Timothee Chalamet is currently gracing the cover of Vogue magazine, but it hasn’t exactly received the rave reviews the fashion bible may be more used to receiving.
The image, shot by famed photographer Annie Leibovitz, sees Chalamet, 29, posing in the stars in a flowing cream coat and floral print jeans with a steely expression.
Quickly, the cover drew mockery from fans – and Chalamet’s former Bones and All co-star Chloe Sevigny couldn’t help herself from weighing in.
She revealed she was left laughing her ‘a**’ off over the image as she dropped a comment in Blakely Neiman Thornton’s video mocking the cover.
‘Lmao,’ the 50-year-old actress captioned the video.
The was one of the more kinder comments reacting to the bizarre shoot, with one comparing the results to a mash-up of graphic design platform Canva and AI chatbot ChatGPT and another declaring, ‘this might actually be the worst cover in vogue history.’

‘Canva and ChatGPT had their moment here,’ one commenter posted.
‘what in the lisa frank cereal box photoshop clip art type of bulls**t is this?’ another asked.
‘Cool. That means anyone, like me, can create a Vogue cover,’ one posted.
‘This is giving Deb’s photography from Napoleon Dynamite,’ another posted.
‘this looks like it was mocked up on microsoft word in 2012,’ another posted.
One posted on X in a message translated from French: ‘This is the worst fashion magazine cover I’ve seen in recent years.’
Another said the mystical background looked familiar: ‘Is that my zoom background?’ they asked.
‘It’s giving photographed by Ray in Schitt’s Creek with the space background,’ another posted.
Interestingly, the shoot did involve the assistance of NASA.
The starry visual Chalamet posted before was of Emission Nebula, O 6.5 Star, and was provided to Vogue by NASA, ESA, and the Hubble Telescope Heritage Team.
One person who has yet to publicly comment on the cover is Chalamet’s girlfriend Kylie Jenner, who became a brief topic of conversation during his interview with the fashion bible.
The actor refused to talk about her amidst with the magazine ongoing relationship woe rumors.
The pair, who previously flaunted their relationship and packed on the PDA across the globe, have notably kept their romance much more under the radar in recent months, sparking fierce speculation that they may be headed for a split.
The actor only fueled the theories when he declined to speak about the makeup mogul during a recent sit-down with Vogue magazine.

During the accompanying interview, which came out on Thursday, the reporter noted that Chalemet ‘would not talk about his relationship with girlfriend Jenner.’
‘And I don’t say that with any fear, I just don’t have anything to say,’ he said.
Despite not wanting to talk about his romance, the interviewer added that the Dune star ‘didn’t mind at all acknowledging the new stage of his life that he is entering into.’
He pointed out that his sister just had a baby and his Dune costar Zendaya recently got engaged to Tom Holland.
Chalamet also revealed that he wants to experience fatherhood, hinting: ‘That could be on the radar.’
He recalled an unnamed celebrity pal ‘bragging about not having kids and how much time it afforded them to do other stuff’ and thinking, ‘Holy s**t. Oh my God. Bleak.’

‘He knows some people can’t have children or are never in a position to. But he does believe procreation is the reason we’re here,’ the reporter added.
Last year, Chalamet and Jenner, 28 – who shares two children with ex Travis Scott – were hot and heavy.
They were attending Hollywood award shows together and sitting courtside at the New York Knicks, and even had romantic rendezvous in the south of France.
But in recent months, the couple has sparked breakup rumors after going weeks without being seen together.
Chalamet spent most of the summer living in Hungary while filming the third installment of the science-fiction franchise Dune.
Meanwhile, Jenner stayed home in Los Angeles, where she lives with her two children: Stormi Webster, seven, and Aire Webster, three.
The pair first connected back in January 2023 when they were both invited to attend a Jean Paul Gaultier show in Paris.
They confirmed their relationship in September of that year with a steamy make out at a Beyoncé concert in Los Angeles.

In August it was reported that the actor spoiled the mogul with meaningful gestures while they were forced to spend her birthday apart.
‘Timothée went out of his way to make her feel special on her birthday,’ a source told Us Weekly.
‘He sent gifts, they had a FaceTime call and he coordinated meaningful gestures with Kylie’s friends that made her feel very special.’
Multiple sources told the Daily Mail last month that the relationship was close to collapse, however, as their opposing views on marriage and settling down allegedly drove a wedge between them.
Around that time, Chalamet and Jenner were seen together for the first time since August.
Photographers caught the pair smiling as they headed into a party in New York City in matching black outfits.
Days later, they turned heads when they attended a Yankees game together – but the appearance sparked a debate amongst fans.
Some were quick to point out afterwards that while the makeup mogul has been a constant fixture at his events over the years – from cheering on his favorite teams to accompanying him to the Golden Globes and Oscars – Chalamet has never been seen attending hers.
Despite dating for more than two and a half years, he has never appeared on her family’s reality show, The Kardashians, joined her as a plus-one at the Met Gala or even publicly wished her a happy birthday.
That perceived one-sidedness had social media buzzing and relationship experts said it’s a dynamic worth paying attention to.
‘Relationships get ugly when one party loves you more, wants more than the other,’ trauma counselor Audrey Hope warned.
‘The fact that Kylie Jenner is at all Timothée’s events and he does not reciprocate in the same way is a big deal. It shows that something is afoot in paradise.’
