Fans turn on Timothee Chalamet over ‘jerk’ move toward Tina Fey at star-studded Knicks game with Kylie Jenner
Timothee Chalamet has felt the vitriol of some fans on social media, who called him a ‘jerk’ for ‘manspreading’ next to Tina Fey at the star-studded New York Knicks game.
The actor was sitting courtside, between his girlfriend, Kylie Jenner, 28, and the 55-year-old Saturday Night Live legend, with his legs apparently spread wide.
The four-time Oscar nominee, 30, was very animated as his beloved New York Knicks dominated the Atlanta Hawks with a 126-97 victory during Game 5 in the opening round of the playoffs on Tuesday night.
However, many users on X were not pleased with his behavior next to Fey, as one posted pictures with the caption: ‘timothee chalamet if you don’t stop manspreading on tina fey i swear to god [sic].’
Another fan attempted to get into the mind of the comedian as they wrote: ‘She’s thinking he shouldn’t manspread so she could be comfortable. What a jerk.’
‘Bro sitting like he owns the whole row,’ one wrote while another said: ‘I hate this little rat so bad bro show some respect to your elders?
Others noted that Chalamet had three drinks under his seat, between his legs.
Chalamet, Jenner, and Fey were not the only celebs sitting courtside as Ben Stiller and his wife Christine Taylor, as well as Fey’s former 30 Rock co-star Tracy Morgan, were all in attendance at the big game.
Meanwhile, The Kardashians star sizzled for the date night, wearing a very low-cut white tank top and bedazzled white jeans that appeared to be a custom pair from her Khy brand.
The makeup mogul paired the look with black thong heels and silver hoop earrings, while her long black tresses were left to cascade down her shoulders in loose waves.
Meanwhile, her boyfriend, who was brutally snubbed at the Oscars in March, rocked a black leather jacket over a grey hoodie and T-shirt. He cheered on his team with a Knicks hat.
Chalamet accessorized his outfit with a silver necklace and a white watch. He kept it comfortable in a pair of black worker boots.
The actor sported a wispy mustache for the occasion.
Chalamet and Stiller both leaped to their feet at one point to cheer their team on.
