What's up? I'm Corey, and these are your entertainment and celebrity headlines. At the 98th Academy Awards in Los Angeles on Sunday, 30-year-old actor Timothy Shalameh cheered loudly for ballet star, Misty Copeland. During her dance routine at the Dolby Theater, he sat next to girlfriend Kylie Jenner, while Copeland performed to a version of the song I Lie to You with a cameo from singer Shibuzzi tied to a sinner segment. Earlier this month, Copeland addressed Chalemay's past comments on Ballet's place in modern culture during a panel for Avino and Taggit's XR. She noted ballet's lasting impact over 400 years, even if it's not as mainstream as movies, and highlighted her foundation's work to make it. Accessible, fans on X had mixed takes on Copeland's Oscars moment and her earlier remarks. Some celebrated it as her putting Chalamee in his place, while others called it overly personal. Many pointed out Shalame's mother, grandmother, and sister are all professional ballerinas with the New York City Ballet, making his words hit closer to home.

Shalemay was up for best actor in a leading role, but lost to Michael B. Jordan from sinners. Leonardo DiCaprio, Wagner Mora, and Ethan Hawke were also nominated. This marks Shalamay's third best actor nod, following his first for Call Me By Your Name in 2017, and another for his Bob Dylan role in A, complete unknown last year. D&N is sponsored by our partner.
