In a delightful twist that has fans buzzing, Timothée Chalamet and Elle Fanning recently took part in the viral "holding space" meme during an interview with renowned reporter Tracy E. Gilchrist, who previously became a sensation for her candid moment with Wicked stars Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande.

Back in November, Gilchrist's casual declaration that she was “holding space” for the lyrics of “Defying Gravity” had social media in an uproar when Grande’s adorable response involved her holding Erivo's finger. The magical moment quickly captured the internet's heart, setting the stage for a fun reenactment during Chalamet and Fanning’s interview.

As the conversation unfolded, Gilchrist made sure to establish the same supportive vibes with the A Complete Unknown stars, stating, “First, I just want to let you know that I am holding space for you." In response, a starstruck Chalamet expressed how thrilled he was to be there, saying, “It’s an honor talking to you.” Fanning echoed his sentiments, excited to engage with the interviewer who has become a favorite among fans.

Adding a humorous twist, the actors playfully acknowledged the challenge of matching the energy of the Wicked viral moment, particularly noting their “regular chairs” compared to the plush seating Erivo and Grande enjoyed. Fanning remarked, “There’s nothing that we can do that can trump what happened” with the Wicked stars, reflecting on the high bar set earlier.

In a subsequent chat with Out, Gilchrist shared her disbelief at the delightful interactions with the two talented actors. “This viral moment has been the wildest ride of my life,” she exclaimed, thrilled to connect with stars she admired. Fanning even mentioned that she and her sister, Dakota, regularly do the finger-holding gesture—adding a personal touch to the meme's fun.

Gilchrist’s experience interacting with Chalamet and Fanning was marked by an air of mutual admiration, creating an adorable, surreal atmosphere that made the interview memorable. The combination of Hollywood talent and playful banter showcases the magic of unexpected moments—whether it’s in the spotlight or behind the scenes.

The “holding space” meme not only unites fans through humor but also highlights the joy and spontaneity that can arise from celebrity encounters. So, keep an eye on these stars as they continue to engage with their audiences in the most entertaining ways!
