This is what happens when you Google Caleb McLaughlin.
That's really interesting.
I see my face, see Wikipedia.
About 4,530,000 results.
Wow, that's pretty awesome.
You know, I appreciate it.
One section that comes up is "People also ask."
Can you answer these questions?
Yes, I will.
"Is Caleb McLaughlin in 'The Lion King?'"
I'm not in "The Lion King" animation,
but I was in "Lion King" on Broadway for two years,
from 2012 to 2014.
So that is a great question.
I played young Simba, two years.
It was a lot of fun.
"Is Caleb McLaughlin left-handed?"
Yes, I am.
I'm actually using my right hand right now,
but I am left-handed.
You know, actually, when I play basketball,
I dribble with my right hand and then I shoot with my left.
So it's interesting, you know, I trick people a lot.
"Is Caleb McLaughlin single?"
Yes, I am.
Yeah, I'm chilling right now, so, yeah.
You know what's funny?
If I'm actually dating someone, if I'm in a relationship,
you wouldn't know.
I'm sorry.
"What is Lucas Sinclair's middle name?"
Ooh, that's a great question.
I feel like I have one.
Lucas Risrocket Sinclair, let's go with that.
According to Google,
people also search for these five other people.
Can you guess who they are?
Yes, I can.
It's pretty easy.
Millie, Gaten, Finn, Noah, Sadie.
[Caleb vocalizes]
Joe, Natalia?
Wow.
Gaten, okay, I got three.
I'm surprised Millie and Finn isn't there.
They also search for these 18 other people.
Can you explain why?
Yes, okay, Finn, Millie, David, Charlie, Dacre,
Winona, my dad, and then Myles.
I was in "The New Edition Story" with him.
We've worked together before,
so I understand that.
Caitlyn McLaughlin, yes, that's my younger sister.
She's an actress as well.
She can have her own photo, not a picture of me.
And then Shannon, of course, Shannon.
Yes, we worked on "Stranger Things" together.
This is a Google Trends graph of your name
searched over time.
Can you guess what these labeled points are?
Ooh, this is gonna be interesting.
This is fun.
"Stranger Things" came out in 2016.
I think that's probably why like,
"Oh, oh, there's Caleb.
Oh, I didn't know who this guy was."
I guess it was just people were searching like,
"Who is this black kid?"
I don't know.
11/2017.
Oh, when did season two come out?
Yup.
Yeah, yeah.
'Cause it came out on Halloween
and if it was in November,
it was literally like the day after.
So yeah.
2019.
Was season three?
Yeah, that's crazy.
You see the spike, the difference,
in the seasons.
You see season one is kind of, like, lower than season two
and then season three has just skyrocketed.
That's crazy.
It's cool to actually see it on a graph.
On Rotten Tomatoes, these are your top rated movies.
Can you explain your role in these?
Sure can.
"Concrete Cowboy".
It's my first starring role in a film.
It's about a boy named Cole that is sent to live
with his estranged father in Philadelphia
and his time down there.
He experiences the urban cowboy culture.
Then you see Idris Elba is on the poster as well.
Meeting him and working with him was on a different level.
So it was a great experience.
I had no idea about the urban cowboy life in Philadelphia.
I was introduced to it coming onto the film
and working in Philly.
I actually spent a month training with horses.
Like people think that hopping on a horse,
you just get up and, you know, "yee haw" into the sunset,
but it's different than that.
You have to build a bond with the horse.
You have to learn everything about the horse.
And in that time,
the horse is learning everything about you.
It was an experience.
It was a journey for sure.
"High Flying Bird", yeah.
I was able to have the opportunity
to play a kid that loves basketball, Darius.
So I got to work with Melvin Gregg.
Shout out to Melvin Gregg.
He's doing his thing with "Snowfall" right now.
And the legend, Steven Soderbergh.
Great time working with him.
Just watching him at work,
it was a lot of fun.
This is what you're known for on IMDb.
Can you explain why?
"Law and Order SVU".
Yes, I played "Boy" in "Law and Order SVU".
That was my first television guest starring role.
Super exciting.
It was a lot of fun.
Yeah, as you see, it says, "Boy".
I'm "Boy".
Lucas Sinclair, "Stranger Things".
Yes.
I mean, between "Law and Order SVU",
there's so much stuff I've done before between that.
So it was "Law and Order", "Forever",
"Show Me a Hero", "Shades of Blue", and "Blue Bloods".
I've done a few things on television before,
but that's the ones that I guess that stood out
to a lot of people.
In "The New Edition Story",
I played "Young Ricky Bell".
Shout out to Ricky Bell, the "GOAT".
"New Edition" is an 80's, R&B group
that a lot of, my parents grew up on, a lot of people.
Your parents probably grew up on it.
It was a three-part mini series.
I had a lot of fun doing that.

[Caleb laughs]
That is funny.
It was the theater awards.
It was the fifth annual high school theater awards.
Yes.
I think that was my first red carpet event that I attended.
My boy Caleb is slick with the white suit.
I don't even think it was white.
I think it was like a blue.
Oh man, I was just slick back then, I don't know.
Man, that's crazy.
I looked different.
When sorting on Getty Images by Most Popular,
this is the top result.
This was season three of "Stranger Things" premiere.
This was our biggest premiere.
It was in LA, Santa Monica pier.
And I was in my Pyer Moss drip, you feel me?
Yeah, I was just chilling that day.
Yeah, I do remember that.
That's interesting that's the top result.
That's what's up though.
I was like, this.
That's how I looked, like that.
And as you see there,
this kinda gives me "Concrete Cowboy" vibes, too.
I found out I got it, I think the day before
and then I remember my stylist, Daryl, he was like,
"Yo, we should put on the cowboy kind of look."
And I'm like,
"Yeah, you know.
Get in character, or whatever."
So, yeah.
These are your most viewed videos on YouTube.
Can you guess what they are?
No, I can't.
I'm sorry.
Yeah, I would like to.
Let's just look at them.
I'm not gonna even try to guess.
Oh, "Stranger Things' Caleb McLaughlin
Goes Sneaker Shopping With Complex".
Yeah, so a lot of people liked that.
That was cool.
That was smooth.
That was a lot of fun.
I think a lot of people loved my authenticity
on my thoughts on sneakers.
'Cause I was just saying random stuff.
Like I just, I compared Yeezys to the Thanos chin.
Right now, I am trying to redo my whole closet
and clean out all the old stuff and bring on some new gear.
[Caleb laughs]
"Caleb McLaughlin Performs LL Cool J's 'I'm Bad'
Lip Sync Battle".
That was fun.
LL Cool J, the "GOAT", you know, he hosts "Lip Sync Battle".
And I felt like I should pay homage to him and his career.
He's done so great in the industry.
So I was like,
"You know what?
I'm gonna do 'I'm Bad'".
Yeah, that was a lot of fun.
Everyone was like,
"Whoa, he can perform?"
Like,
"Yup, I can."
You didn't know that.
Showed you.

You know, he's Thanos chin thing".
Stranger Things.
Fan.
Travis Scott.
Oh, I got some Travis Scotts, yeah.
You know what's crazy?
I only wore them once.
They're just in my closet.
'Cause I'm like, I'm not even trying to mess them up.
They're too spicy.
They look too good.
Mclovin.
I don't know why they mentioned Mclovin, that's funny.
Shout out to Mclovin.

A lot of people say they like my voice.
We tracked down some of the ASMR related comments.

Yeah.
Some cool stuff.

Hey guys, looking to buy a car for my birthday.
Any suggestions?
From the replies,
these are the 50 most recent recommendations.
Ooh, smooth.
Everyone's gonna say Tesla because that's the new thing.
Why not get a Tesla?
I might get it in the future, but not for the first car.
Gee, that's a good one too.
Ferrari, expensive.
Lamborghini, expensive again.
Would not do that now.
In the future.
Love all these cars.
- [Producer] What car did you end up getting?
- A Honda Civic.
It's not even on the list.
That's crazy.
We searched Instagram for some of your top posts.
Can you speak about each of these?
Yeah, that was me and Charlie.
He's so funny.
Love Charlie.
We honestly can't film together.
And season three, we had most of our scenes together
in season three.
We realized we can't work together without laughing.
We will get it done 'cause we are professional.
Charlie and I are professional.
It was one.
[Caleb laughs]
It was one scene that we were filming.
I was standing behind him.
[Caleb laughs]
And I think he thought I was laughing,
but I was just breathing.
I was just like this.
[Caleb breathes in and out]
And then all you see is him just,
"What are you laughing for?"
I'm like,
"I'm not laughing!"
But no, there's no games on set.
We don't laugh.
What am I talking about?
We are not laughing.
Forget about it.
Alright.
Justin Bieber.
I met him at the NBA All-Star Weekend in 2018.
He was like,
"Yo, you look familiar."
I'm like,
"Yeah, I'm on a TV show, like, Stranger Things."
He's like,
"That's you?"
He's like,
"Yo, you look totally different, bro.
You looked like a nerd on the show.
You look cooler in person."
I was like,
"Thank you, man.
I appreciate it."
This was a lot of fun.
She was super nice.
It was at Comic-Con.
She asked me to dance, and I was like, sure.
And she was dancing with me and stuff.
So it was cool.
It was fun.
[Caleb laughs]
Man, that was a lot.
I think it was great.
Hope you guys liked it.
It was a lot of me today.
I'm gonna cleanse from that
and look up other people and stalk other people now.
No, I'm joking.
I don't do that.
