The Timothée Chalamet EsDeeKid Rumor has triggered heated debates across the internet, as fans speculate that the actor might be leading a double life as the cryptic UK hip-hop artist. These swirling rumors gained momentum just as Chalamet prepares for the release of his film Marty Supreme, popping up on social media and grabbing attention for their wild twists and turns.
Who Is EsDeeKid and Why the Mystery?
EsDeeKid, a rising musician from Liverpool with a minimal online presence, became known for his recent album “Rebel” and tracks like “LV Sandals,” “Phantom,” and “4 Raws,” which have all made waves in the UK music scene. The artist’s commitment to anonymity fuels the speculation—his public appearances are marked by a balaclava hiding his face, making it impossible for fans to identify him outright. The secrecy, combined with the viral nature of his TikTok hit “LV Sandals,” has intensified interest in unmasking the performer.
What Sparked the Chalamet Connection?
Speculation about whether Chalamet is moonlighting as EsDeeKid started roughly a week ago, after a Rolling Stone report spotlighted a TikTok post by user KJ Freeman. Freeman’s video cited a series of coincidences as supposed evidence: Chalamet’s attendance at a Fakemink concert in London (with Fakemink being featured on “LV Sandals”), his love of hip-hop, and a tongue-in-cheek claim that he could
“fake a Scouse accent and become a UK drill rapper, that’s in his DNA to do some shit like that,”
Freeman, TikTok User.
Freeman also suggested,
“the actor-to-musician crossover is very hard to do,”
Freeman, TikTok User, and claimed Chalamet would only be able to pursue a music project undercover, given how difficult it is for actors to break into the music scene seriously.
Fans Find More ‘Evidence’—But Is It Convincing?
Despite the outlandish theory, the rumor caught fire online, with more Chalamet fans joining in by dissecting supposed similarities between the two—such as both names featuring a double ‘e,’ and the two men’s comparable eye color and reported shared affinity for distinctive scarves. While the majority of the arguments seem playful or unconvincing, the tension continues to spread through fan circles who are looking for hidden connections.
Chalamet’s Musical Background and Public Denials
The hypothesis isn’t entirely outrageous when considering Chalamet’s previous musical endeavors. He has performed in musicals such as Wonka, taken the spotlight in Deliver Me From Nowhere, and even showcased his rap skills on SNL, including as part of the comedic duo Timmy Tim with Pete Davidson. However, as recently as last December, Chalamet made it clear he had no intention of recording his own album, shutting down talk of an imminent music career or crossover.
No Word from Chalamet or EsDeeKid
So far, neither Timothée Chalamet nor EsDeeKid has issued any statements addressing the growing conspiracy. This radio silence only adds fuel to fan theories, especially as Chalamet keeps a relatively high profile and EsDeeKid continues to appear in public heavily masked. Some internet users have questioned whether the gossip is merely a byproduct of online boredom or part of an elaborate, tongue-in-cheek promotional strategy tied to the upcoming release of Marty Supreme and EsDeeKid’s tour plans.
Fans Await the EsDeeKid Tour for Answers
EsDeeKid is set to embark on a tour beginning in January, with concerts scheduled in Canada—specifically, dates in Montreal and Toronto. These appearances have become flashpoints for speculation, as some observers jokingly suggest that attending could provide the ultimate opportunity to see if Timothée Chalamet and EsDeeKid are ever spotted in the same space. Until either artist addresses the rumors, fans can only watch and wonder whether there’s any substance behind the heated online debate surrounding the Timothée Chalamet EsDeeKid Rumor.
