Charlize Theron recently told The New York Times she thought it was “very reckless” for Timothée Chalamet to claim that “no one cares” about the opera or ballet...
During “A CNN & Variety Town Hall Event,” Chalamet said that he doesn’t want theatrical movie going to end up like “ballet or opera,” where artists want to “keep this thing alive” even though “no one cares” about it anymore...
Interviewer Lulu Garcia-Navarro then alluded to Chalamet’s now infamous statement, to which Theron replied,
“Oh, boy, I hope I run into him one day. That was a very reckless comment on an art form, two art forms, that we need to lift up constantly because, yes, they do have a hard time. But in 10 years, AI is going to be able to do Timothée’s job, but it will not be able to replace a person on a stage dancing live.”
She continued, “And we shouldn’t [expletive] on other art forms. Dance taught me discipline. It taught structure. It taught hard work. It taught me to be tough. It’s borderline abusive. There were several times that I had blood infections from blisters that just never healed. And you don’t get a day off. I’m literally talking about bleeding through your shoes. And that’s something that you have to practice every single day, the mind-set of just, you don’t give up, there’s no other option, you keep going.”

Ever since Obama we’ve gotten into hate
Chalomet id a good actor
People love mobbing against him. What is this?
Years from now her face, along with the faces of the other gullible Hollywood celebs will be covered up by their hair after repeated destructive plastic surgeries while chalomets will look like he smartly naturally aged
If he’s smart
Ballet will be robotized in 5 years...
Ballet will be robotized in 5 years...
She’s just trying to compensate because she’s an Afrikaaner.
I am sick of people dissing chalomet. Who cares what he said. Tge view alone comes out wit 10 idiotic hurtful statements a day
She would never criticize anyone but a white male
Agree. I don’t know the guy from Adam, but it seems clear why he’s a target for these people.
Art is definitely in the eye of the beholder. This painting sold for 110.5 million $. To me it looks like the kind of graffiti you'd see spray painted under a freeway overpass.
Ballet de Boston Dynamics.
I’ll take that bet, Charlene.
In ten years Robots will be doing pirouettes on Broadway............
...only not as good..................
Holograms brought directly to your phone, and performing routines a human never could.
But will AI be able to replicate Eric Swalwells dirty tweets he sends out?
Robots dancing? How about Break Dancing?!?

It will not even be necessary to have robots doing it. AI holograms will be doing it far better.
In FY 2025, the Met in NY had $70MM and $10MM in ticket sales and ballet revenue, reps.
These numbers in FY 2019 were $85MM and $8MM.
The high water mark for opera ticket revenue was $95MM in 2011.
That robot may not have a future in dancing but it sure does have a bright future as comedy! Funniest thing I’ve seen all day!
Haven’t liked her for a long time. Adopted kids and claims one decided to switch genders at age THREE. Tragic.
She got really hung up on his throwaway remark from last year.
I guess it gives her a chance to get publicity.
Of course, in the age of AI she’s in the same boat he is, so best to let it go.
