Timothée Chalamet alone may have cost himself the Oscar for Best Actor. A source believes he may be the sole reason the Academy didn’t reward him at the big ceremony this year. That insider believes that Timothée was “taught a lesson” by Oscar bosses on the big night. His ego and constant campaigning evidently didn’t curry him enough favour with voters.
The boyfriend of reality star Kylie Jenner was seen as the frontrunner to collect the golden statuette after winning his first Golden Globe for Best Actor earlier this year.
The Marty Supreme star failed to win Best Actor
You must be very careful with your words in Hollywood, especially when the Oscars are coming up. That appears to be the harsh reality of why Timothée’s performance in Marty Supreme saw him walk away from the Oscars empty-handed. A source tells RadarOnline that he was the clear favorite early on but “that momentum seemed to have slipped, and the atmosphere felt much less supportive.”
While his performance in Marty Supreme earned plenty of praise, Timothée’s perception off-screen apparently wasn’t popular. Among the controversies he caused were his harsh words about ballet and opera. He called the two dying art forms that nobody cares about. Following his Oscar defeat, an insider claimed that Timothée blamed his loss on the “Kardashian circus.” There have reportedly been tensions between the two since then.
There was also a sense that Timothée’s campaigning was a little too aggressive for many voters. He displayed, according to insiders, his share of overconfidence, which didn’t ingratiate him with those casting their ballots. Some believe that Timothée believed his behavior was merely off-the-cuff humor. Evidently, voters didn’t see it that way.
Ultimately, the Best Actor award went to Michael B. Jordan for the movie Sinners. This was the third time Timothée had been nominated for an Oscar, and his third successive defeat.
