And although she loves her brother, she doesn’t buy into the frenzy surrounding him.“Timothée is a hard worker,” she explained to W magazine. “When I see him on the big screen, for me that’s just the result of his job. As for the rest, I don’t really experience the frenzy around him. I guess it’s kind of crazy, but it doesn’t affect my life at all.”

Where does Pauline Chalamet live? 

Pauline has lived in France for the past seven years. She explained to W Magazine, “I definitely feel like Paris is my home. Although that doesn’t stop me from wanting to do touristy stuff: Sometimes I’ll text my friends to ask them to come with me and retrace Ernest Hemingway’s journey through the Left Bank or have a 15-euro slice of fruit tart at the Café de Flore, and they’ll be like, ‘Why?!’”

What languages does Pauline Chalamet speak? 

Pauline is fluent in French, which is pretty funny considering her character in The Sex Lives of College Girls was struggling to learn the language. 

“It was hard,” she told Interview. “There was an accent coach on set for the people who spoke French. She heard me try and put on a bad accent and started to work with me. It was interesting to learn which words are difficult if you don’t grow up speaking the language.”

What other jobs has Pauline Chalamet had? 

Pauline has worked a number of different jobs, telling Harper’s Bazaar, “I was a copy editor. I loved it. I love grammar. I’m obsessed. I was a bartender. I worked in a café. I was a dog walker. I was a babysitter. I was a tutor. Once I was asked to half babysit, half bartend. The parents were like, ‘Set up all the alcohol there on that table, you can bartend, but also watch these eight kids running around.’”
