Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner's chemistry made headlines at the Oscars Night 2026

Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner have become one of the most closely followed celebrity couples during the 2026 awards season. The makeup mogul has accompanied her actor boyfriend to several major events, including the Golden Globe Awards, Critics' Choice Awards, BAFTA Awards, and more. However, their joint appearance at the 2026 Oscars is special and marks the duo's second in a row.

The cameras at the event showed them chatting together and posing in their respective seats before the ceremony officially began. According to pre-event footage shared by E! News, Tomothee's sister, Pauline Chalamet, was also present and briefly joined the couple in conversation. Timothée and Kylie's bond comes after several months of public support from her during this campaign.

Apart from Timothée Chalamet and Kylie's public affection, the couple also drew attention for their fashion choices at the ceremony. Kylie went for a striking red sequined gown with a deep plunging neckline, reflecting classic Hollywood glamour. For those who do not know, she wore a similar ivory-hued dress elsewhere, which drew the fashion police's criticism.

She paired it with a diamond statement necklace and a matching red clutch. Her hair was styled in loose waves, complementing the dramatic look. On the other hand, Timothée went for a contrasting style with an ivory double-breasted suit with wide lapels and a matching shirt underneath. The monochrome outfit gave him a sleek and modern appearance that contrasted with Kylie's bold red gown.

More about the Best Actor drama controversy involving Timothée Chalamet 

Despite all the romance at the Oscars 2026, Timothée Chalamet's campaign did not end without controversy. Earlier in the awards season, his remarks about opera and ballet sparked online criticism. But during a discussion with Variety, the actor compared the challenges of keeping cinema relevant to those of other traditional art forms. Some critics interpreted his comments as dismissive toward classical performing arts. Sharing his views, he said:

"I don't want to be working in ballet or opera, or you know, things where it's like, 'Hey, keep this thing alive,' even though it's like, no one cares about this anymore".

Several popular personalities, such as Misty Copeland, Jamie Lee Curtis, and more, called out his comments. The stir also became a subject of humor during the ceremony itself, when host Conan O'Brien joked about heightened "security" due to potential backlash from opera and ballet communities. Eventually, Michael B Jordan took home the honour.
