Dance Worlds Fire Back at Chalamet's 'No One Cares' Remark
After Timothée Chalamet dismissed ballet and opera as things that people don’t care about anymore, major ballet and opera companies publicly pushed back, defending the art form and inviting him to reconsider. Responses from LA Opera, London’s Royal Ballet, NYC Ballet, and the Metropolitan Opera ranged from playful quips to earnest defenses of live performance, highlighting the craft and Chalamet’s dance-filled family background; the actor later caveated that he respects the arts.
