Move over, Kylie Jenner, because Timothée Chalamet just revealed which British accent he thinks is the sexiest and you’ll be surprised!
The actor is currently on a press tour for his latest film, Wonka, where we follow a young Willy Wonka on his journey from meeting the Oompa Loompa’s to becoming the the world-famous chocolatier.
Now, in an interview with LadBible, Timothée revealed his love for a certain Northern accent which has sent fans completely wild online.
“I like the Hull accent,” he said in the clip posted on December 7, adding “Why is everyone cracking up?” after people behind the camera couldn’t contain their laughter.
“Hull is sexy. I like Hull, Essex is in my top three and, I like a middle-aged Northern accent,” he added. We can’t cope!
Now, fans are taking to social media to share their reactions to Timothée’s revelation and they are pretty hilarious.
“How the hell does Timothée Chalamet know about Hull,” one user wrote on X (formerly known as Twitter). Seriously, though, how does he?
“Timothée Chalamet declaring his love of the Hull accent feels like a fever dream,” shared another.
“Okay so I’m honestly obsessed with award-winning superstar actor Timothée Chalamet randomly saying HULL has the UK’s sexiest accent. He speaks nothing but facts,” wrote another fan.
Maybe we’ll see Timothée (and even Kylie) taking a trip up North to Hull sometime soon!
