Timothy loves rap. The fans found a video where the actor, being a schoolboy, performs a composition prepared as homework. At present, such experiments are forgotten, and Tim stopped composing music.
Shalome is indifferent to social media. He doesn't care how many reposts are made and how many "likes" are delivered. His Instagram and Twitter pages do not often please fans with updates.
In this, the young and already famous actor differs markedly from popular personalities. But Chalamet is very conservative: he keeps a diary.
