In a new interview with The Times, the chief of London’s flagship opera house has thanked the Hollywood actor for boosting ticket sales amid his outrage-sparking remark that “no one cares” about the art forms anymore.
Alex Beard, of the Royal Ballet and Opera, said public reaction to the Marty Supreme star’s comments was “fantastic.”
“I thought it important that we didn’t issue a kind of hoity-toity response to Chalamet,” said Beard. “We simply said ‘Take a look at what we’re doing, mate’ — for instance, the fact that the largest portion of our audience by age is 20 to 30-year-olds.”
“And you know what? Our post got two-and-a-half million engagements and half a million shares, just on Instagram. And our ticket sales got an immediate boost. So cheers, Timmy!”

lol, that just proves his point, sales were low till he raised awareness.
“Cheers” won’t cut it, a genuine thank you from the bottom of their hearts is in order!

They think they are making a point but they are the suckers that got stuck watching ballet and opera.
