Impossible to miss, they’re the couple of the moment.
The romance formed by Kylie Jenner, a highly publicized figure in the Kardashian clan, and Timothée Chalamet, Hollywood sensation since Call me by your name, and future Bob Dylan on screen, arouses all passions. Recently, in the middle of the Golden Globes ceremony, the lovebirds kissed, glasses of champagne in hand, under the fascinated gaze of photographers. “Viral” photos and videos. A feverish and stylish sentimental display – “Kylie” sported a Versace designer wardrobe.
And the slightest appearance as a pair shakes up from the Web. Maybe a little too much. Because the most glamorous couple of the year also generates theories, criticism and hatred. Pure online hatred which, you will never believe, is mainly aimed at the feminine side of the couple. But no ? But yes. Internet users are raging against Kylie Jenner, naturally “not at the level” of her half considered more talented, more natural and even more “intellectual” than her… But of course.
And the web is letting go…
Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet: behind the most glamorous couple of 2025, a flood of sexism
An anthology of shameless reactions from Paris Match readers: “I always imagined Timothée with a cute, natural girl with glasses, but no, here he is with one of the Kardashians…”, “Why does Kylie Jenner use champagne for herself?”, “Timmy knows that he will disappoint more than one with this couple”, “Timothée you cannot build your career on your smooth side and get together with a girl who has built hers on the superficial”, “It’s very sad for him”, “He deserves better”, “Miss Bling Bling she’s not his!“.
“He could do so much better”, “They’re always the weirdest couple”, “I don’t believe it”, “He’s so lost Timothée”, “He seems distant from her“, we can also read this time on the Insta accounts of the English-speaking press – Just Jared in particular. This is a flirtation that divides widely, as rarely.
But that’s not all…
We’ll spare you the “culture of nothingness!“, THE “she is so vulgar“, “they see“, and other decryptions in cohesion, type “Timothée ruined everything, “they go very badly together“… In addition, some claim that the couple is “fake”, understand, invented from scratch, for the cameras, the buzz, to panic the crowds. A theory which has long hovered over (the ex) romance between Sabrina Carpenter and another well-known actor from the same generation, except that it was “him” who was not good enough for “her”, according to the fans.
In short, according to these fine analyses, Kylie Jenner would be superficial, and Timothée Chalamet, a fool, manipulated by his partner, inevitably, since he is, apparently, more cultured and subtle than her. We will note the gender clichés relayed, and barely nuanced, while Jenner is constantly brought back to more outdated remarks about “bimbos” or influencers (Paris Hilton could say something about that), attached to the posture of definitive idiot who, at best, would be “elevated” by her crush, and should almost thank him for his presence.
Even if it means perceiving Kylie as a “witch” bewitching the wrong guy.
A slightly offbeat note in 2025. Some, on the other hand, consider Timothée Chalamet’s attitude as pure “acting”, a production in harmony with his most experimental scores, from blockbusters to indie films. He is said to be “absent” from his own relationship. Above all, we consider that he is wasting his life or that he could “find something better” every day, as if Kylie were, by chance, his new car, or a pair of shoes that he could exchange. We have already seen more respectful and sororal.
Most often Kylie Jenner doesn’t even have the right to appear. She sees herself simply described as: “a Kardashian”, emojis of disgust in support, completely depersonalized, between two virulent criticisms of her attitude and her physique. We breathe. Not the most beautiful declarations of love from the public…
