BTS’s V stole the spotlight at Paris Fashion Week after a short clip showing his interaction with Hollywood star Uma Thurman took social media by storm.

The incident occurred at the CELINE Été 2026 show, where both stars were seated in the front row.

In the viral video, V was seen politely greeting Uma Thurman before gently helping her adjust her hair ahead of their joint photo session. The Pulp Fiction actress responded with laughter and warmth, a moment that fans described as “effortlessly classy”. Many online praised the singer’s gentlemanly manners, with several calling him “Prince Taehyung” — a nickname that quickly began trending.

The two stars’ interaction added an unexpected charm to the event, with netizens hoping it could mark the beginning of a unique cross-industry friendship. Interestingly, Thurman had previously met BTS leader RM at another fashion event earlier this year.

V attended the show wearing a brown knee-length coat from designer Michael Rider’s debut collection, paired with matching trousers, a crisp white shirt, and a leopard-print silk tie. His understated hairstyle and minimal makeup enhanced his natural elegance, earning him further praise for his sophisticated look.

The CELINE global ambassador’s vintage-inspired ensemble, reportedly drawing from 1880s Parisian aesthetics, has since become one of the most talked-about outfits of the season. V also greeted fans and fellow celebrities, including members of rookie girl group MEOVV and boy group TWS, and met LVMH advisor Sidney Toledano.

As clips from the event continue to circulate online, fans and fashion followers alike have dubbed V the ultimate blend of “star power and timeless grace”, reaffirming his reputation as one of the world’s most influential celebrity style icons.
