The actor was rooting for France at the match at Dallas Stadium on Tuesday night
Timothée Chalamet is apparently a huge fan of the Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders. The Oscar-nominated actor attended the World Cup match between France and Spain at Dallas Stadium on Tuesday night and was revealed becoming completely “starstruck” by the cheerleaders.
In a video posted to Instagram by the famed cheer squad and the NFL, Chalamet can be seen freaking out as he meets them. “Yo, nice to meet you guys,” Chalamet says after hugging a few of them. He turns to the camera and marvels, “I’m starstruck.”
Chalamet attended the match as a supporter of France, who ultimately lost to Spain. The actor was photographed in the stands with David and Victoria Beckham, as well as their daughter Harper.
Chalamet has been spotted at various sporting events in recent months. He celebrated alongside players on the court after the New York Knicks won the NBA championship last month, declaring he preferred the victory to Hollywood accolades. “Way rather this than the Oscars,” he said.
Later this year, the actor will appear in Dune: Part Three, from filmmaker Denis Villeneuve. The film hits U.S. theaters, including IMAX and 70mm screens, on Dec. 18. He is also voicing a character in upcoming animated flick Not Alone alongside Selena Gomez. Chalamet voices Joe, described as an “introverted rocket mechanic,” while Gomez plays Fran, an “astro-botanist,” who’s built the first “plant-fueled rocket.”
