Connor Storrie Turns Heads With Diamond Choker at the 2026 Actor Awards
connor storrie walked the red carpet at the 2026 Actor Awards in Los Angeles on March 1 wearing a plunging Saint Laurent suit and a Tiffany & Co. diamond choker, less than 24 hours after hosting Saturday Night Live.
That’s not Connie, baby, that’s Ilya Rozanov
“That’s not Connie, baby, that’s Ilya Rozanov” prefaced an evening of deliberate style choices on the Shrine Auditorium & Expo Hall carpet, where the 26-year-old arrived in a sharp black Saint Laurent suit. The double-breasted blazer plunged low with high, structured shoulders; he paired it with inky trousers, glossy shoes and a diamond-studded watch.
Connor Storrie Wears Tiffany & Co. Diamonds Under His Suit
Storrie accessorized with small silver hoop earrings and a kinky diamond choker from Tiffany & Co., wearing the necklace under his suit without a shirt so the diamonds sat against his skin. Jewelry details noted from the night included a Schlumberger gold-and-diamond ring and an evening watch; a separate description of the Victoria Mixed Cluster Necklace lists more than 37 total carats of marquise and brilliant-cut diamonds for that design.
From New York to Los Angeles in Time for the Awards
He made it from New York after hosting SNL the night before, and an early-morning flight to Los Angeles — after an SNL after party in New York City — appears to have gotten him to the ceremony on time. He said he had “barely any” sleep after hosting SNL less than 24 hours earlier; the Feb. 28 SNL episode’s opening monologue included his joke about learning to speak Russian and pretending to play hockey.
Stage Plans, Presenting and a Golden Globes Link
Storrie was not a nominee at the Actor Awards but was taking the stage as a presenter during the ceremony, which Kristen Bell hosted for the second year in a row. He previously presented at the 2026 Golden Globes alongside costar Hudson Williams, and he announced the Actor Awards nominations on January 7 at the SAG-AFTRA Foundation’s screening room in Los Angeles with Janelle James.
Heated Rivalry’s Awards Eligibility and Production Details
Heated Rivalry was not nominated this awards season because the series was not submitted for consideration. The show was produced and financed solely by the Canadian company Crave, which made it a foreign production; for U. S. awards eligibility a series must have been coproduced with a U. S. partner. HBO Max acted as the U. S. distributor only after production was finished, and it is expected that future seasons may shift to a coproduction structure to allow U. S. awards eligibility.
