town near Portofino, Italy.
The duo were hit with breakup reports once again in January 2024; however, sources told Page Six they were still going strong.
By October 2025, they were “fully over.”
Bianca Finch: March 2023
During Elordi’s time apart from Giannulli, the actor was romantically linked to model Bianca Finch.
The pair were seen canoodling at a park in LA. During the picnic, Elordi whipped out his camera to take photos of the red-headed beauty.
However, things between the two seemingly fizzled quickly.
Kendall Jenner: 2026
Reports surfaced in April 2026 that Elordi had been dating Kendall Jenner for months after allegedly being introduced by the model’s sister Kylie Jenner.
Kylie, notably, is in a relationship with Timothée Chalamet and was reportedly “around Jacob a lot during Timothée’s award season marathon because Jacob was nominated for ‘Frankenstein’ and Timothee was nominated for ‘Marty Supreme.’”
Kendall and Elordi initially sparked social media chatter over claims they were “making out” at Justin Bieber’s weekend one Coachella 2026 afterparty.
Reps for the couple did not respond to Page Six’s request for comment at the time.

Usher boots fan off stage after her painfully awkward response to his seductive dance moves

Usher quickly put a stop to sexily serenading a fan onstage after she got visibly uncomfortable.
In a now-viral moment from the singer’s performance in Nashville on The R&B Tour with Chris Brown on Saturday, a woman from the audience got pulled onstage as the chosen fan Usher sings to. But as a shirtless Usher started singing to her, she looked painfully uncomfortable, though he continued to try to interact with her by lightly touching her chin and face.
But when he tried to get her to recline on the onstage bed and she stiffly moved back, the 47-year-old singer pulled away.
“I don’t think she want to be on the stage, huh?” he asked the audience, looking bewildered.
Eventually, the “Yeah!” singer stepped away from her completely and waved his hand backwards towards the stage in a signal to bring the fan off, looking annoyed as some fans began to boo.
The fan later took to social media to clap back at criticism she received, responding to comments that she should have never agreed to go onstage if she didn’t want to be there.
“First off NOBODY is declining to go on stage,” she wrote. “I looked good asf, you think I wasn’t going to let THOUSANDS of people see me?”
She shared that she and her mom had floor seats to the show, and she was moved up to the VIP section before the concert even started due to “pretty privileges.”
“They don’t say who you’re going up there for!” she wrote. “Y’all wanted me to go up there and f–k him atp?”
On Sunday, she posted selfies, and pointedly captioned her post, “Unbothered 😘.”
But she continued to defend herself on her Instagram Stories, insisting her attitude wasn’t “nasty.”
“Y’all aren’t gonna get on the internet calling me out my name and disrespecting me and expect me to keep it cool!” she expressed, adding, “Don’t think that yall are gonna bully me about an experience that yall didn’t get!”
Usher is known for his spicy concert interactions with fans. His bodyguard hilariously went viral in 2024 for seemingly looking disgusted on the Past Present Future Tour, during the part of the singer’s show when he would let audience members seductively eat cherries.
Usher’s co-headliner, Chris Brown, also went viral in September 2025 but for an entirely different reaction that he got to pulling a fan onstage — that fan being Travis Kelce’s ex Kayla Nicole.
Brown, 37, gave Nicole, 34, a sensual lap dance while singing his 2007 hit, “Take You Down,” during the singer’s Breezy Bowl XX Tour stop in Los Angeles, prompting mixed reaction online. Some fans thought the two went too far, while others praised Nicole for seizing the moment.

John Cusack reveals why he stepped away from Hollywood after decades of films

John Cusack opened up about why he’s largely taken a step back from Hollywood.
The “Being John Malkovich” star, 60, said he wanted to tell stories without studio executives weighing in, prompting him to write his upcoming graphic novel “Momo.”
“I always thought [graphic novels] were the closest things to film, really,” he told Variety at San Diego Comic-Con on Friday. “You’re picking out shots, they’re so cinematic.”
Cusack explained he turned to writing because he “didn’t [want to] negotiate telling a story.”
“When you ask somebody to put $20 million or $30 million into a bank account [for a film], they want to have an opinion and they’re afraid and all that stuff,” he said.
Instead, he teamed up with illustrator Ignacio Noé to create “Momo” on their own terms.
“This was just like, I wrote it, and I said, ‘I like the story,’ and then I got this beautiful, wonderful artist, Ignacio Noé, to do the illustrations and so nobody edited anything I wrote or that he drew,” Cusack said.
“So it’s really a piece of work that was just done by two people. It was just me and Ignacio’s story, and that doesn’t happen today.”
“There’s no bull, and there’s no committee. There’s no computer up in Seattle that’s poll testing it,” he added.
“Momo” — Cusack’s first graphic novel — is set to be released on Sept. 29.
The story follows two fugitives in 1972 who set out to recover an ancient artifact for TV icon Jackie Gleason.
The actor spent decades as one of Hollywood’s most recognizable leading men, starring in “Grosse Pointe Blank,” “High Fidelity” and “Con Air,” but his acting career has become increasingly selective in recent years.
He appeared in the 2025 films “Fog of War” and the Mandarin-language film “Detective Chinatown 1900” after starring in the Chinese espionage thriller “Decoded” in 2024.
Before that, his only screen credits since 2020 were the action thriller “Pursuit” and Amazon’s dystopian series “Utopia.”
Cusack has been outspoken about the state of Hollywood for years.
“My friend Joe Roth ran Disney [until 2000],” he told the Guardian in 2014. “He made things like ‘The Rock’ and ‘Con Air’ to make shareholders happy, but then he also gave six or seven slots to people he liked.
“I got to make ‘High Fidelity’ and ‘Grosse Pointe Blank.’ Spike Lee got to make ‘Summer of Sam.’ Wes Anderson got to make ‘Rushmore.’ I had that memory of film and that’s gone.”
“Now it’s six for them — with a committee cutting the film who weren’t part of making it – and maybe one for you,” he added.
Cusack isn’t the only member of his family to step away from the spotlight.
His older sister, actress Joan Cusack, 63, made her first red-carpet appearance since 2015 in May when she attended the London premiere of “Toy Story 5,” ending an 11-year absence from public events.
“I feel so honored to have worked in this industry for a long time,” the actress told Variety in June. “But it’s also great to live your life and raise your kids and be in Chicago and be a normal person.”

Kelly Clarkson shares rare love life update

Kelly Clarkson defended her right to remain single during a recent Las Vegas residency show.
“People are like, ‘Oh, why are you single?’ And I’m like, ‘First of all, there are a lot of people out here making single look real good,’” the talk show host told the crowd Friday at her “Studio Sessions” show at Caesars Palace, per social media footage.
“And if you didn’t really understand what I meant by that, it’s like you see relationships and you’re like, ‘I am so glad I’m going home alone.’”
She jokingly added, “You know what’s not happening in my house? That s–t.”
“If you are in a relationship, the hardest part I feel like is just keeping that fire alive and still dating,” the “American Idol” winner continued. “And, like, still making it feel magical and not monotonous.”
The “Miss Independent” hitmaker, 44, has kept her dating life under wraps since she finalized her divorce from late ex-husband Brandon Blackstock in 2022.
Blackstock — who shared daughter River Rose, 12, and son Remy, 10, with the pop star — died in August 2025 at the age of 48 after battling melanoma, an aggressive form of skin cancer.
Though she returned to “The Kelly Clarkson Show” that September, Page Six reported in January that the Grammy winning songstress would be ending the daytime talk show.
The mom of two confirmed the impending end of her series in February, writing in a social media statement that there had “been so many amazing moments and shows over these seven seasons.”
She added that she’s “forever grateful and honored to have worked alongside the greatest band and crew you could hope for” and acknowledged “all the talent and inspiring people who have shared their time and lives with us.”
Clarkson wrote that it was “not an easy decision” to step away, and noted that she felt it’s “necessary and right for this next chapter of our lives” to prioritize her children.
The show will wrap up and air its final episodes this fall and her summer Las Vegas residency runs through Aug. 15.
Clarkson also released her new single, “I’d Be Lyin’,” on July 17.
Prior to Blackstock’s passing, Clarkson — who filed for divorced from the producer in 2020 and saw the legal matter settled in 2022 — addressed why she isn’t dating.
“Dating can be very difficult, which is why I don’t,” she told her Las Vegas audience in July 2025.
Clarkson said at the time that since dating “is hard anyway,” it can be a “dumpster fire” when you “add a spotlight.”
