Hollywood actor Timothée Chalamet shared a memorable moment with football legend David Beckham while supporting France during their FIFA World Cup semi-final against Spain in Texas.
Oscar-nominated actor Timothée Chalamet was among the high-profile celebrities attending the FIFA World Cup semi-final between France national football team and Spain national football team at AT&T Stadium on Tuesday.
The Dune star proudly wore a France tracksuit as he cheered on Les Bleus, reflecting his French heritage through his father, Marc Chalamet.
Chalamet Spotted With David Beckham
During the second half, television cameras captured Chalamet chatting with football icon David Beckham and Beckham’s son Romeo Beckham in the stands.
The star-studded interaction quickly gained attention among football and entertainment fans watching the match.
France Eliminated by Spain
Despite Chalamet’s support, France’s World Cup journey ended with a 2-0 defeat to reigning European champions Spain.
Spain opened the scoring in the 22nd minute when Mikel Oyarzabal converted a penalty before Pedro Porro added a second goal early in the second half to secure Spain’s place in the World Cup final.
Starstruck by Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders
Away from the action on the pitch, Chalamet enjoyed another memorable moment during halftime.
The actor was filmed backstage meeting the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders, warmly greeting and hugging members of the iconic squad.
He admitted he felt “starstruck” while meeting the famous cheerleaders, a moment that quickly circulated across social media.
Familiar Face at the World Cup
Chalamet has been a regular attendee throughout the FIFA World Cup, previously watching Spain’s quarter-final victory over Belgium alongside his father.
His girlfriend, Kylie Jenner, did not attend the semi-final, although the couple has recently been seen together at several New York Knicks games during the NBA season.
Meanwhile, Beckham has also been a frequent guest at World Cup matches, continuing his close association with international football while attending several fixtures during the tournament.
