PARIS, FRANCE: Timothee Chalamet has disclosed that he had to pay £65, or about $79, after he rode an electric bike to the premiere of his new film, ‘A Complete Unknown’, in London.

The Oscar nominee was photographed on a green-and-white Lime bike during the Tuesday, January 14, event at BFI Southbank. Chalamet donned a navy suit for the premiere, as reported by Us Weekly.

Timothee Chalamet revealed he’s doing advertisement for Lime bike

On January 15, during an interview with the French chatshow 'Quotidien', Timothee Chalamet shared why he chose the Lime bike instead of a limo to attend the premiere.



 

“There was a traffic jam and I actually wasn’t allowed to park there, and I got a £65 fine. And actually it’s horrible because it was an advert for them,” Chalamet said.

Lime bikes are electric bicycles that can be rented in major cities from the Lime transportation company.

The publication reported that after the interview, the 29-year-old French-American actor was seen on a date with Kylie Jenner in Paris.

The couple enjoyed a dinner at an upscale restaurant before getting into Hotel Royal Monceau.

For the date night, Jenner reportedly opted for a black jumpsuit with a halter neckline while her beau was seen in a pair of dark jeans, a white shirt, and a multi-colored houndstooth coat and hat.

The ‘Dune’ star and the 27-year-old socialite even had an early Christmas celebration with Jenner’s children — six-year-old Stormi, 6, and two-year-old son Aire — whom she shares with rapper Travis Scott.

A source revealed, as per Page Six, “They had a really nice dinner together with Kylie’s family, and they drove around to look at Christmas lights.”

The insider continued, “The kids had a really magical time, and Kylie and Timothee made some very special memories together,” before adding, “Timothee not only got Kylie gifts, but also got some for the kids, which Kylie thought was so sweet and thoughtful.”
