1
00:00:01,400 --> 00:00:05,280
Speaker 1: And Amanda gem Nation from Me Daily oz Emma Gillespie

2
00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:08,240
Speaker 1: is here and the talk is all about Timothy Charlemaye

3
00:00:08,240 --> 00:00:09,920
Speaker 1: and the lookalike contest.

4
00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:13,800
Speaker 2: Yes, well hello, a Timothy Charameay lookalike contests, as you mentioned,

5
00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:17,400
Speaker 2: has gone absolutely viral. It got completely out of hand

6
00:00:17,480 --> 00:00:20,800
Speaker 2: in New York. What started off is this little cute competition.

7
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:24,240
Speaker 2: Some flyers were posted around telegraph poles around New York City.

8
00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:26,000
Speaker 3: Turned into bedlam.

9
00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:29,800
Speaker 2: We had four arrests several different locations. It had to

10
00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:33,120
Speaker 2: be moved along because so many people showed up, and

11
00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:36,080
Speaker 2: Timothy Chalomay himself showed up.

12
00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:38,480
Speaker 3: Why were so many people there to watch the people?

13
00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:40,720
Speaker 1: Because I saw a bit of this online and someone

14
00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:42,919
Speaker 1: comes out and everyone the applauds of the yes, no,

15
00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:44,120
Speaker 1: depending on how good they look.

16
00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:47,040
Speaker 3: So were people. The crowds were the people the impersonators.

17
00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:49,519
Speaker 2: So there were only a couple of hundred impersonators, but

18
00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:53,559
Speaker 2: they reckon. Over three thousand spectators turned out, so it

19
00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:56,240
Speaker 2: was for two reasons. I think spectators turned out to

20
00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:59,240
Speaker 2: either hopefully see the real guy because there were rumors

21
00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:01,520
Speaker 2: that he might show up. He is filming a movie

22
00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:03,840
Speaker 2: with Glenneth Paltrow at the moment in New York. But

23
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:06,800
Speaker 2: then also there was a slew of eligible young a

24
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:11,479
Speaker 2: bachelorettes hoping to meet someone who looks like Timothy Shallow.

25
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:13,360
Speaker 3: That makes sense everything.

26
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:15,520
Speaker 2: To quote a twenty three year old girl who spoke

27
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:17,959
Speaker 2: to the cut, she said, it's so rare that all

28
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:21,200
Speaker 2: the skinny men of New York in one place. Oh,

29
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:23,920
Speaker 2: so she was looking for a beautiful skinny man.

30
00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:24,880
Speaker 3: Wow.

31
00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:27,720
Speaker 2: But the winner a twenty two year old guy named Spencer.

32
00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:30,960
Speaker 2: He came as Willie Wonka because of course Timothy Shallo

33
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:34,319
Speaker 2: May played Wonka. He won the crowd over. But there

34
00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:37,280
Speaker 2: were many many wonkers. There were many of many wonkers,

35
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:42,240
Speaker 2: many wonkers wonker slew of wonkers. There were a gaggle

36
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:46,319
Speaker 2: of Bob Dylan's because he's doing that movie. There were

37
00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 2: a lot of guys in kind of Hessian Sacks trying

38
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:49,800
Speaker 2: to be his character.

39
00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:52,720
Speaker 3: From June to that movie. It was hilarious.

40
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:55,680
Speaker 2: But what was even funnier is that when Timothsay rocked up,

41
00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:58,800
Speaker 2: a lot of people didn't even clock him because he

42
00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:01,240
Speaker 2: didn't look as legit as his own look alikes.

43
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:02,720
Speaker 3: Wow, which I loved.

44
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:05,440
Speaker 2: I also loved there was one of the one of

45
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:07,760
Speaker 2: the contestants who spoke to the media, and he'd said

46
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:11,480
Speaker 2: that he'd actually been approached to be Timothy Chalomey's double.

47
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 2: Because the event page was online and everyone started sort

48
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:18,160
Speaker 2: of posting selfies. That's kind of how the girlies took note,

49
00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 2: because they saw these lookalikes and they were like, I

50
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:22,280
Speaker 2: want to get a piece of that. This guy he

51
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:25,440
Speaker 2: got approached by movie studio, but he's only five foot three.

52
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:28,040
Speaker 2: The real Timothy Chalomee is five to eleven, and so

53
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:30,320
Speaker 2: they said, sorry, mate, not tall enough.

54
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:32,520
Speaker 3: And why did it have to be moved along? What

55
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:34,520
Speaker 3: was the frakka? Why were the arrests happening?

56
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:38,120
Speaker 2: Well, it was an unlicensed gathering, so they hadn't gotten

57
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:40,239
Speaker 2: a council permit or anything like that. The gathering was

58
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:43,760
Speaker 2: at Washington Square Park originally, and then rangers rocked up

59
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:46,200
Speaker 2: and they said you've got to move along. Then they

60
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:48,560
Speaker 2: moved to another park and got moved along from there.

61
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:51,720
Speaker 2: The organizers ended up getting a five hundred dollar fine,

62
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:55,399
Speaker 2: which is pretty bad. They did have to dish out

63
00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:57,800
Speaker 2: fifty dollars to the winner. By the way, the winner

64
00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:01,880
Speaker 2: won a giant check, fifty hold and a novelty trophy.

65
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 3: The arrests.

66
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:05,120
Speaker 2: We haven't got a lot of details on the arrests,

67
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:08,079
Speaker 2: but there's just a few videos of some skinny, sort

68
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:11,320
Speaker 2: of sickly pale boys being taken away in handcuffs, looking

69
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 2: very very down on themselves.

70
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 1: And when was it revealed that Timothy himself had been there?

71
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:18,800
Speaker 2: Well, Timothy showed up to the first venue, So he

72
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:21,040
Speaker 2: showed up to Washington Square Park after a lot of

73
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:24,240
Speaker 2: them had already moved along, So the best quality Timothy's

74
00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:27,440
Speaker 2: had already moved to the second location to be judged.

75
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:30,160
Speaker 2: And then the real tim He's walking through the crowds

76
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 2: the first destination with all of the stragglers.

77
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 3: It's so funny.

78
00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:36,240
Speaker 2: One of these reporters who wrote about it for The

79
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:38,800
Speaker 2: Cut said, the only thing visible in the crowd is

80
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:41,880
Speaker 2: the wonky impersonator's top hat. It's impossible to have a

81
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:44,160
Speaker 2: conversation without getting interrupted by someone.

82
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:45,160
Speaker 3: Who wants to make a TikTok.

83
00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:48,560
Speaker 2: The crowds are so intense that people are vacating the area,

84
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,280
Speaker 2: and by the time Timothy Shlmey shows up, no one

85
00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:52,760
Speaker 2: is quite sure if it's the real thing.

86
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:56,520
Speaker 3: Wow, I laugh. It's like a metaphor for life. Isn't it.

87
00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:59,160
Speaker 3: It's so meta. Yes, it's gone up its own bomb.

88
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:00,720
Speaker 3: I love it. I love it.

89
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:04,080
Speaker 2: I love the people organizing this getting what they want,

90
00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:07,600
Speaker 2: saying who cares to the council permit? And you know,

91
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:12,280
Speaker 2: the skinny boys get some vitamin D skin in the sun.

92
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 1: The skinny boys are out in the sun, are being

93
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:17,040
Speaker 1: cracked onto by young women. Everyone gets something.

94
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 2: Well, the winner did say he was excited and overwhelmed.

95
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:23,120
Speaker 2: There were so many good look alikes. It was really

96
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:24,600
Speaker 2: a toss up there you.

97
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:27,560
Speaker 3: Go, well see this hope for you?

98
00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:27,880
Speaker 1: Je am?

99
00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:31,920
Speaker 3: I right, what kind of lookike would that be? When

Speaker 2: Anything's possible, Millhouse glasses?

00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:47,160
Speaker 3: Are we going to end up in that? You are?

Speaker 3: I think he's You're more froggy. Yeah, thank you.

108
00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:56,240
Speaker 2: M
