Ella Bright and Belmont Cameli Talk ‘Summer House’ and Sleep Avoidance in the Latest ‘Off the Cuff’
Honestly, the easy friendship between these two really does make them seem like pals from undergrad.
Reported by Vogue.
There are celebrity press tours, and then there are celebrity press tours where two co-stars spontaneously break into Lana Del Rey. Off Campus actors Ella Bright and Belmont Cameli landed firmly in the second category during their latest appearance on Vogue's Off the Cuff series — and the fashion confessions that followed were equally unscripted.
According to Vogue, Cameli has a Pavlovian response to "Video Games" ("Any time I'm in a room with guys playing video games, it just comes out of my mouth"), while Bright's phone wallpaper features her and co-star Mika Abdalla in blazers, poolside in Brazil. The two clearly have the kind of shorthand that develops on long shoots — Cameli called out Bright's habit of unconsciously shredding paper props with a very specific, very affectionate: "You do mindlessly destroy whatever you're holding."
The Fits, Ranked
When the conversation turned to fashion, Cameli immediately clocked his own pink Joachim suit from the Based on a True Story premiere — a flex in self-awareness — while Bright copped to wearing "hockey skate boots" to the L.A. premiere of Off Campus just two weeks prior. Her verdict? "Really hard to walk in." Aspirational footwear choices that sacrifice mobility: a tale as old as red carpets. Off set, Cameli is a committed backpack loyalist (messenger bags are a hard no), and Bright's college signature was a laptop covered in "a bunch of cool computer stickers" — which, honestly, tracks.
The personal disclosures ran deeper too. Bright revealed she only slept every other night during COVID lockdown — a detail that raises questions and demands a follow-up interview — while Cameli outed himself as a deeply invested Summer House fan. The chemistry between them is the kind you can't manufacture for a press junket: easy, a little chaotic, genuinely warm.
Two actors, one Lana Del Rey duet, and a pair of boots nobody could actually walk in — premiere dressing has never been more honest.
