How often do A-List celebrities ride bicycles down the red carpet?
I’ll admit I’m hardly an authority on who’s an A-List, B-List, Z-List or Whatever-List celebrity. But Timothée Chalamet is certainly in the spotlight these days.
One reason is his portrayal of Bob Dylan in the recently-released film “A Complete Unknown.” For its London premiere, he rode down the red carpet on a Lime electric bike.
OK, so it was an electric bike from a share network. Still, I give the guy “props” for not arriving in a limousine—and for his stated intention. “It’s ecological,” he explained. He later admitted, however, that he was trying to beat traffic.
Whatever his motive, the London police were not amused. He was hit with a £65 (about $79 at current exchange rates) fine—for not parking the bike properly.
I’m sure that won’t break his bank, and fans of him, the movie and Bob Dylan won’t care much.
