Jimmy Fallon: Comedian, Late-Night Host, and Now the Proud Owner of a Timothée Chalamet Puppet

Jimmy Fallon [1] paid for a handcrafted Timothée Chalamet [2] ventriloquist dummy. Why? Because he is a sound investor! The Tonight Show host recently revealed that he is now the proud owner of the one-of-a-kind mini Timmy [3] that went viral earlier this Summer after being listed on eBay. (Though the puppet was originally listed for $122,795, Jimmy clarified that he did not end up paying that exact amount . . . thankfully.)

Though the puppet is a pretty exact recreation of Timothée at the 2019 Golden Globes [4], its personality is a little off. Like, we know Timothée speaks French [5], but why does the puppet have such a strong French accent? And why is he suddenly so mean? Classic diva, letting all that sudden stardom go to his head.
