Popsugar Celebrity Timothée Chalamet Girl Tweets About Meeting Timothée Chalamet on a Plane A Fan Sat Next to Timothée Chalamet on a Flight, and He Sounds Just as Nice as We Imagined 6 February 2019 by Karenna Meredith Idk how one can be this terrible at taking selfies but look out world here I come. Anyway idc just look at his face, this experience has been beautiful and he’s a very nice person (and we might be friends but idkkkkk) pic.twitter.com/yhdEF08pUz— Alankrutha (@alankruthahaha) February 5, 2019 I was casually trying to mind my own business on the train when my phone started lighting up with urgent texts and Twitter DMs from my best friend. I knew that either the dreaded apocalypse had finally reached us or that Timothée Chalamet had the audacity to show his beautiful face in public again. Luckily, it was the latter, and we'll all survive another day. Even better, thanks to Twitter user @alankruthahaha, we'll survive knowing that Timothée flies economy and excels in casual aeroplane conversation. While I'd normally dread sharing a row of seats with a stranger, I'd gladly cash in one million uncomfortable elbow bumps for the three hours Alankrutha spent with the Beautiful Boy star. Thankfully, Alankrutha chronicled the whole encounter on Twitter for those of us not lucky enough to have a front row seat to their interaction. She did her due diligence and asked the burning questions I'd be too shy to vocalize. "How is Steve Carell? Have you met Beyoncé? Why are you sitting in economy class?" Thank god, Timothée was equally talkative and gave Alankrutha pure, sincere answers, sprinkled with his own curiosity about her life. Now, Alankrutha did a fantastic job with her impromptu interview and I have zero complaints, but this conversation had me thinking: what would I ask Timothée if fate brought us together on a 747? Here's a short list: Did you want the aisle seat? I can totally switch, like right now. No problem. Is there a reason that girl on your phone screen looks a lot like Lily-Rose Depp? How did you really feel about that Henry V haircut? Are you and Ansel Elgort in charge of the ten year LaGuardia reunion? Do you feel like history's repeating itself, since Greta Gerwig called you a "young Christian Bale" and now you're reviving one of his roles in Little Women? What cologne do you wear? It's for, um, science. Do you want me to ask the stewardess for more pretzels? Y’all nbd just sat next to @RealChalamet on a 3 hour flight and we CHATTED FOR AN HOUR NBD I AM SUPER CALM RIGHT NOW AS EVERYONE CAN TELL— Alankrutha (@alankruthahaha) February 5, 2019 1 / 17 Working on 4 hours of sleep, I am ready to tell everyone how I met Timotheé Chalamet and how we are (probably) friends now?!?!? pic.twitter.com/YVceaTjqx4— Alankrutha (@alankruthahaha) February 5, 2019 2 / 17 SO I enter the flight and see a tall, lanky dude in front of me wearing a hoodie and both of us are the only ones w/o overhead space to keep our bags and I look up to see an actual angel and alarm bells in my head go off immediately pic.twitter.com/xVXEwcrdGk— Alankrutha (@alankruthahaha) February 5, 2019 3 / 17 So I figured he didn’t want to be disturbed and things I did in the process- ate a sandwich, peed twice, kept stealing glances at him and 1.5 hours in, he asked me when the flight was going to land and I couldn’t hold it in and said “I KNOW U R TIMOTHEE” pic.twitter.com/fixN4Z9X4G— Alankrutha (@alankruthahaha) February 5, 2019 4 / 17 HE LAUGHED AND SAID “AYYY YES IT IS, HI I AM TIMOTHEE” and shook my hands and at this point I was basically shook/ stunned and I couldn’t process anything pic.twitter.com/nYXovxWM4s— Alankrutha (@alankruthahaha) February 5, 2019 5 / 17 List of actual questions my dumb bitch mind asked him that he answered super patiently:1. Why are you sitting in economy class (he laughed and said how dare you) 2. Have you met Beyoncé (he has not) 3. How is Steve carrell (he said he’s amazing and offered to FaceTime him!!)— Alankrutha (@alankruthahaha) February 5, 2019 6 / 17 List of words that escaped my mouth: 1: I googled your height 2. Pls see my friend’s (@amyoosed)twitter dp, it is ur face3. I have stalked ur Wiki page (got a hi 5 for this) 4. Are u going to the oscars 5. Your introductory scene in lady bird kills me tho ur a D bag in it— Alankrutha (@alankruthahaha) February 5, 2019 7 / 17 What shocks me the most is this dude wanted to know about me. He asked me what I do, what project management is about (literally who cares timothee), where I grew up and PRONOUNCED MY NAME RIGHT pic.twitter.com/Z57pj2T2SS— Alankrutha (@alankruthahaha) February 5, 2019 8 / 17 the BEST discussion we had was about THE OFFICE and which episode we love ( I said dinner party represent) and we discussed the show and at this point I’m like is my life real, is this a fever dream pic.twitter.com/sbM24ctSKF— Alankrutha (@alankruthahaha) February 5, 2019 9 / 17 And whenever he asks me about my life, I’m like !!!!!!! Why do you want to know about an IDIOT like me!!!!! He asks about India, name drops armie hammer (ofc why wouldn’t he) and tells me about his life growing up and how he got into films— Alankrutha (@alankruthahaha) February 5, 2019 10 / 17 And all his questions were super sincere and genuine and he KEPT high fiving/ friendly nudging and while my heart was exploding, I also spoke to him like I would to a friend only bc he made me feel so comfortable! pic.twitter.com/7vQhTQjItD— Alankrutha (@alankruthahaha) February 5, 2019 11 / 17 ANYWAY after a good conversation he went back to his music, and I went back to kicking myself hard for actually having held a good conversion with an pure soul pic.twitter.com/zYtlOo8Aw4— Alankrutha (@alankruthahaha) February 5, 2019 12 / 17 The flight landed, we spoke for a bit about his upcoming films, he wished me luck for my career (Idc about my career at this point) and also told me I was the *only* one in his entire journey who recognised him and asks if I want a pic and I oblige graciously w/o any frills pic.twitter.com/NMGjKVKvDQ— Alankrutha (@alankruthahaha) February 5, 2019 13 / 17 Actual gif of me walking out of the flight as Timothee, my new best friend says bye and leaves. pic.twitter.com/uXRc9nMqTJ— Alankrutha (@alankruthahaha) February 5, 2019 14 / 17 MORAL OF THE STORY- if you work hard enough and never leave your house, you might stumble upon @RealChalamet on a flight and proceed to ask him who the most famous celeb on his phone is. *THE END*— Alankrutha (@alankruthahaha) February 5, 2019 15 / 17 Major things I forgot to mention: 1. When the stewardess offered him flight pretzels & orange juice, he scarfed them down in < 20 secs like he hadn’t eaten in 48 hours 2. He asked if I was expecting him to be taller or shorter- I said shorter (shut up @ me) 3. He loves easy A— Alankrutha (@alankruthahaha) February 5, 2019 16 / 17 Idk how one can be this terrible at taking selfies but look out world here I come. Anyway idc just look at his face, this experience has been beautiful and he’s a very nice person (and we might be friends but idkkkkk) pic.twitter.com/yhdEF08pUz— Alankrutha (@alankruthahaha) February 5, 2019 17 / 17 Timothée ChalametTwitter
