First it was Billie Eilish changing her slime green roots to platinum blonde. Now, Timothée Chalamet has allegedly bleached his hair for a new role.

An anonymous submission on celebrity gossip Twitter account Deux Moi, uploaded last night (April 26), said that Timothée had been spotted at The Parker hotel in Palm Springs. They added that his hair “looks like it’s transitioning from dark to blonde” and that it had a “very interesting reddish tint”. Another saw the Call Me By Your Name star wearing a baseball cap and a hood, suggesting he’s making a conscious effort to cover his hair before the big reveal.

TikTok user @ladybirdasf uploaded a “storytime” saying she ran into Timmy in Whole Foods in Palm Springs. In the video, she answered stans’ questions, where she claims to have spotted him in the grocery store, where he approached her directly to ask if she was following him. According to @ladybirdasf, she couldn’t get a selfie, because Timmy told her: “I cannot take a picture right now, I’m supposed to be hiding my hair.”

Chalamet is currently working on a horror film, Bones & All, with former CMBYN collaborator Luca Guadagnino. Interestingly, the actor’s co-star Taylor Russell just did a shoot with Vogue in which she had reddish hair – is Timmy going down the same route? Watch this space.
