Timotheé Chalamet has shown the world just how powerful a thin frame, sharp jawline, and NYU degree can be.But his signature lanky frame —not to mention a striking resemblance to Troye Sivan, whom he portrayed on Saturday Night Live — was initially seen as a hindrance to his career, the 28-year-old revealed in a new interview. While on the promotional circuit for upcoming Bob Dylan biopic A Complete Unknown (which hits theaters on Christmas Day), Chalamet told Apple Music’s Zane Lowe that his build cost him a handful of roles when he was starting out.Subscribe to our newsletter for a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.A post shared by Timothée Chalamet (@tchalamet)A post shared by Timothée Chalamet (@tchalamet)“If I auditioned for The Maze Runner or Divergent, things of that variety that were popping when I was coming up, the feedback was always, ‘Oh, you don’t have the right body,'” he revealed.And if that wasn’t toxic enough, Chalamet added that he “had an agent that called me and said, ‘You got to put on weight,’ basically – not aggressively, but you know.”In this way, Timmy compared his own solitary journey to Dylan’s, explaining, “For [him], it was folk music.

He couldn’t keep a rock and roll band because they would all get hired by other kids that had more money, literally, in Minnesota.”Instead of caving to execs’ advice, Chalamet explained that he found his “way into these very personalized movies,” including breakout roles in Call Me By Your Name (for which he was nominated for an Oscar), Lady Bird, and Little Women.Not only were these “very personal” flicks critically acclaimed, but they allowed him to inhabit characters that fit his strong suits as an actor. “Those were smaller budget, but very — I don’t know how else to put it — personable movies that started in this theater space,” he explained.

School Book Bans: Texans Reject Pro-Censorship Hopefuls
recent rise in book bans, with PEN America reporting that the 2022-23 academic year saw 3,362 instances of book banning, a 33 percent increase from the previous year.Frank Strong, a teacher in Austin, Texas, who tracks school board elections, wrote in his Anger & Clarity newsletter that nine of the 15 candidates who ran on banning certain books from schools lost their races."Voters decided again to reject some of the worst, most anti-book candidates," Strong wrote, adding, "And, what's more, these results continued a clear pattern, stretching back through four election cycles to November 2022, of voters successfully organizing to resist extremist takeovers of their school boards."Strong tracked the races using a 23-page document that he compiled, which includes information on the candidates, whether they are for or against book bans, and what they have said about censorship in the past.Strong also tracked whether candidates were supported by groups such as Moms for Liberty, which advocates for "parental rights at all levels of government" and has worked to prevent schools from teaching LGBTQ+ content.Moms for Liberty supporters say American schools should focus their efforts on the country's illiteracy rate instead of teaching children about "gender ideology." Newsweek contacted Moms for Liberty for comment via email outside normal working hours.In September, Moms for Liberty endorsed Brandi Burkman in her school board election.

Inclusive Curricula: How LGBTQ+ Representation Benefits All Students
Educators strive to ensure that the learning environment and curricula are without exception for all students. To do so, including LGBTQ+ representation in education plays a crucial role in achieving this goal. It helps affirm that the broad curricula impact student’s ability to accept, understand and respect one another. These attributes not only help in supporting LGBTQ+ students in schools but also make students better humans. According to a post by the American Bar Association in 2022, the Trevor Project a national organization focused on LGBTQ+ suicide prevention, found that a positive school environment made a larger impact on student’s lives than similarly positive environments at home, work, or elsewhere in the community.
