Fans point out Timothée Chalamet's 'awkward' reaction to Kylie Jenner trying to kiss him at tennis match

Many on social media have pointed out a seemingly 'awkward' interaction between Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner at a tennis match on Sunday (March 9).

Over the weekend, Chalamet and Jenner attended 2025 BNP Paribas Opentennis tournament to watch Holger Rune of Denmark take on France's Ugo Humbert in California.

While the action was taking place on the court, the camera did often cut to Chalamet and Jenner during break of plays, and there was one interaction broadcast that provided a bit of second hand embarrassment for some fans.

A clip, which has since gone viral on Twitter, sees Jenner holding her boyfriend's face and leaning in for a kiss, all the while Chalamet focuses his efforts on the court.

"I sure hope Miss Club is reacting to Timothée not wanting to kiss Kylie and barely paying attention to her," one person penned on Twitter, referring to dedicated fan page Club Chalamet.

Meanwhile, another fan backed the pair stating on Twitter: "Not really fair to say, a lot of people don't like forced pose kissing pics. they're awkward."

The tennis tournament is known for attracting celebrity couples, with Zendaya and fellow actor Tom Holland spotted at the event last year.

While Chalamet may have been pictured with Jenner over the weekend, many were asking at the Oscars where his better half was on the carpet, as they initially didn't spot her.

The 29-year-old actor posed for photographs solo at the 2025 Oscars red carpet last Monday (3 March), leaving viewers confused.

Chalamet turned up wearing a custom Givenchy pale yellow suit, and he accessorized the look with a Cartier choker, Page Six reported. And while his outfit was the topic of discussion, fans couldn't help but wonder where his girlfriend was.

A user wrote: "Wait where is kylie."

"Where's Kylie," a second added.

Well, it turns out Jenner was at the Oscars, and was just temporarily hidden from view.

The reality TV star was later spotted sharing 'a sweet moment' inside with her actor boyfriend, as reported by The Hollywood Reporter.

At the ceremony, Chalamet won Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Leading Role Award at the Screen Actors Guild Awards last month.

"I know the classiest thing would be to downplay the effort that went into this role and how much this means to me, but the truth is this was five and a half years of my life," the actor said in his acceptance speech.
