Swedish actor Alexander Skarsgård has captivated audiences with many remarkable performances. He is well-known for his remarkable acting abilities, however, that’s not the only thing he’s remembered for. At the 2016 MTV Movie Awards, the actor showed up at the event in a dashing dinner jacket over a white T-shirt and a neat bow tie paired with sharp boots, however, there was something missing: his pants. The person to be blamed for this is actor Zac Efron.
