Timothée Chalamet says no one cares about ballet or opera, Metropolitan Opera respond

Wtf happened to him? He used to come across as a genuinely cultured person who deeply respects the arts. I swear since being with involved with the KKKardashian klan he's lost himself. I used to think he was so hot but not anymore. Man f.uck that guy

[Ziggy 13,411]

ns but he's acting like hollywood isnt in the same position nor that he isn't actively vying to be one of those actors that can prop up the industry. Marvel just paid RDJ the GDP of a small country to come back for Avengers bc they're flopping so hard. None of the arts are supported, but film has had a slower decline due to its malleability with evolving distribution models whereas theater, opera, ballet, etc. are all live experiences (for the most part).

Opera and ballet are elite, posh activities for upper class people and has been historically this way. Death for rich people. They are nobody. 

**** you. This generalization Is absurd. Theres an elite that sustains us and thank God. And not every cultural centre Is new York. Some of these benefactors are really devoted to the cause of sustainning the academies and theatres as well as helping young talented artists.

These shows, even more opera, require an absurd amount of people Behind the stage and on. Its a profession done purely for love of an old art form that somehow surprises you how It can still make so much sense. 

When we do the dress rehearsal, usually theres schools invited to see and everytime its a Joy tò see their reaction, how much they enjoy this artform.

It Is not for Rich people. In Venice in the 1600s, It was a public eventi and you could buy a ticket. Ofc thats already a niche elite outside nobility. Its a democratic show since, almost the beggining. 

A freaking taylor Swift or any of these pop stars shows costs way more on average than a ticket tò most ballet or opera, Symphony etc performances. So wheres the real elite?

what a fool.

if he's referring to the demand of sales in comparison to other events (concerts, sporting events, musical theatre), it's no question that those are promoted heavily vs ballet and the opera. it doesn't mean no one cares about this artform

This guy has become insufferable and it seems like all the success has gone to his head. Now he's just another cringy celebrity dating a Kardashian.

He only dates nepo babies and the latest one is Kylie Jenner. I think that says a lot about what type of person he is.

And the rumours are that he is constantly drugged up, partying and cheating on her.

The way I 100% thought this was going to be about the brutal assault on @Blackout19 and Free Woman that occurred earlier today.

Whenever I’ve been to an opera or ballet lately it’s been sold out, which has not been true for the cinema

Wait what happened? .

[princedeeblebleble 3,069]

Timey plz, getting tickets to a good opera/ballet is harder than getting them to pretty much any movie  and also even if you WANTED to do opera/ballet you lack any serious skill to do them, takes more skill to do both over whatever you do in the pretty bad movies you star in. So **** off and shut your mouth with some Kardashian titties *mic drop*
