Timoth\u00e9e Chalamet<\/a>, had the nerve, big guy by the way, had the nerve, on camera [to say] that nobody cares about it.<\/p>\n“I’m pretty sure that if you went to an opera theatre right now, seats will be filled out and nobody saying a word as the performance is going on because everybody has that much respect for it.”<\/p>\n
And in a new TikTok video, Doja admitted her comments were made “in the heat of the moment”.<\/p>\n
\nShe said: \u201cI am going to come out and say that I know nothing about opera. I know nothing about ballet.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cI\u2019ve never been to a ballet. I\u2019ve never seen an opera. And I took it upon myself yesterday to kind of give it to the man because there is a culture based around outrage and things like that and people want to feel like they\u2019re part of something. It\u2019s a need to connect, whether good or bad.\u201d <\/p>\n
\nAfter watching several videos about the row surrounding the 30-year-old actor, the Paint the Town Red hitmaker realised she shouldn’t have waded into the controversy because she didn’t know enough about the subject and had spoken out for the wrong reasons.<\/p>\n
\nShe said: \u201cWhat I was doing yesterday was virtue signaling because I wanted to connect and I knew that Timoth\u00e9e\u2019s goof up was something that I could leverage in order for people to connect with me and f*** with me.<\/p>\n
\n \u201cAnd it\u2019s easy. It\u2019s a modern way to garner clicks, likes, approval and all kinds of things like that from people. And so I did that yesterday, and I didn\u2019t really think about why I was doing it.”<\/p>\n
\nDoja stressed she wasn’t proud of her video and was deliberately looking “to be sincere”.<\/p>\n
\nShe added: “That was the perfect material for me to seem sincere. But the truth is, I don\u2019t know anything about opera. I don\u2019t know anything about ballet, and I\u2019ve never been to either shows.<\/p>\n
\n“And I think I just wanted a hug. I think that\u2019s all that I wanted. I wanted a hug. I wanted to feel like I was part of something bigger than myself. I wanted to be pat on the back the way everybody else is patting each other on the back in the comments sections. <\/p>\n
\n“And I wanted to look like a hero, and that\u2019s what happened. And when I got it, I didn\u2019t like it so much.\u201d <\/p>\n
\n\u201cIt just kind of furthers the fact that sometimes I think s*** and then I\u2019m like, never mind. So never mind.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nTimoth\u00e9e was talking to Interstellar co-star Matthew McConaughey when they discussed the trend of movies placing their “biggest action set pieces up front.<\/p>\n
\nCiting Frankenstein as an example of a popular movie that could “pull people in” without “extraordinarily fast” pacing, Timothee said: “It does take you having to wave a flag of, ‘Hey, this is a serious movie,’ or something, and some people do want to be entertained and quickly.<\/p>\n
\n“I’m really right in the middle, Matthew. I admire people, and I’ve done it myself, who go on a talk show and say, ‘Hey, we’ve got to keep movie theatres alive, we’ve gotta keep this genre alive,’ and another part of me feels like if people want to see it, like Barbie, like Oppenheimer, they’re going to go see it and go out of their way to be loud and proud about it.<\/p>\n
\n“I don’t want to be working in ballet, or opera, or things where it’s like, ‘Hey, keep this thing alive, even though like no one cares about this anymore.’ All respect to all the ballet and opera people out there.”<\/p>\n
