Star-studded Lakers vs Celtics Game: Celebrities West and Chalamet in Attendance

On the festive day of Christmas, the LA Lakers found themselves on the losing end of a game against the Boston Celtics, ending with a score of 126-115 at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. A bevy of celebrities were in attendance, marking the event with an illustrious presence. Among them were musician Kanye West and Oscar-nominated actor Timothée Chalamet.

West and Chalamet: Contrasting Experiences

West, who has recently been under fire for expressing antisemitic views, displayed a subdued demeanor throughout the game. He was seen clad in a black leather coat and a purple sweatshirt, maneuvering through the crowd with the assistance of a security team. The musician, known for his eccentric personality, evoked a contrasting image as he dealt with fans seeking autographs and selfies in a rather nonchalant manner.

Chalamet, on the other hand, exemplified a more amiable attitude towards fans. The actor, who celebrated his birthday the same week, was seen taking selfies with fans and enjoying the game in casual attire. Accompanying him were his father, Marc Chalamet, a UNICEF editor, and sports agent Rich Paul.

More Notable Attendees

Adding to the celebrity quotient of the event was Red Hot Chili Peppers co-founder Flea, former Lakers players like Lamar Odom, Derek Fisher, and Trevor Ariza, along with internet personalities and sports stars. The event morphed into a star-studded spectacle, bridging the worlds of entertainment and sports.

The Game: Lakers vs Celtics

While the star power was undeniable off the court, on the court, the Lakers struggled to seal victory. NBA icon LeBron James played a significant role with 16 points, eight assists, and nine rebounds, but it wasn’t enough to secure a win for the Lakers. Anthony Davis led the Lakers with a game-high 40 points and 13 rebounds.

For the Celtics, Kristaps Porzingis, Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown, and Derrick White made noteworthy contributions, with Porzingis scoring 28 points and 11 rebounds.
