Kylie Jenner was reportedly overjoyed when Timothée Chalamet earned a Best Actor Oscar nomination

Kylie Jenner was absolutely over the moon when Timothée Chalamet was announced as a Best Actor nominee for the 2025 Oscars on January 23. According to Page Six, a source close to Kylie shared that she had a strong feeling Timothée would be nominated, but when she actually saw his name on the TV screen, it left her in awe. The makeup mogul, 27, was described as being “ecstatic” and filled with pride for her partner. “She’s so proud of him,” the source said.

The excitement didn’t stop there; Kylie couldn’t wait to celebrate the milestone with Timothée in person, marking this “special moment” in his life.

For a bit of context, Timothée, 29, is no stranger to Oscar buzz. He was previously nominated for Best Actor for his role in Call Me By Your Name back in 2018. This nomination makes him the youngest actor to earn two leading actor nominations, following in the footsteps of Hollywood legend James Dean.

Timothée’s Oscar nod wasn’t unexpected, especially after his standout appearance at the Golden Globes earlier this month, where Kylie accompanied him as his date. Although he didn’t win the Best Actor award (Adrien Brody took home the prize), having Kylie by his side gave him comfort and support, according to the source.

Kylie and Timothée first sparked romance rumors in April 2023, and while she didn’t walk the red carpet with him at the Golden Globes, she cheered him on from the audience. A previous insider mentioned that Kylie is Timothée’s “best friend” and his “biggest supporter,” and that the connection they share is incredibly strong. Timothée is said to really appreciate the positive energy Kylie brings, which helps lift his spirits no matter what.

Aside from Timothée, other nominees vying for the Best Actor Oscar at the 2025 ceremony include Adrien Brody, Colman Domingo, Ralph Fiennes, and Sebastian Stan. The Oscars will be held on March 2, 2025, and it promises to be an exciting night for all the nominees!
