Timothee Chalamet's Quest for Love on The Lox Club?
In a town where everyone seems to know everyone, finding a genuine connection might be a tough call. But it appears that Timothee Chalamet, Hollywood’s latest heartthrob, has taken an unconventional route to love. As reported by The Independent in March 2022, the then-26-year-old actor was seen making waves on The Lox Club, a members-only dating app with a tagline just as intriguing: for "Jews with ridiculously high standards."
From 1920's Speakeasy to Modern Dating Marvel
Diving deeper into its historical roots, The Lox Club isn't just another swiping sensation. Its name pays homage to The Lox Club speakeasy, which was the talk of New York City back in the Roaring Twenties and the Jazz Age of the 1930s. As the story goes, this joint was more than just a regular watering hole. It was an exclusive spot for the Jewish elite, where iconic figures like Frank Sinatra and Marilyn Monroe frequently mingled.
But today's Lox Club has a different aim. Austin Kevitch, the app’s founder, mentioned to Vogue, “I was being a little tongue-in-cheek with [the website], making fun of the pretentious social clubs.” Despite his initial skepticism about dating apps, he was taken aback by the flood of applications coming in. The app's authentic approach, disinterested in social media clout, might be its unique selling point, as Kevitch adds, "We value authentic, well-rounded people."
"It's Culturally Jewish, But You Don’t Have to Be Jewish to Enjoy It"
This line, so wonderfully put by Kevitch, highlights the all-encompassing nature of The Lox Club. It's a modern reflection of its past, maintaining an aura of exclusivity while staying inclusive. With Chalamet, previously linked to big names like Lily-Rose Depp and Kylie Jenner, now seemingly exploring its depths, one can only wonder what other Hollywood elites might be lurking in its digital corridors.
For many fans, the question isn’t just about who Timothee might be swiping right on, but also what this signals about Hollywood’s changing relationship with dating in an increasingly digital era.
