In a shocking twist in an already impressive career, tennis prodigy Carlos Alcaraz has stepped onto the fashion world as the new face and frankly also the body of Calvin Klein’s latest underwear campaign, “Calvins or Nothing.” This unexpected move created quite a buzz on the internet sphere, leading to an internet storm of reactions, both positive and expectedly so, the awkward.

At just 20 years old, Carlos Alcaraz has achieved what many players can only dream of. With two Grand Slam on his mantle and World no. 1 rank in tennis, his rise has been rapid. However, he doesn’t seem interested in merely winning on the tennis court, but off court as well.

The young Spaniard’s rise has been meteoric, and he just doesn’t seem content to dominate the tennis courts. He is currently making his territory in the fashion world, and his first appearance as the face of Calvin Klein’s underwear campaign has created quite a sensation.

When the first campaign images hit the internet, fans weren’t sure what to make of them. The reaction was a mixture of shock, confusion, and, let’s be honest, a little awkward. Some fans took to the internet to voice their opinions whereas others just shared funny GIFs, and the results were, well, unique:

One fan shared in horror – “whooo was in charge of this campaign 😭 that full video he posted to his ig stories should have never left his drafts 😭”

In complete denial, one fan shared, “I don’t like this. Why his management allowed him to do these underwear campaigns, I don’t know. Doesn’t sit right.”

Another fan just shared a one word reaction, yawping, “STOP.”

A fan shares his disbelief over the picture, “Why would you do this to him 😭😔”

Another fan shared a GIF, quoting “Scary ohhhh😱😳”

A fan, unable to erase the ‘unprompted’ image on their feed from their mind, stating, “no, bc why do ppl keep bringing this up unpromptedly? I keep forgetting this even happened lol”

A fan shared the GIF of an iconic moment of the TV Sitcom FRIENDS.

Another fan just continued sharing GIFs.

Obviously, the internet has its opinions, and not all are singing the praises of this unexpected move. But, as far as the saying goes, any publicity is good publicity, and this campaign certainly got people talking. Thus getting the job done, regardless of which skewed way.
