WitchTok to the Oscars: And The Strange New Era of Timothée Chalamet

View descriptionShare

In this episode, WHO's editor Lyndsey Rodrigues and Entertainment Editor Celia Whitley kick off awards season is reaching its final act, and the group chat has notes.

This week we’re diving headfirst into the beautiful chaos that happens right before the Oscars: predictions, snubs, and the performances everyone is pretending they’ve already seen. Somewhere in the middle of it all sits Hollywood’s most intriguing leading man right now Timothée Chalamet  whose reputation as an artsy, slightly aloof indie darling is suddenly colliding with a very public pop-culture moment where he's been offending everyone from Opera singers to the ballet. What's a man to do to salvage that reputation...if in doubt call a Kardashian. 

Is he still the poetic, cigarette smoking film nerd?
Or is he entering his blockbuster, Kylie adjacent, internet era villain arc? You decide in the chat. We unpack it all. 

But that’s just the beginning.

Moments you'll hear:

  • We review the gothic fever dream that is The Bride and whether it lives up to the hype.

  • Tom Holland and Zendaya's secret wedding. We discuss the growing celebrity trend of extreme privacy secret weddings, silent relationships, and stars deciding what they don’t owe the public. 

  • And finally: witches. BRING. IT. ON. 

Specifically the rise of the modern witch and the wildly popular corner of the internet known as WitchTok  where tarot, moon rituals, manifestation and aesthetic chaos are suddenly very mainstream.

The group chat has thoughts. Obviously.
