Lewis Capaldi appears to have demonstrated one of his most remarkable moves to date – a phone call from none other than Kim Kardashian.
The chart-topping Brit award recipient is renowned for his hilarious social media exploits, but he may have shared the most unexpected link-up of all this week.
The 26-year-old, who is currently on tour in the United States in support of his upcoming record of the same name, went to Instagram to share photos of what appeared to be the reality TV personality and entrepreneur waiting for him to pick up.
The singer-songwriter grinned as he showed the camera the screen of his phone, which carried Kim’s name in the caller ID area, while wearing a black polo neck and big wire-rimmed spectacles.
‘Discussing my upcoming skims deal @kimkardashian,’ he wrote in the caption, referring to the 42-year-old’s famous shapewear company, which frequently employs star models.
Lewis then continued to perform a series of postures while taking the call, including a side lunge by a chair, a side0angle shot, and a photo of him gesturing at his phone.
He also demonstrated that he’d gone full tech innovator and executive with his attire, posting full-length photos showing his jeans, belt, and sneakers.
Hitmaker for Some You Loved Lewis’ admirers flocked to the comments area to express their appreciation for his post, appearance, and hoped-for cooperation.
‘It’s the Steve Jobs look. She loves man who dress simple [sic],’ commented one follower.
‘Lewis capaldi x skims is what the world needs tbh,’ added another.
A third fan wrote: ‘You are on 🔥 Kimmy K doesn’t know how lucky she is 😉’, while someone else proffered: ‘Keeping Up With Lewis Capaldi.’
Yeah, we could make that work.
Kim, who is presently in Tokyo, Japan with her children (where they visited an adorable hedgehog café), has yet to react to Lewis’ post, so we are left in the dark about the nature of their interaction.
Lewis, whose new Netflix documentary is now available, is known for being honest about his struggles with mental health and conditions such as Tourette’s syndrome, which causes a person to produce involuntary sounds and motions known as tics.
The star has disclosed that the only thing that triggers it for him right now is performing, and that there is a’very real chance’ that he will have to move back from his job as a performer if it worsens.
In his documentary, he also confesses that one of the side affects of his medication has caused him to battle to “get a hard-on.”
