Timothée Chalamet arrived at the 97th Academy Awards in a striking yellow Givenchy suit, standing out on Hollywood’s biggest night. While he walked the red carpet alone, he spent the evening with Kylie Jenner. The two were seated together in the front row at the Dolby Theatre, sharing affectionate moments throughout the ceremony.
Chalamet, nominated for Best Actor for his role as Bob Dylan in A Complete Unknown, was among the most talked-about stars of the night. The Dune actor had been considered a strong contender for the award, especially after winning the SAG Award last week. The category was announced by last year’s winner, Cillian Murphy, with Adrien Brody ultimately taking home the honor.
Host Conan O’Brien took a lighthearted jab at Chalamet’s choice of attire during his opening monologue, remarking, “Love that suit, you will not get hit on your bike tonight. Safe!” The moment set the stage for a night filled with both competition and entertainment.
Adam Sandler also made an appearance during the monologue, sporting his signature casual look—hoodie and basketball shorts. O’Brien teased him about his outfit, leading Sandler to humorously exit the auditorium. Before leaving, he hugged Chalamet, referencing their viral exchange at the Golden Globes earlier in the season.
Chalamet’s presence extended beyond his nomination. As one of the leads in both Dune: Part Two and A Complete Unknown, he was involved in two major films vying for Best Picture. His commitment to his role as Dylan was reflected not only in his performance but in his wardrobe choices throughout the season, which often mirrored the singer’s iconic style.
Inside the theater, Jenner and Chalamet were seen posing for photos together. Jenner wore a form-fitting gown, complementing Chalamet’s bold look. The couple’s public appearances have remained a point of intrigue, and their presence at the Oscars drew attention from fans and media alike.
