Timothée Chalamet's appearance at the 2026 Oscars was controversial, with fans suggesting it was an homage to boy bands and Colonel Sanders. The actor has faced criticism for his portrayal of his "Marty Supreme" character in interviews and public appearances. He also sparked controversy by declaring that "no one cares about" opera and ballet during a conversation with his "Interstellar" co-star Matthew McConaughey. However, host Conan O'Brien responded by taking a playful dig at him during his monologue.
