Paul Mescal was in great spirits as he charmed the ladies at the 39th Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony on Saturday night.
The actor, 28, cut a dapper figure in a double breasted blazer and white shirt as he attended the star-studded event held at Rocket Mortgage Field House in Cleveland.
Paul beamed as he was awarded The Vantage Award, which honoured an emerging artist or scholar who is helping to contextualize and challenge dominant narratives around cinema.
After receiving the honour, the Gladiators II star was pictured chatting away to Maid actress Margaret Qualley, and Scream star Mikey Madison.
Meanwhile Baby Mama actress Amy Poehler, who stunned in a figure hugging red dress, couldn’t wipe the smile off her face as she posed for a snap with Paul.

The Normal People actor was also seen beaming for photos with Saoirse Ronan after picking up his award.
The A-list event also honored Rita Moreno with The Icon Award, and writer and director Quentin Tarantino received The Luminary Award.
The evening helped raise vital funds to support museum exhibitions, education initiatives, and public programming.
It comes after Paul admitted he found rumours that he was engaging in one night stands and then sprinting away from them in the middle of the night ‘hilarious’.
Earlier this year, the actor became the subject of an urban myth that he ditches women during walks.
Screen star Paul is often spotted being chased through the streets by overzealous women hoping to catch a glimpse of him.
But another unexpected layer of intrigue has been cast over Paul when users on TikTok alleged that he picks up women in bars at night and sprints away from them while on walks the next morning.
Speaking to GQ magazine, Paul admitted he wasn’t bothered by the rumours but was upset that his mother Dearbhla found out about them.

Paul paused to pose with the Director and President of the Academy Museum Amy Homma on the red carpet
He said: ‘We were looking at the videos and we were p*****g ourselves at it. Categorically untrue.
‘And we were laughing, laughing, laughing, laughing…And the one thing that upset me was that I was in the kitchen, I remember my mum looking at the videos and she was getting upset. Isn’t that devastating?
‘I was like, Oh, it’s funny to us—my brother, me, my sister—because we know that this is the way the internet works. It’s hilarious.
‘If it was true, it’d be f*****g bad, but as a rumor, it’s funny. Then I was like, Oh, if you’re a mother, her impulse is to come out and be like, ‘He wouldn’t do this.’ ‘
One account alleges that Paul was out strolling with a woman when he pointed at something on the ground for her to look at and, as she turned back around, he ran off in the opposite direction.
Representatives of the Aftersun star did not denied the rumours and decided not to comment.
