“Brother,” Twilight star Taylor Lautner commented.
“Oh my God,” singer Charlie Puth said.

Warren has been making the most of his time in Australia during his Finding Family On The Road tour — he filmed a video with wildlife warrior Robert Irwin during a visit to Australia Zoo.
The singer is pictured walking alongside Robert in slow motion, participating in the “Ain’t in LA” trend: ‘(Can’t) always be in LA, someone’s gotta hold it down in Australia,” the video is captioned.
“I felt so cool filming this,” Warren said.
Warren will be performing in Melbourne on Saturday and Sunday, Adelaide on Wednesday, and Perth next Saturday.
