Music News: Doja Cat Addresses Timothée Chaletâs Opera Comment

Doja Cat has weighed in on the backlash against Timothée Chalamet over his controversial remarks about the opera and ballet.

The Oscar-nominated actor has come under fire online and from the performing arts community after he claimed in an interview that the general public doesnât care about ballet or opera anymore.

Weighing in on the debate on TikTok, Paint the Town Red singer Doja called out Chalamet by name and insisted that ballet and opera are thriving art forms.

âOpera is 400 years old. Ballet is 500 years old,â she began in a since-deleted video posted on Sunday. âSomebody named Timothée Chalamet â big guy, by the way â had the nerve to say on camera that nobody cares about it. Iâm sure you can walk into an opera theatre right now, seats will be filled out, and nobodyâs saying a word as the performance is going because everybody has that much respect for it.â

The Say So hitmaker, real name Amala Dlamini, described ballet as âan amazing theatre mediumâ and praised ballet dancers for their dedication and commitment to it.

âThereâs still an audience. People give a fk. You show up in a nice outfit, you sit the fk down and you shut the f**k up. Thatâs the usual etiquette around those things. Maybe learn something from that.â

During a Variety and CNN discussion with Matthew McConaughey last month, Chalamet appeared to dismiss ballet and opera while talking about preserving the cinema experience.

âI admire people (saying), âHey, we gotta keep movie theatres alive. We gotta keep this genre alive,’â he said. âI donât want to be working in ballet or opera or things where itâs like, âHey, keep this thing alive, even though no one cares about this anymore.’â

The Marty Supreme star quickly added, âAll respect to the ballet and opera people out there⦠Damn, I just took shots for no reason.â
