Acting nonchalant while Paul Mescal bowls beside you? These TikTokers nailed it
While clearly excited to run into the Gladiator II star out and about in London, the group of friends opted to play it cool over fangirling.
Sharing the short clip to social media, the moment quickly went viral, garnering over 400K views and counting. These TikTok users have shared their hilarious reaction to running into none other than Paul Mescal while out at their local bowling alley. Pic:Soundtracked to Party 4 U by Charli XCX, the video shows a brief clip of Paul bowling a strike followed by clips of the friend group acting unbothered by his presence.
TikTok user @laurennntaylorr aptly captioned the video: 'pov acting nonchalant when paul mescal is bowling next to you.'
Fans of the star were quick to take to the comments, with many jealous of the chance interaction.
'I would honestly let him hit me with the bowling ball,' one viewer joked, while another added: 'Nah you best believe I'd win him over with my bowling skills.'
'I'd be the opposite of whatever nonchalant is. i'd be chalant,' a third confessed.
'Seeing paul mescal at a bowling alley is one of the worst things that could ever happen to me mentally that would change the trajectory of my life a million times over,' a fourth penned.
Elsewhere, Paul was visibly emotional late last month after his latest film received a nine-minute standing ovation at the Cannes Film Festival.
The Maynooth man starts alongside Josh O'Connor in queer romance The History of Sound, which premiered at the iconic film festival.
The film, which spans over a few decades, was director by Oliver Hermanus and sees Paul play talented singer Lionel who leaves his family and meets David (played by O'Connor) for a brief period.

Mescal 'so lucky' to get All-Ireland tickets as he joins Blackmore on the BBC
Paul Mescal joked how he was 'so lucky' to get free All-Ireland final tickets as he featured on BBC's coverage of Sunday's decider. The British public broadcaster showed Cork v Tipperary live on TV across the UK, with Mescal at Croke Park as part of their coverage. "All-Ireland final day is one of the most special days in the calendar and to be here with dad, we're so lucky to be getting free tickets to an All-Ireland final," he stated. The actor added: "I'm so glad it's being shown across the UK because it is a huge cultural moment every year. It's a massive event for Irish people across the world. It's not just the people living in Ireland, it's for the diaspora and everybody else." The former Kildare minor footballer's father joined him at Croke Park and said: "This is the pinnacle of Irish sport. It is the absolute pinnacle and you have to be here to fully get the atmosphere." Singer-songwriter Tom Grennan, whose father is from Offaly, and recently retired jockey Rachael Blackmore, a Tipperary native, were also part of the BBC's star-stunned line-up. Grennan, attending his first All-Ireland final, commented: "This is amazing. This has been a dream of mine to come to an All-Ireland. "I've got my dad with me. He has worn the Offaly shirt, but to be here and just to see everybody mixing... like if you saw this at a North London derby that wouldn't be the case. You'd have one half and one half where everybody's mixes, a sea of different colours. It's a beautiful thing."

The 32-year-old, whose real name is Charlotte Aitchison, could be seen wearing her wedding dress, and the dark sunglasses she has become known for following the release of her latest album, in a post on TikTok. The TikTok read: 'When George isn't crying when he sees me walking down the aisle.' Charli confirmed in the caption that 'luckily' the 35-year-old drummer did cry. In a separate post captioned 'bridal party energy' Daniel could be seen wearing his wife's veil, while The Dare, who produced Charli's track Guess and whose real name is Harrison Smith, could also be seen at the party. The wedding reportedly took place at Hackney Town Hall in London on Saturday, with the pair being spotted taking pictures with friends and family outside the venue, on social media. The pair first shared photos of their engagement in 2023, and have worked together on a number of occasions collaborating on Charli track Spinning, before Daniel was credited as a co-producer and co-writer on two songs on Brat. Daniel has also performed the viral 'Apple dance' at one of his wife's London shows. Following the release of the Brat album, Charli's infectious electronic-pop tracks soared up the charts and inspired a trend, with fans embracing the 'Brat summer' cultural movement. The accolades followed, and in March she dominated the Brit Awards, winning five categories including songwriter of the year. She also secured album of the year, artist of the year, dance act, and song of the year for a version of her track Guess featuring Billie Eilish. In February she picked up three awards at the Grammys and she was named songwriter of the year at The Ivors in May. She recently performed at this year's Glastonbury Festival and at her own day festival in London's Victoria Park. Daniel's band The 1975 are completed by singer Matty Healy, guitarist Adam Hann, and bass player Ross MacDonald, they are best known for tracks such as Chocolate, Love Me and The Sound.
