I give you, Karl Kugelmann, a 23-year-old model based in South Africa.

I discovered Karl after a couple of hours scrolling on TikTok. I usually don’t make it passed the For You Page, but if my interest is peaked I will inevitably delve deeper. Let’s just say it definitely peaked at this point. I gave him a follow (cause I’m still trying to crack that algorithm and we have to stick together) and into the abyss, I went.

Not only did he look like Ian Somerhalder (Damon Salvatore from Vampire Diaries, duh) and Disney’s Prince Eric, but also Matt Bomer (AHS), Tag Jones from Friends, Henry Cavil and I even see a little bit of 80’s Rob Lowe in there.

So much structure.

Naturally, my mind was blown and I spent the next undisclosed amount of time watching every one of his 165 videos. And it’s not just me who sees the resemblance, just ask anyone of his 2.8 million followers.

Karl’s feed is a mixture of lipsyncs, fashion and lifestyle vids and of course his luxe model life.

Check out some of his TikToks (my favorites) below. This is the iso content I signed up for.
