The stars were out and shimmering at the Ultimate Fighting Championship 264 event over the weekend, prompting immediate questions on our end like…”Wait, people are that into UFC?” Call us naïve.
Among them were Sia and, more importantly, Jared Leto, who showed up to watch Dustin Poirier defeat Conor McGregor.
The Dallas Buyers Club and upcoming House of Gucci was definitely channeling that latter film, rocking big sunglasses, swanky blue neck scarf and necessary statement necklace.

Twitter had a field day comparing the look to some pop culture reference points, many of which are no longer relevant in the best way possible.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.

I think a lot of people attended the fight to see Conor McGregor get his a$$ handed to him more than their love of UFC. Though the latter is a huge probability.
Troyfight
can’t let go of “Dallas Buyers Club,” + his joker stint has def left him with a don’t give a fvck.
Man About Town
What “joker stint”?
Bromancer7
@Man About Town he played Joker in Suicide Squad, Birds of Prey, and the Snyder Cut of Justice League.
Dwight
I see Posh Spice.
frankcar1965
Oh my god yes! He looks like that manly snotty RBF.
spankt
If Alexis Cox was to be believed he’s a pretty fluid dude.
Prax07
Still waiting to see the dick pics that are supposedly out there somewhere. Had the biggest crush on him from My So Called Life way back when.

Jared is a bit of a media whore.

Jared – Sorry dude, they’ve already cast and filmed “Halston” on Netflix. You didn’t get the part.
Ken A.
I do love how people writing those IG posts think they’re being clever when it’s the opposite.

I’m confused as to who this guy is and if he ‘turned up to fight’ did he win?

Then read the article. It couldn’t be more clear who he is.
