During an interview on UK radio on Thursday (December 11), Timothée Chalamet addressed the viral conspiracy theory that he is secretly Liverpool rapper EsDeeKid. The Oscar-nominated actor initially responded, “I’ve got no comment,” to the playful prodding from the show’s hosts, before teasing, “All will be revealed in due time.” The rumor surfaced in November after fans pointed out similar eye features shared by Chalamet and the masked rapper, whose debut album, Rebel, recently surged to No. 131 on the Billboard 200 chart due to the buzz surrounding the Hollywood star’s possible involvement. Chalamet, a longtime hip-hop fan who once rapped as Lil’ Timmy, remained cryptic amid wild fan speculation as he promotes his upcoming film, Marty Supreme, which co-stars Tyler, The Creator and is set to be released on Christmas Day.
