Nathan Lane absolutely went in on Timothée Chalamet, as well as Matthew McConaughey.

If you didn’t see the news, Timothée is facing major backlash for his thoughts on the opera and ballet that “no one cares” about them anymore.

“It was kind of kaleidoscopic in its stupidity and insensitivity, and yet strangely telling about where we are in this country,” Nathan began.

First of all, one should remember, people will be going to see Swan Lake and La Traviata long after someone at a dinner party says, ‘Who was Timothée Chalamet?’ It’s the show business circle of life.”

He added, “The bigger question is: Why was there a town hall meeting with Matthew McConaughey and Timothée Chalamet? I mean, who deemed this meeting of the minds necessary? … Why isn’t there a town hall meeting with Democrats discussing how to get this lunatic out of the White House? Then I realized, ‘Oh, he’s still promoting that endless ping pong movie.’ And, you know, I’ve got news for Timmy: If you think nobody cares about opera and ballet, I can’t tell you how much we don’t care about ping pong.”

“He was doing it with Matthew McConaughey, so I’m thinking some weed was smoked before it. This may just be a tragic case of terribly unfunny people trying to be funny, which always ends in disaster,” he added.

Many stars have slammed Timothee for his statements.
