Conan O’Brien teases Timothee Chalamet over opera/ballet comment
One of the few people who took a jab at Chalamet was none other than comedian and host Conan O’Brien for the 2026 Oscars. At the awards show, O’Brien started the event lightheartedly and joked about various things to keep the spirits up. One of those jokes included Chalamet’s comment. In one of his episodes, the comedian said: “Security is really tight tonight, I just have to mention that. I’m told there are concerns about attacks from the opera and ballet communities. They’re mad that you left out jazz.” The comment drew laughter from the audience, who were shown on screen soon after the comment and Chalamet was also seen smiling and waving.
