10 Things The Bear's Jeremy Allen White Can't Live Without | GQ

[Music] hello gq thank you for having me i'm jeremy allen white these are my essentials so right here i have my uh moleskine uh journal i don't know what i have kind of written in here now uh some drawings it looks like from uh from my daughters but mostly it's for kind of like organizing my thoughts i have a hard time figuring out my days so i'll make a list in here and this is where i keep my scripts il besante they're really really beautiful they work in leather they also make bags and stuff i got my first one which is like kind of a darker leather from a really good friend gary goldman for my 21st birthday and i always have one of these on set with me i bought these for the whole cast of shameless as a wrap gift when we finished on the inside i had this put in it says um one bad turn deserves another if you're familiar with shameless there's like this staircase that goes down into the gallagher kitchen in the gallagher house and there was a little sign on it that said one bad turn deserves another and so i would stare at that sign all the time for 11 years so this is in all of them got uh i guess the last thing i worked on was the bear and i guess i was hanging onto the pilot episode for a long time oh tattoos i didn't know these were in here but uh these are all of carmi's tattoos from the bear i have a buddy benny shields who's a really wonderful tattoo artist and he helped me design all of them these angels uh i thought maybe carmi would have gotten when his brother was still alive uh that maybe he would have gotten for for his sister and his brother uh they're right here carmy's tattoos extras that's a pyrex with the world in it sou sense of urgency always i don't know if that's always on time i don't think i actually use this one but yeah it was interesting to kind of get to know a character through tattoos and really discuss where and why he got these things and kind of make discoveries about a character through that process i'd never done it before i think for carmi they're sort of a sort of an armor i don't think he felt that tough all the time and that got him here okay so um this is this is a new york mets hat not to be confused with a yankees hat a lot of people ask me if this was pre-distressed and very expensive it wasn't it's a normal hat i wear it a lot and i wash it a lot and it's just really beat i think it's honestly probably on its uh its last legs but i'm really gonna wear it until it's all done i grew up watching the yankees but my wife is truly a die hard mets fan uh so i switched up probably like seven years ago and started rooting for the mets um i guess that's love i've got my little like a weekender bag and these things pretty much live in that bag and i've got like probably like five or six notes in there from uh from my wife but if if i'm going anywhere she'll write me a note and she'll often times write a note from our three-year-old our three-year-old can't write yet so my wife will write one for her it's so nice you know when when you're missing home to have them close i usually have them on like the table right next to my bed and yeah i'll read them when i wake up before i go to bed middle of the day i love reading them um i miss them and it makes me think of them when i'm away and then these it's a little bit weird we ended up like uh a couple years ago with all these single socks and we didn't know what to do with them um so so my wife and i started taking them with us whenever we went anywhere our daughters have stuffed animals um that's their sort of safety blankets and uh and we have these safety socks um we love them it makes us feel close to them so um so yeah we take them around [Music] okay uh this is diptyque candle um i was introduced to these candles by a fancy friend a couple years ago i have them all over our house and whenever i go anywhere to do a job or or really go anywhere um i'm obviously missing home a lot um so i'll always pick these up uh just to give me that little sense of home yeah yeah yeah specifically the fig um that is that is my favorite another thing i i really take with me everywhere are these sneakers white on white nike cortez um i usually i'll keep like one pair that's kind of clean um in case i want to wear it to something nice um but then i definitely like the way that they look once they get beat up and i have like a kick around one as well that's just my everyday shoe nike stop making white on white uh cortez like a year ago um it's like a 60 shoe now they're on stockx for like 250 300. maybe you guys at gq could help me out i'm sure you know some people over at nike but yeah so this one is actually i think this is like a women's size 12. my best friend gabe gomez found these for me i love the shoe i love the shape of it it's super comfortable you can exercise in them it's been probably like six years of me wearing the shoe and i'll never stop so nike please help me out more more white on white nike cortez thank you this is a little speaker it's called a boombot rex i don't think they make them anymore um obviously there are a lot of good portable speakers out there um i really like this one it's super durable and i usually wear it while i'm riding my bike that's how i get around in new york i have a lot of friends and i know there's a lot of people out there that have their air pods in their ears while they're riding their bike i'm worried about you guys you've got to be paying attention to stuff this is nice it's got a really nice sound you can hear what you're listening to and make phone calls but you can also remain aware of what's going on around you which is important when you're riding your bike right now i'm listening to like a lot of gold link jimmy cook's on the playlist for this summer i've got you're the one on the playlist i've got some ll cool j around the way girl yeah a lot of a lot of new york artists okay so we have um s and b crunchy garlic oil um this is something that we found during the pandemic we started going out and getting these orders from uh like cookbook in la which is like a really lovely sort of like specialty grocery store and they threw this in the bag one day and yeah it's great and it goes on anything you can put it on sandwiches uh eggs um obviously like rice and like noodle dishes are really really great i discovered this before the bear came around uh and i was really useless in the kitchen so this was especially helpful since then we started the bear and i've learned a couple more things and yeah i will have this everywhere with me it's uh it's delicious i have these gloves you can pick them up anywhere they're like 299 399 really inexpensive i have a lot of them i'm always losing them i'll find a park with an outdoor gym that's how i like to exercise i'll bring some jump rope and i'll do some pull-ups push-ups dips all that stuff all that stuff can be pretty rough on your hands they make you look pretty serious i like exercising outside especially in new york in these uh in these outdoor uh gyms in the parks because there's always going to be someone there that's tougher than you so i find that i'll get sort of quietly competitive um and i'll end up training a little bit harder whenever you do pull-ups you should take your rings off so i'm going to talk a little bit about my jewelry [Music] this is really the first piece of jewelry that i ever started wearing that's just a nice little w my last name is white and i actually i bought this for my father for christmas but he's got really big fingers and they didn't fit so it became mine this is just a really simple little gold chain and on it here is a new york subway token i grew up here in new york uh my father had a big jar of these growing up in our apartment um and now everybody in the family has one my sister wears one around her neck my mother my wife does she's also from new york uh my dad has one this one's really sweet my wife had this one made um that's my daughter's name there that's ezzer and i'll give it uh to ezzy one day i'm sure so i'm just keeping it safe for until uh until she can she can put it on this one is this really really nice ring and in there it's just a e and a d for for my daughters um ezr and dolores i love the shape of it i love the shape of kind of like all our stuff it's like kind of masculine and feminine at the same time um and yeah that's uh that's my jewelry and my wedding ring is right here but that's all of it yeah facial fuel uh from keels i don't do a lot of stuff for my face uh i wash it with water warm water uh and then i put this stuff on um it's got spf it smells nice makes me feel good um i feel like with this i don't need much else even if that might not be completely true we were shooting the bear in chicago in january and february so i would be putting this on all throughout the day your skin gets really dry i love to go to um like bath houses so i always make sure i have this if i'm going to any of the korean spas in la or my favorite bath house the russian turkish bath house in this village here in new york a book it's important i always have a book with me this book is the one i'm kind of reading right now but i find it important to take a book with me even if i don't read it wherever i'm going you don't want to be out there looking like a bozo you should always have a book with you i doubt i will finish it i don't often finish books um but you should always have a book with you uh don't get caught out there traveling without a book
