100% Pure Love Featuring Cara Delevingne and Jeremy Pope | Calvin Klein Pride 2024
Speak his name up with your chest.
Multihyphenate, heartthrob, and overall superstar Jeremy Pope is the face of Calvin Klein's 2024 This Is Love Pride campaign alongside Cara Delevingne. In the official video launching this Pride collection, Pope and Delevingne lip sync to Crystal Waters' "100% Pure Love."
Between his standout roles in The Inspection, Hollywood, and Pose, as well as his two dazzling new songs "U, Lost" and "What I Gotta Do," Pope is now also the face of this CK campaign shot by Gordon von Steiner. The campaign features Pope and Delevingne alongside costars Stella Maxwell, Janick Heilijgers, Tinglei Liu, Monet Lauren, Vinson Fraley, Greta Hofer, Diego Pasillas, Mauro van de Kerkhof, and Charlie Knepper.
But that's not all! Out also had the chance to speak with Pope and got exclusive access to behind-the-scenes pictures of the actor while shooting this campaign.

"It's a marker in my own journey of self-love and self-expression," Pope tells Out about starring in this Pride photo shoot for Calvin Klein. "Years ago, it would've brought fear or anxiety into my heart and mind thinking about being so visible in this way. What might people think about me or say about me?"
The actor and singer continues, "But I've evolved and I've grown. I feel so fortunate to have lived and survived through some of the toughest moments of my life to arrive at this moment that is about celebrating love, power, my uniqueness, and my gift. I think that my standing firm in that will hopefully be a visible, tangible representation of what self-expression looks like, and feels like, for people out there who might see this campaign."

Calvin Klein has also committed to donating funds to organizations like Transgender Law Center and ILGA World. When asked to reflect on what Pride Month means to him in 2024, Pope explained:
"Pride Month in 2024 — but really, every year — is a moment for us to honor all of the ways in which the people that have come before us have marched to create opportunity for equality and to create spaces that are safe for the 'other' experience."
He continues, "I say 'other' because there are many unique and beautiful experiences, but when we talk about Pride specifically, we are talking about all of the pioneers that have come before us: a beautiful celebration of love, honoring the truth, and all ways of life."

For Pope, the general feeling of Pride is about authenticity, celebration, and strength.
"It always reminds me of the beauty and uniqueness of all of us individually, no matter how you identify," the actor adds. "You find so many people stepping up and stepping forward… folks stepping further into their own identity."
Pope concludes, "I always feel like when you know better, you do better. I hope that Pride Month is a time to learn about ourselves and learn about our community, and for other people [to learn about how they] can be supportive as allies — and in that knowing, be better for each other."
