It's March 15th. Let's get into entertainment and celebrity news.
Timothy Shalameh stirred up buzz with comments questioning the lasting impact of modern movies compared to classic ballet.
The 30-year-old actor, fresh off a best actor nomination for his role in a sports drama, made the remarks during a town hall on February 24th.
Ballerina Misty Copeland fired back sharply, saying, Chalame, quote, would not be an actor, end quote, without ballet's influence.
She highlighted how dance training shapes performers like him, turning his words into a bigger debate on art forms.
Fans and critics had mixed reactions, with some calling his take tone deaf and others defending it as honest talk.
Copeland's clapback quickly went viral, ruffling feathers in the dance world.
Chalemay stayed cool about the backlash, laughing it off from the frat road during Conan O'Brien's opening monologue at a recent event.
He even joked that he just lost 14 cents in viewership for no reason.
The exchange shows how quickly comments on culture can spark fire,
but Shalemeg keeps focusing on his awards run amid the chatter.
