Timothée Chalamet is facing calls from people within his inner circle in Los Angeles to rethink his relationship with Kylie Jenner in the wake of his shock Oscars defeat earlier this month, with one insider claiming the Dune star is under pressure to 'distance himself' from the reality TV dynasty.
For context, the 30-year-old had been widely viewed in Hollywood as a frontrunner for Best Actor for his performance in Marty Supreme, but he lost out to Michael B. Jordan, who took the statuette for Sinners. According to an unnamed source who spoke to Globe Magazine, industry chatter in the days after the ceremony has been less about Jordan's win and more about what they see as missteps in Chalamet's awards campaign and public image.
