This comment landed him in the “hot”-seat.
A sports fan on TikTok has been ripped up and down online after describing what he believes is the “hottest” woman’s outfit ever in a video with 20.8 million views.
“This is the hottest thing a girl can wear,” Nicklaus Daniel declared in the inflammatory clip. “Literally anybody who wears this looks good.”
The getup “makes my mouth water,” the TikTokker added in the caption.
The content creator recalled how he was sitting courtside at a Boston Celtics game and saw a woman he suspected was a “former player’s wife” because “she looked good.”
“She was wearing this combo, which is the lethal combo,” Daniel recalled. He described how she sported a “slicked back ponytail,” big gold hoop earrings, a black top and, most notably, an “oversized” Celtics team jacket and Air Jordans.
“That combo right there, I don’t care who you are, you look hot,” declared the armchair couture critic.
He then implored TikTok viewers for help identifying this smoldering mystery woman, whom he described as “blonde,” and in her 20s or 30s, adding that she was sitting in the second row behind the goal.
Viewers speculated that said gal was Emma Pritchard, the wife of Boston Celtics player Payton Pritchard, because she posted a video in which she flaunted a similar outfit to the one he described — although others weren’t so sure.
Either way, many fans weren’t so thrilled with Daniel’s fashion tips, which they deemed “embarrassing” and misogynistic.
“I’ll never take fashion advice from a man,” scoffed one female commenter, while another wrote, “Who cares about what men like anyway?”
“Thank god I don’t dress for the male gaze,” shot another detractor.
Others deemed the so-called illustrious ensemble boring.
One fashion policewoman dubbed it the most “basic, commercially trendy and boring outfit that everybody already knows about.”
“So basically what we wore in high school,” said another.
“If I slick back my hair I look like a colonial boy working towards his woodworking apprenticeship,” quipped one TikTok wit.
However, a few defenders flocked to Daniel’s defense.
“Why everyone in comments mad about it???” said one defender. “Nothing wrong with giving credit to pretty styles.”
“I am genuinely so embarrassed while reading these comments,” declared another. “Like why the need to immediately hate and troll. I agree that combo prolly [sic] looks fire on every woman.”
This isn’t the first time a male content creator has gotten in hot water for airing their sartorial opinions online.
Stirling Cooper, a self-proclaimed sex coach, was lambasted over the summer after deeming women in jeans the “least feminine thing” he could think of.
