Travis Scott, former partner of Kylie Jenner, seemed to poke fun at Timothée Chalamet following his loss at the Oscars for Best Actor. Michael B. Jordan clinched the coveted award for his portrayal of twins Smoke and Stack in Sinners, a moment that moved him to tears during his acceptance speech at the Dolby Theatre.
Travis, who has two children with Kylie, took to Instagram after the ceremony to post a photo of Michael wiping away tears on stage, prompting fans to speculate that it was a dig at his ex’s boyfriend.
Meanwhile, Timothée faced further jesting from host Conan O’Brien over his recent remarks on opera and ballet. This came after the Marty Supreme actor received backlash for his comments made alongside Matthew McConaughey at a town hall event on February 24, 2026.
Conan quipped about heightened security at the Oscars and joked about possible attacks from the opera and ballet community, referencing Timothée’s previous controversial statements. The camera then captured Timothée’s reaction as the audience erupted in laughter.
The night took a more awkward turn for Timothée when Kylie had a brief encounter with his sister Pauline at the event, leading to online commentary on the perceived awkwardness of the interaction. Pauline had previously criticized billionaires and CEOs for owning private jets, highlighting wealth disparities in the US.
At a previous awards show, Timothée referred to Kylie as his “partner of three years,” expressing gratitude and love towards her in his acceptance speech. Despite not walking the red carpet together, the couple was seen seated together and interacting behind the scenes at the event.
Rumors of tension between Timothée and Kylie surfaced, with a lipreader claiming Kylie called Timothée “a child” and questioned his demeanor to actress Elle Fanning.
