Ben Shelton caught people’s attention in photos from his most recent photoshoot, and Coco Gauff made fun of him for his recent liking for pink.
Because of his performance in the 2023 US Open semifinals, Shelton is the favorite at this moment. The young American featured in GQ Hype’s most recent issue received appreciation from many followers. He was photographed in a number of informal poses. A pink rib knit polo shirt caught the attention of both the tennis community and Coco Gauff.
In recent days, Ben Shelton has frequently dressed in pink apparel. Notably, the 20-year-old’s apparel for the US Open was based on pink color. In light of the newly released film “Barbie,” Shelton had jokingly urged fans to hold off on making any ‘Barbie’ comments.
Shelton wrote on his official Instagram account: “New look. Better not see no Barbie comments.”
Coco Gauff was unable to restrain herself after his most recent GQ photoshoot. She made fun of her fellow national for following the Barbie movie concept.
Gauff replied to Shelton’s post: “Sureeee wearing a lot of pink lately for someone who refuses to watch Barbie.”
