While Jenner's boyfriend might not have assumed the extreme backlash, the source claimed that the comments might cost him the Oscars. For those unversed, the Hollywood star has been nominated for Best Actor in a Leading Role for "Marty Supreme" at the 98th Academy Awards.
According to the insider, the award ceremony prioritizes "humility" and "not whatever he's doing." Adding to that, the outlet quoted a communications strategist, who labeled opera and ballet as the "Olympics of the performing arts." Furthermore, they advised, "It's also a small industry. Timothée might want to remember the golden rule: if you don't have something nice to say…"
Meanwhile, a Hollywood publicist supported Chalamet and claimed that "a vast majority of Americans already believe" what the actor said. "Those feigning outrage might start proving their support by posting a photo of the last ticket they actually bought to a ballet or opera performance," they stated.
