In an interview on the red carpet for E!, Williams expressed excitement about his outfit, stating he felt fantastic in his Armani attire and Bulgari jewelry. Williams also joked that he isn’t overwhelmed by “the massive scale” of the show’s popularity but hedoesfeel overwhelmed by the number of emails he receives these days.

The duo, who portray opposing hockey players on fictional professional teams in the series available on HBO Max, which is adapted from Rachel Reid’s book series, have been all over (and beyond) in recent months. To support the show, which is based on the author Rachel Reid’s novel of the same title, Williams and Storrie have captured the internet’s attention through viral interviews, steamy photo sessions, and a variety of party appearances.

Williams, who portrays Canadian hockey player Shane Hollander, made an appearance onThe Tonight Show Featuring Jimmy FallonOn January 7, he not only showed how he stretches like an actual hockey player, but also revealed to host Jimmy Fallon the undergarments he and Storrie wore for the sensual performance.

“They refer to it as a c— sock,” Williams said to the host.

The crowd chuckled as Fallon made a face, pointing out that this episode featured “the most bleeping we’ve ever done in the history of”The Tonight Show.”

They refer to it as a modesty garment,” Williams continued. “But by the end, they stopped trying with any of them.

Fallon questioned the actor whether he and Storrie were “wearing anything else” during their scenes.

No, that’s terrible,” Williams said, then continued about the intimate garment: “It kind of grabs the berries.

As Williams started demonstrating how the clothing functions, Fallon reassured his guest that he didn’t need to do that.

Nevertheless, Williams informed him that there is a “motion” that must be completed to gain entry into the performance, to which Fallon referred to the on-set intimacy coordinator.

“And then there’s the entire reverse side, which is out,” Williams concluded.

Meanwhile, Storrie, who portrays Russian hockey player Ilya Rozanov inHeated Rivalry, was chosen to help reveal the nominees for this year’s Actor Awards (previously called the SAG Awards). Joining Janelle James ofAbbott Elementary, Storrie announced this year’s nominees — but also acknowledged his early aspirations to become an actor. He mentioned his childhood YouTube videos (which have gained significant attention recently) by reenacting one of them for the audience, including expressing his desire to pursue acting in the future.

At the gathering, Storrie mentioned that he intentionally kept those videos—both embarrassing and touching—on YouTube as his fame grows.

“It’s strange to witness their popularity, [but] in reality, it was a decision to keep them online,” Storrie mentioned.

I didn’t have access to them,” he added. “A fan contacted me and said, ‘Hey, I know someone at YouTube who can assist in removing them,’ and I went through the entire process, but honestly, it felt like the conclusion of a personal acceptance ceremony.

I believe when you’re around 12 years old, you kind of watch that and think, ‘Oh, awkward, I don’t want to see it,’ but I’m not sure. It felt good to say, ‘Yes, that was me, and this is who I am now,’ ” he added. “And it feels good to embrace that.
