When it comes to trends that have taken the internet by storm, one of the most recent and unexpected is the viral trend of “Jacob Elordi’s Bathwater” candles. The trend originates from a scene in the movie Saltburn, where Elordi’s character is seen in a bathtub, leading to a shocking moment where another character, Oliver (Barry Keoghan), drinks the bathwater. This particular scene quickly gained immense popularity on TikTok, garnering over 89 million views.
What’s even more surprising is the revelation about the contents of the said bathwater. The production designer disclosed that the bathwater was actually a concoction made up of yogurt, milk, and water. This detail added an extra layer of intrigue to the scene and contributed to the hype surrounding it.
As for Jacob Elordi, he’s been riding the wave of this viral trend with a sense of humor. He’s even slated to appear on Saturday Night Live, where the topic of the bathwater candles is bound to come up.
Origin of the Bathwater Candles
The bathtub scene in Saltburn didn’t just gain popularity; it sparked a whole new trend – bathwater candles. Inspired by the scene, creative fans began crafting candles that supposedly smell like the infamous bathwater.
Reaction from the Film’s Cast
Elordi said he first heard about the candles when his Priscilla costar, Cailee Spaeny, sent him a video. He cheekily joked about wanting a share of the profits from the candle sales, and we do not blame him. They’re a hot commodity right now.
