Timothée Chalamet wowed fans last year when he transformed himself for the role of Bob Dylan in A Complete Unknown.

And his efforts didn’t go unnoticed by critics, as the actor, 29, scooped up a slew of nominations across awards season.

After taking home the SAG Award on February 23, Chalamet and his loyal fans were hopeful that he could bring home the jewel in the crown – the Oscar for Best Actor.

However, Chalamet was pipped to the post at the ceremony on March 2, as Adrien Brody was instead given the Academy Award. 

While it may have been a disappointing turn of events for Chalamet, one person in particular was perhaps more disgruntled than he was – the woman behind his biggest superfan account, Simone Cromer.

Cromer has garnered a following of 42.1k followers on Twitter/X under an account called Club Chalamet, keeping fellow fans up to date with all the latest Timmy news. 

And after fiercely supporting her idol on his A Complete Unknown campaign trail, her feelings towards Brody’s win could not be disguised in one tweet.

Taking to her social media account, Cromer bluntly wrote, “The Academy made their decision. Congratulations Adrien.”

Fans react to Club Chalamet’s ‘chilling’ tweet’

While other Oscars viewers understood Cromer’s anger, the post became a pretty memeable moment on the app.

“Chilling,” commented one follower, as another branded it, “Incredible”.

Others noted Cromer’s use of punctuation.

“Full stops like gunshots,” said one, while another agreed, “Using terminal punctuation when you are enraged is honestly very relatable.”

A third said, “No knife sharper than Ms Club’s pen.”

Some were pretty worried for Brody’s safety. 

Saying they felt the tweet was “a threat”, someone else commented, “I feel like we’ve got enough going on right now without Club Chalamet tweeting like they’re about to set off a bomb in downtown Gotham.”

“We’ll bail u out sister do what u must,” another carried on, as someone else joked, “They need to evacuate the Dolby theatre right now.” 

Issuing a warning to Brody, another went on, “Adrien, you really need to lay low for a while”, as someone else added, “Why is this tweet so scary LMAO. Adrien Brody lock your doors tonight!”

But all in all, this post summed up the whole debacle: “This is the funniest tweet I’ve ever seen.”

‘Keep calm and Club on’: Club Chalamet moves past the Oscar loss 

But it seemed that after a good night of sleep, Club Chalamet was in better spirits on March 3. 

“It’s a brand new day! CC profile page banner updated. We’re carrying on as usual,” Cromer tweeted, adding the salute emoji. 

“I honestly find this inspiring,” said one follower, as another added, “Live every day like you’re the CC lady the day after no Oscars for Timmy!!!!”

Taking inspiration from the British WWII motivational poster, another replied, “Keep calm Club on.” 

Branding Cromer as “incredibly brave”, someone else said that they would be “looking at this whenever I’m feeling down”.

“May her resilience be a lesson to us all,” joked one fan, while another continued, “May we all have the Monday Revolution energy of Ms Club, honestly.”

As someone else said Cromer’s tweet was “like she survived an attack, she’s so real”, another added, “Just because there’s no Oscar in the club doesn’t mean the club can’t stay open.”
