Travis Scott sparked online speculation after sharing a post following the Academy Awards that some fans believed was aimed at Timothée Chalamet, who lost the Best Actor award to Michael B. Jordan.

The moment added to an already eventful night for Chalamet, which also included jokes from host Conan O’Brien and renewed debate over the actor’s past comments about opera and ballet.

The resurfaced remarks drew criticism from figures in the classical arts community, who defended the cultural relevance of the art forms while slamming Timothée Chalamet.

Travis Scott Appears To Shade Timothée Chalamet Following Oscar Loss To Michael B. Jordan

Travis Scott seemingly took a subtle jab at his ex-partner’s current boyfriend, Timothée Chalamet.

The moment came after the Academy Awards, where Chalamet, 30, was nominated for Best Actor but ultimately lost the award to Michael B. Jordan. Jordan, 39, appeared visibly emotional as he accepted the honor for his dual performance in the film “Sinners.”

Shortly after the ceremony, Scott, 34, posted a photo to his Instagram Stories showing Jordan wiping away tears during his acceptance speech.

Although the rapper did not include a caption, the post quickly sparked debate online, with some fans suggesting it was less about celebrating Jordan’s win and more about highlighting Chalamet’s loss.

Scott shares two children with Jenner: Stormi, eight, and Aire, four. The pair was in an on-and-off relationship beginning in 2017 before separating a few years later. Jenner then later began dating Chalamet.

Travis Scott’s Instagram Post Fuels Fan Speculation About Subtle Jab At His Ex-Partner’s Beau

Fans have previously accused Scott of referencing the actor in his music. On his track “Meltdown,” Scott appeared to allude to Chalamet’s role in “Wonka,” leading some listeners to interpret the lyrics as a subtle dig.

After the Instagram post circulated, users on platforms like X and Reddit weighed in with mixed reactions. Some found the move amusing, calling it “iconic,” while others criticized the rapper as being unnecessarily petty.

One commenter joked that Scott seemed unusually invested in the Oscars, while another argued the rapper should move on instead of targeting the man dating the mother of his children.

Others chimed in with remarks such as, “He’s so happy Timmy didn’t win,” and, “Last year he wanted Adrien Brody over Timmy, this year he’s supporting MBJ. Travis don’t f-ck with Timmy confirmed.”

Despite the speculation, the night could have led to an awkward encounter as Scott later attended the Vanity Fair Oscar Party, where Jenner and Chalamet were also present and reportedly appeared affectionate throughout the evening.

Timothée Chalamet’s ‘Marty Supreme’ Co-Star Kevin O’Leary Lost $1,000 Bet After Best Actor Upset At The Academy Awards

Meanwhile, Chalamet’s “Marty Supreme” co-star Kevin O’Leary revealed he had lost a $1,000 bet after the actor failed to take home the Best Actor prize.

O’Leary, 71, who plays Milton Rockwell in the upcoming film directed by Josh Safdie, said he had been confident Chalamet would win for his role as Marty Mauser. Instead, the award went to Jordan for “Sinners.”

Speaking to CNN on the red carpet, O’Leary said he had placed the wager shortly before entering the ceremony, explaining that he believed voting had already closed before controversy surrounding Chalamet’s comments about opera and ballet began circulating online.

“I just put 1000 bucks on Kalshi walking in here that he’s going to win,” he said, per the Daily Mail. “The kid is a great kid. He took a bum rap on that. And by the way, gave a lot of promo to opera houses and ballet.”

Conan O’Brien Jokes About The Actor’s Opera Comments During Academy Awards Monologue

Chalamet’s remarks about the art forms had drawn criticism in the days leading up to the awards ceremony.

During the broadcast, host Conan O’Brien referenced the controversy in his opening monologue, joking that security was especially tight because of potential “attacks from the ballet and opera communities.” “They’re just mad you left out jazz,” he quipped.

The camera then cut to Chalamet and his girlfriend Jenner in the audience, where the actor appeared to laugh along with the joke.

Later in the proceedings, O’Brien seemed to lighten the moment by addressing Chalamet again, telling the audience the two were simply “vibing.” Turning toward the actor, he asked, “We’re vibing, right?”

Chalamet’s response wasn’t picked up by the microphones, prompting O’Brien to add with a grin, “He doesn’t think so.”

Timothée Chalamet Faces Backlash Over Resurfaced Opera And Ballet Remarks As The Royal Ballet And Opera Responds

The controversy traces back to remarks Chalamet made during a conversation with his “Interstellar” co-star Matthew McConaughey for a Variety-produced Townhall, where the pair discussed shrinking attention spans and the challenges of keeping audiences engaged with slower-paced storytelling.

During the conversation, Chalamet joked that he wouldn’t want to be working in art forms like ballet or opera that struggle to maintain mainstream attention.

“I don’t want to be working in ballet or opera where it’s like, ‘Hey! Keep this thing alive even though no one cares about this anymore,” he said with a laugh, before adding that he meant “all respect” to those communities and joking that he had probably “lost 14 cents in viewership” by making the remark.

The comments quickly circulated online and drew criticism from members of the classical arts community.

A spokesperson for The Royal Ballet and Opera in the United Kingdom responded in a statement to The Hollywood Reporter, pushing back against the suggestion that the art forms have lost their relevance.

“Ballet and opera have never existed in isolation,” the organization said, adding that both disciplines have long influenced theater, film, contemporary music, and fashion.

The statement noted that millions of people around the world still engage with the art forms today.
