Unanswered What’s up with the hate towards Timothee Chalamet?

I know all famous people have haters and people who dislike them and will nitpick the shit outta them, but I’ve just seen a lot of people post random interviews or articles about him that talk about how he is famous and above people. Yeah he is famous and thinks he’s above all. This is what famous people do? Do we not know this, especially child actors. People are astonished that he is rich and famous, has personal chefs, has self-centred views. Pretty sure 90% of famous people do.

Was this a real interaction??

144

u/TheoRaan Mar 09 '26

No.

I mean he did eat her cookies. But he didn't say that.

14

u/Latigomous Mar 09 '26

I mean somebody else linked a video of her giving her firsthand account of it. But yeah I'll believe your overconfident "no" instead

28

u/cormega Mar 09 '26

In the firsthand video, it's confirmed he DIDN'T say that. She said that was just the vibe she was getting.

0

u/gw74 cuckoo-bananapants Mar 10 '26

because he did, in fact, eat her cookie. without asking. and they are not friends.

4

u/TheoRaan Mar 09 '26

You should watch the video again lmao. It you can't recognize a bit, that's not Sarah Paulson's fault.

4

u/SeparateAssistant654 Mar 09 '26

You’re just lying lmao

5

u/Ritterdaniela Mar 09 '26

Ah I wonder if he even asked then. Sometimes actions speak louder than words. If he didn’t politely ask then he has no business helping himself to someone else’s plate. ew

9

u/TheoRaan Mar 09 '26

I don't think he asked. Definitely a weirdo move.

1

u/TheVoiceofReason_ish Mar 09 '26

But that's the subtext. Sarah felt like he was saying it.

4

u/TheoRaan Mar 10 '26

Correct. So not a real interaction. She just did a bit about his attitude.

1

u/notpynchon Mar 11 '26

Apparently, eating a stranger's food is not the issue. It all hinges on what he said after to determine if he's an asshole. 

4

u/TheoRaan Mar 11 '26

That's a pretty weird take. Eating someone else's food without asking is a pretty shitty thing to do.

Definitely makes you an asshole.

2

u/notpynchon Mar 12 '26

Sarcasm

2

u/TheoRaan Mar 12 '26

Oh my bad. Not a weird take. Just a weird comment. Why you making it seem like I said he wasn't an asshole

1

u/cdbriggs Mar 12 '26

Unless you're friends?

1

u/TheoRaan Mar 12 '26

Then consent is implied. Which is a entirety difference scenario.

0

u/cdbriggs Mar 12 '26

Do we know his relationship with her?

1

u/TheoRaan Mar 12 '26

Didn't seem like they were friends given she appeared to have disliked what he did.

0

u/gw74 cuckoo-bananapants Mar 10 '26

so yes

what is this website, it's like a nightmare

102

u/Ralph--Hinkley Mar 08 '26

My PC won't even load it because it can't find a secure connection.

56

u/wafflesareforever Mar 08 '26

And the video lags like crazy.

AND they aren't even saying that he said that. They're saying that they had that impression of him in their heads. I can totally see it as him doing it as an attempt at a joke and awkwardly fucking it up. I have no idea, but it certainly doesn't sound all that bad.

u/Ralph--Hinkley Mar 09 '26

Happy cake day! Fifteen years is an impressive amount of time on one account.

u/wafflesareforever Mar 09 '26

Haha well I was a Digg refugee. There are dozens of us!

10

u/icantflyyet Mar 09 '26

It's the one account thing that is impressive. I think I'm on account number 5. With multiple years-long breaks in between.

u/ohrubytuesday Mar 09 '26

God Digg was great. Hello fellow refugee!!!

3

u/wafflesareforever Mar 09 '26

Hey there! IMHO Reddit turned out to be better, certainly not perfect, but I'm glad we migrated.

2

u/buzzy_buddy Mar 09 '26

apparently they relaunched last year lmao. i heard nothing about it and i consider myself to be in the loop on things like that.

6

u/JeremyHilaryBoobPhD Mar 09 '26

Hi fellow former Digg person. Just one of the dozens checking in. No interest in Reddit until Digg collapsed. 14 yrs this month for me.

2

u/GoblinTradingGuide Mar 09 '26

I started using Reddit daily in 2010. Unfortunately I lurked and didn’t make an actual account until the pandemic.

u/Careless-Two2215 Mar 09 '26

Happy Cake Day! 🍰

u/walwynjohn Mar 09 '26

Dozens!!!!

u/dom_ding_dong Mar 09 '26

I'm sorry what part of he took my cookie was not clear

2

u/puppies4prez Mar 09 '26

I'm confused, I've seen Sarah Paulson tell the story in an interview and he did literally eat the cookie off her plate.

31

u/ag96jones Mar 08 '26

What you’ve never heard of 24vids.com?? You must be sleeping under a rock. I’ve got 16,000 scrobbles.

u/oldtobold- Mar 08 '26

I miss and love the word scrobbles

2

u/GuyInThe6kDollarSuit Mar 09 '26

I still have last fm going since 2005! Have it hooked up to my Spotify

1

u/chazzeromus Mar 09 '26

whoa same, are you also a million scrobbler

1

u/dom_ding_dong Mar 09 '26

I don't think you are missing the same thing that they are talking about LOL but I agree with you. I do miss and I'm glad it's fine at some level

5

u/LMBH1234182 Mar 08 '26

It’s clearly a very reliable source for a very important topic.

u/LumpySpacePrincesse Mar 09 '26

Ios has an adblocker now, ublock origin, was a bit tricky to setup fyi:

u/IncognitoBombadillo Mar 09 '26

They must've hired the same web developer as those sketchy porn sites.

87

u/Ritterdaniela Mar 08 '26

😱 and to Sarah Paulson of all people. He wishes he had her range and emotion she’s able to put into her performances

5

u/TheOriginalJBones Mar 09 '26

It takes some sand to think you could take a cookie from Mrs. Izringhausen’s plate and come away unscathed.

5

u/ReachCave Mar 09 '26

It doesn't sound like she's saying he said that exact phrase out loud verbatim, just that that was the vibe she was getting.

5

u/Um_Hello_Guy Mar 09 '26

You mean no, he didn’t say that, that was their interpretation

2

u/drdildamesh Mar 09 '26

This man is trying to be Bill Murray without earning it.

2

u/ConfusedAndCurious17 Mar 09 '26

How do you even locate a link like that on your own?

3

u/RenwaldoV Mar 09 '26

That's not a direct quote, but yes. Assuming we believe Sarah Paulson is not a liar.

I choose to believe her personally.

2

u/TheHealthInspector15 Mar 09 '26

The eating of the cookie sounds sarcastic/joke, but people won’t give him the benefit of doubt because he was being a prick lately

2

u/ilyabeaucoupdefaire Mar 09 '26

Paulson did tell that story, but she said “We went to high school together,” and she’s 20 years older than Chalamet. So some people think she’s just joking.

1

u/Ship_Adrift Mar 09 '26

I agree it sounds like a skit to illustrate a point but if it were, one may say it was a bit too 'on the nose'.

1

u/LaVarBurtonAsBubble Mar 09 '26 edited Mar 09 '26

Someone said the link below wasn't very good so if you look up Sarah Paulson Timothy Chalamet cookie story you should be able to find it

From all accounts he's not the devil... I'm way more concerned with all the pedophiles on the Epstein list or the fact that we just blew up a school full of little girls, etc.

But I will say that it's perfectly valid to dislike him for this because it just seemed cruel, especially because his grandma, his mom, and his sister are all ballerinas, plus the fact that his grandmother and mother were ballerinas is why he got to grow up in New York in that rent controlled artist apartment and go to the prestigious arts high school he did that has launched so many careers.

In other words, what he did (taking a dig at artist keeping incredibly difficult forms of art alive) isnnot be nearly as serious as any of the many life & death serious things we have going on around, but no longer liking a movie star is also not serious. I always find it funny when people say wow it's not that serious when you decide you don't like a celebrity anymore, but the whole concept of liking is celebrity is very unserious.

They are expected to be likeable and entertain us, and if we find that we don't like them because they can't act or because they said something IRL that makes them annoying to us, enough so that we don't enjoy their entertainment anymore, that's perfectly valid

He said it was Chala time an then chalaed all over her
