Here's Why Timothée Chalamet Almost Broke During His "Graduate Together" Speech

    Timothée Chalamet: Oscar nominee AND rap icon.

    Last night, some of the world's biggest celebs came together to celebrate the class of 2020's accomplishments in a virtual "Graduate Together" ceremony. Among them was the always lovely Timothée Chalamet.

    He shared some kind words with new graduates and gave a shoutout to his alma mater, LaGuardia High School of Music & Art and Performing Arts.

    Timothée gave a big thank-you to some of his favorite high school teachers...and threw in a special ~Easter egg~ for his fans, too.

    You probably noticed that Timothée couldn't quite make it through that last name without laughing. Well, here's why! Back in his high school days, good ole Timmy Tim was a bit of a rapper. If you don't believe me, here's his rendition of Nicki Minaj's "Roman's Revenge" that's just *chef's kiss*.

    It turns out, Timothée made this iconic rap video for Ms. Lawton's statistics class back in the day. If you've never seen it, I HIGHLY recommend you give it a watch. It deserves an Oscar of its own.

    If I'd seen this video when I was taking statistics in high school, I probably would've done way better, tbh.

    Let's just say his fans were VERY excited to hear the familiar name:

    Timothée writing his speech for the class of 2020 graduation and deciding to mention statistics and ms lawton

    TIMOTHÉE was writing his speech and was like hm let me mention statistics and ms Lawton that’s what the young people like
