Asked for his favorite concert-going experience of 2023, Chalamet, 27, drew a blank beforeHorowitz reminded himof the Sept. 4 Beyoncé appearance in Los Angeles.
“You went to Beyoncé. That is documented, I will say that,” joked Horowitz, as Chalamet laughed and said, “That’s right.”
The concert marked the actor’sfirst public outing with Kylie Jenner, 26, after a sourceconfirmed to PEOPLEin April that the two had been “hanging out and getting to know each other.”
“I was actually surprised,” Chalamet told Horowitz of the concert. “I’m not, like,Beyhive-level, but I thought I knew way more [songs]. But I guess I know some of the more basic hits.”
Beyoncé’s 2009 single “Halo,” he added, is one such hit. “‘Halo’ was a great, moody, 12-year-old head against the bus [window] song.”
Ina videoshared on social media, Chalamet and Jenner could be seen at the Sept. 4 concert chatting, laughing and kissing while standing in a box at SoFi Stadium.
