The question keeps surfacing with every big event: did Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner finally walk a red carpet together? As of today, no. They have appeared together at high profile moments but never posed side by side on an actual step-and-repeat.
The timeline is clear. Reports linked the pair in April 2023, then cameras caught them kissing at Beyoncé’s birthday Renaissance show in Los Angeles on 4 September 2023. People published cozy photos from the US Open on 10 September 2023, the same tournament that set a record 957,387 in total attendance, according to the USTA. And on 7 January 2024, the 81st Golden Globes aired on CBS, where broadcast shots of the couple chatting went viral as the telecast averaged 9.4 million viewers, up roughly 50 percent from 2023, per Nielsen figures cited by Variety.
Red carpet reality for Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner
Here is the key detail many search for and miss: joint event sightings are not the same as a red carpet debut. A debut means arriving together, stopping together, and getting credited together in photo agency captions on the press line.
Timothée Chalamet handled carpets tied to his releases solo. He fronted the London world premiere of “Wonka” in late November 2023 and led the “Dune: Part Two” press tour in February and March 2024, including the London premiere on 15 February. Kylie Jenner did not appear on those carpets.
Kylie Jenner, for her part, walked the Met Gala carpet on 6 May 2024 without Timothée Chalamet. Vogue documented her look and arrival, like it does with every guest. That matters because the Met’s photo call functions exactly like a film premiere’s step-and-repeat in how images are distributed to wires and photo desks.
Fans often point to the Golden Globes moment and ask whether that counted. It did not. They sat together inside the room. The red carpet comes before the show, in front of the photograher pens and sponsor wall. That is the box they have yet to tick.
Why a joint red carpet would matter for Chalamet and Jenner
In celebrity media, a joint carpet is a formal statement. Publicists coordinate arrivals, photographers tag the images, editors license them, and the story locks in across outlets within minutes. That single walk provides clarity that six months of rumors cannot.
The reach can be huge. The 2024 Oscars on ABC averaged 19.5 million viewers, its biggest audience in four years, according to Nielsen data shared by ABC. A couple debuting at a comparable stage would land in front of tens of millions on TV and far more across social clips.
There is also brand math. Timothée Chalamet anchors prestige campaigns and franchise tentpoles. Kylie Jenner leads beauty and fashion rollouts and appears regularly on a hit Hulu series. A joint carpet ties both narratives in one frame. That explains why teams often wait for a date that benefits both calendars.
What to watch next for a real red carpet moment
Right now, the missing piece is a press-line arrival together. The simplest scenarios are a film premiere where Timothée Chalamet is a lead, a top tier fashion gala where Kylie Jenner is a guest, or a major awards night where both attend and walk in sync. Those are the places where agency captions create the record fans expect.
Past appearances hint at the appetite for it. Their Beyoncé outing on 4 September 2023 became a headline magnet. The US Open date on 10 September 2023 landed across sports and lifestyle pages, with People and other outlets publishing detailed photo sets. The Golden Globes moment on 7 January 2024 rode a broadcast seen by 9.4 million, per Nielsen via Variety. Each time, curiosity spiked without the formal red carpet photo call.
Until a true step-and-repeat happens, expect more of the same: separate professional carpets, inside-the-room sightings, and occasional private exits that get photographed after the fact. When a joint carpet finally comes, you will know. They will arrive together, stop together, and the photo credits will read the same line: “Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner at the red carpet.” That is the unmistakable signal fans are waiting for.
