The "gay famous" social media star and Grammy nominee was not prepared for Timothée Chalamet and Boygenius all doing their best impressions of him on SNL, complete with dancing in tiny t-shirts and showing off their red undies.
Is this real life? Troye Sivan clearly wasn't sure after he tuned in to see Saturday Night Live host Timothée Chalamet doing his best impression of him on the venerable sketch show. Ironically, considering the sketch had him as a sleep demon, Troye said he felt like he was dreaming.
The Australian singer, who is explained as "gay famous" in the sketch -- but slowly breaking into the mainstream -- took to his social media platforms to react to Timothée and the ladies of Boygenius all doing their takes on his look and signature dance moves, including peeks at their red undies.

He offered a little more of his reactions to it in video over on his TikTok page where he played a snippet and then spoke directly to the camera (his comments are NSFW for strong language).
"The only way I can describe this," he shared, "is it's like a weird f--king dream. Like, it's like imagine ... Timothée Chalamet was in my dream and he was wearing my clothes and he was doing [my dance moves]."
Sivan may have to get used to being a part of the mainstream now as the "gay famous" icon is also celebrating his first-ever Grammy nominations. The Australian singer picked up two for his song "Rush" in the categories of Best Pop Dance Recording and Best Music Video.
