Jonathan Cheban — aka Foodgod — says he’s not holding Timothée Chalamet‘s controversial opera and ballet comments against him.
We got Cheban out Saturday night at Philip Plein’s Oscar party, and he told our camera he’s not mad at Timothée over the hot take … even though the actor has been catching a lot of backlash for the remarks.
Foodgod says he’s aware Timothée has been getting plenty of criticism online, but he makes it clear he’s got no issue with him personally. In fact, he tells us he still thinks Timothée is a great actor.

Despite the controversy, Cheban ended the conversation on a supportive note — telling us he hopes Timothée wins at the Oscars on Sunday.
The whole discussion comes after a resurfaced video from 2019 showing the Timothée telling a crowd he feels centuries old forms of artistic expression — like opera and ballet — are “dying art forms.”
