Sam Smith sightings continue in Syracuse; singer jokes about cold weather

More sightings of international superstar singer Sam Smith have been reported in Central New York.

Smith is in the Syracuse area where his boyfriend, actor Brandon Flynn, is filming a new movie. The "Stay with Me" crooner was first spotted in the area Thursday, and has since been seen at the Destiny USA shopping mall, Wegmans in Liverpool, Pastabilities in Armory Square, Scotch 'n Sirloin in DeWitt, The Eureka Company handmade gift shop, and the Glazed & Confused doughnut shop.

Fans say they also met the Grammy winner from London while he was walking his dog around Westcott Street, near Syracuse University.

Two Le Moyne College students said Saturday that they ran into Smith while buying his latest album on vinyl at Urban Outfitters in downtown Syracuse.

"I bought @samsmithworld album with him right behind me in line," Abby Dallessandro wrote on Twitter. "I got to meet my god (Sam Smith) and he's a great guy."

Smith's boyfriend Brandon Flynn is in the area filming a new dark comedy called "Looks that Kill," the third movie from Hollywood filmmaker Jeremy Garelick ("The Break-Up," "The Wedding Ringer") and his American High company. Garelick recently relocated to Central New York, purchased the former Zogg school building in Liverpool, and turned it into the Liverpool School of Cinema. The company shot two productions last year: "Holly Slept Over" and "Banana Split."

Both appear to be enjoying their time in Syracuse. Flynn posted a photo of himself with Smith and an older couple, who may be Flynn's parents.

"Fam jam," Flynn wrote on Instagram.

On his third night in Syracuse, Smith posted a short Instagram Story showing him watching a weather forecast on CNY Central.

"You know it's cold in Syracuse when the newscaster wears a jacket," a voice says as meteorologist Molly Matott reported on winter weather Saturday in the CNY area.

Brandon Flynn

Flynn is a 24-year-old actor from Florida, best known for his role as Justin Foley on the Netflix series "13 Reasons Why." The controversial TV show, which has been renewed for a second season, chronicles a teenager trying to find out why his classmate committed suicide.

"Looks That Kill" will be Flynn's first major motion picture. He's also set to star in season 3 of HBO's "True Detective."

"Looks That Kill," written and directed by Kellen Moore, will star Flynn, Ki Hong Lee, Julia Goldani Telles and Lindsay Mushett. The movie chronicles a teenage boy (Flynn) who is "lethally attractive" and must cover his face to prevent killing people.

Lee is best known for playing Minho in the "Maze Runner" film trilogy and Dong on "Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt." Telles previously appeared in "The Affair" and "Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life"; she also stars in the upcoming "Slender Man" movie. Mushett has appeared on "The Blacklist" and "Blue Bloods"; she'll next appear in "The Pretender" with James Franco, Juno Temple and Dennis Quaid.

The rest of the cast has also been spotted around the Syracuse area since production began in late March. Filming is expected to continue through early May.
