Oscar-nominated actor Timothée Chalamet was issued a parking fine after arriving on a Lime e-bike at a movie premiere red carpet event. Chalamet explained his choice of transportation was due to traffic congestion, but he inadvertently violated the company's parking regulations. The fine amount and the entity responsible for issuing it remain unclear.
Timothée Chalamet, who received a Bafta nomination for his role on Wednesday, was issued with a penalty after arriving at the red carpet premiere on a Lime e-bike, one of London's popular rental bicycles accessible via a smartphone app. Chalamet revealed on a French chatshow that he opted for the eco-friendly mode of transport due to heavy traffic congestion in the city. However, his eagerness to make it to the premiere led him to violate the company's strict parking regulations.
\'There was a traffic jam, and I actually wasn't allowed to park there, and I got a £65 fine,' he said. The actor added with a hint of irony, 'And actually, it's horrible because it was an advert for them.' \The precise details surrounding Chalamet's fine remain ambiguous. Lime's penalty structure ranges from £2 to £20, with no penalties imposed for first-time offenses. Representatives from Lambeth council, under whose jurisdiction the event venue falls, have confirmed to The Guardian that they did not issue any such fine. Efforts to reach out to Chalamet, Lime, and the BFI Southbank for further comment have been undertaken. Chalamet's film is set for release in the UK this Friday, preceding the Oscar nominations announcement next Thursday. The actor faces stiff competition this year from Adrien Brody in the epic drama category. Should Chalamet emerge victorious, he would claim the title of the youngest man to win the leading actor Oscar, surpassing Brody's current record by 268 days
