Beauty influencer Jeffree Star has whipped social media into a frenzy with a post of him holding hands with his ‘NFL star boo’ – and now online detectives are falling over themselves trying to figure out who the mystery man is.
Star posted an image on Twitter holding hands with a mystery man wearing Vans sneakers onboard a chartered jet with the caption: ‘Goodbye LA, time to spend time with my #NFL boo in Wyoming’.
Star owns a sprawling 70-acre property in Wyoming, which is rapidly becoming known as one of the best ranches in the state.

The post has sent the internet into a frenzy as thousands of people try to guess the identity of the unidentified NFL player.
One fan said they had solved the riddle, but refused to give away the answer and instead provided a list of clues for those playing along.
They included: He plays in the NFL and his season is complete… His team has red and he’s taller than Jeffree… and he plays in NFC South so he has to be from Atlanta Falcons, Carolina Panthers, New Orleans Saints or Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
The original post that Star put on Twitter had online sleuths scrambling for any clue that might identify the NFL player onboard the private jet
Some people said that a mark on the man’s hand was the key to unlocking his mystery identity, with several people posting NFL players with similar marks
The biggest revealing feature that many spotted was what looked like a mole, freckle or mark from an intravenous drip on his hand, which could indicate he recently underwent surgery.
Everything was scrutinised, from the girth of his legs to the shape of his ankles and even the way he ties his shoelaces.
Another online sleuth went to great lengths to pick out every detail.
‘I’m bored at work so… The spot is a mark from an IV, so he’s likely a starter. It’s on his right hand. That plus the legs being crossed to the left, I’d guess he’s left handed. The leg hair is very light. He’s probably blonde/ginger,’ they posted.
‘JS is 6’0 and size 11M shoe so I would guess he’s slightly taller & has a bigger foot.
‘6’1-6’3 and since that is the vans range exp, the largest size is a 13M. I would guess it’s a 12 but don’t quote me on that.’
Some people made the game even more interesting by claiming to know the identity of the mystery player – but only drip-feeding hints
Many commenters were just glad to see Star happy and posted well wishes to him and his mystery partner ahead of their time away
They even went to the extent of identifying the plane, its cabin space and how tall that would make the player.
‘From the photo I’m guessing that is a Nextant 400XT which is a commonly chartered PJ (JS charters),’ they posted.
Many suggested that they had solved the riddle but refused to give a direct answer in order to keep the mystery going.
Some of the online detectives even made the crazy suggestion that NFL legend Tom Brady (pictured) could have been the man in the photo
Others came straight out with names of players.
Some of them were wild stabs in the dark, like Tom Brady, who is more likely to be spending time with his children.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers linebacker Carl Nassib is the most popular name being thrown up by online detectives but several facts would likely rule him out as the mystery NFL boo
Other guesses included Tampa Bay Buccaneers linebacker Carl Nassib, although many pointed out that he is dating Olympic swimmer Soren Dahl.
‘His boyfriend posted a pic on his story of them at dinner last night,’ one person posted, likely shooting down that theory.
Another keen observer pointed out that Nassib had posted a photo at home with his dog at the same time Star was jetting out with his mystery lover.
Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert was another popular guess but if he was the man on that plane, he might be in trouble with his rumored girlfriend Taylor Bisciotti
Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert was another popular guess, but he is rumored to be dating NFL Network anchor and reporter Taylor Bisciotti.
Former Los Angeles Charger Colton Underwood also attracted scrutiny, but he is not an active player and is engaged to political strategist Jordan C. Brown.
Whoever the mystery player may be, the post has attracted enormous interest with almost nine million views at the time of publication.
Some have even raised the point that it could be a wild goose chase and the mystery man could work in the corporate or media areas for the NFL and might not be a player at all.
