nah i’m genuinely confused as to what people are offended by and i’m not just saying that as a stan. sure he could have worded what he said better but other than that what was the issue?
Seen people say it’s disheartening seeing a big star and seeming champion of art demeaning art that isn’t popular. Saying he’s be nowhere near forms of art that aren’t consumed by the masses and then when he says he lost 14 cents by s***ting on ballet and opera, they see it like he gave the game away in how he just sees the audience as people in seats and a monetary figure.
This is all really stupid but that seems to be my best guess at taking what people are angry about in earnest
I think it’s all a really bad faith misconstrued regurgitation of what he said for the sake of getting angry. It also just kinda seems like people are projecting on him. People want a soft spoken theatre kid, precautious artistic type and feel whiplash in how he’s been moving the last year and a half. But idk I think it’s kinda cool that our generations young star is both genuinely talented and cocky business minded dude who talks like Don draper. This is 100% how people like Denzel or Leo or Tom Cruise would’ve been talking in their 20s and 30s if the movie, press and media landscape was what it is today.
Leo also shat on jazz in the exact same context as Timmy did opera a few months ago and no one cared
He shouldn’t have given them this easy layup the.
I agree on that I’m just over this Oscar season . No other choice deserves and these fan bases keep making it about race . The 14 cents comment of him was dumb . These opera and ballet places making him a discount code when they already over charging in a recession
Anytime Jamie Lee Curtis rushes to speak against you I see the play
Chalamet built up a female fan base before he started targeting the male demographic
Don’t need to be offended to acknowledge what he said was dumb. Being in the arts taking down on another art from is unnecessary. Nobody asked him about opera or ballet. I don’t see a problem with him catching a little online heat. It’s not like they’re canceling him. People defending are making a bigger deal out of it
Saying he personally doesn’t want to be in a dying art form because it’s a lot of pressure ? He grew up with his mom and sister in ballet and opera . He was saying it wasn’t for him just the way he said it came off harsher
Plus ballet and opera takes way more talent than acting if we’re being real
That’s part of what he is saying too clearly
No other choice is better than both of these movies man and it’s not close
Best actor award deserved too . It’s all about playing to those in control of these s***s

i don’t even think he was hating on opera like that he was saying it’s not for him. im sure he has a firsthand experience of what it’s like being in opera or ballet considering his mom and sister is from that world and decided that it’s just not for him, i don’t see the issue in that lol
if only the amount of people mad at him actually went to the opera and ballet then this wouldn’t be a problem
kind of off-topic but i f***ing hate how intertwined betting markets like polymarket and kalshi are with damn near everything lol we are so fried man

He said no one cares about ballet or opera anymore

Oscar season is always unbearable. Nominees are under a microscope and online fans are always looking for a villain
But you gotta remember most of the community is filled with theater kids so of course they want drama
Yeah there’s an active smear campaign going on against the boy lol
This is worse than the ballet/opera s***. Being wasteful<<<<
He said no one cares about ballet or opera anymore
We live in a society that takes everything too literal then cries about it until someone changes what they said . When it’s like who cares . The amount that support ballet and opera clearly isn’t “ no one “ but it’s in a downturn .
It’s simply reality to joke about it . Could he have said I wish people would support it . It’s been down . Yes but he isn’t running for president lol

Mbj not doing a crazy amount of interviews . He has basically had no controversy the entire run

Sure but the people who are going hard defending him are being just as dramatic is all I’m saying. He said something dumb and getting a little heat. It won’t affect his career in the slightest

I just hate people pumping out articles and think pieces for clicks about s*** they don’t genuinely care about . They aren’t asking Oscar nominees all their thoughts , politics or serious questions.

They didn’t ask Timmy his thoughts either man he volunteered it himself

I am saying one thing will go viral but people won’t listen to anything else . When this is taken so seriously the future is actors , artist in all medium just say nothing or have less fun . Which to me is boring . Even if it guaranteed they won awards
