Timothée Chalamet didn’t call Kylie Jenner by her name in Golden Globes speech - fans are confused
Timothée Chalamet has won Best Actor in a Musical or Comedy for his role in Josh Safdie's Marty Supreme, a performance for which he has already nabbed a Critics' Choice Award.
The sports-drama boasts a stellar cast featuring the likes of Gwyneth Paltrow, Tyler, The Creator and Odessa A'zion.
Other nominees in the star-studded Golden Globes category this evening include George Clooney for Jay Kelly, Leonardo DiCaprio for One Battle After Another, Ethan Hawke for Blue Moon, Lee Byung-Hun for No Other Choice and Jesse Plemons for Bugonia.
After his name was called, the 30-year-old actor gave his partner of three years, Kylie Jenner, a kiss before making his way to the stage as the crowd erupted into a booming chorus of cheer.

Chalamet used his acceptance speech as an opportunity to thank director Safdie, Ronald Bronstein, and his co-stars, saying: "If you had told me when I was 19 years old that I’d be thanking Mr Wonderful."
He finished by giving a shout out to his family and Jenner, adding: "To my parents and my partner, I love you, thank you so much."
Fans were clearly delighted by the sweet moment with one X user gushing: "She manifested Timothée winning the Golden Globe by dressing as the award!"
"Kylie seems so happy with Timothée, it’s so cute to see!" beamed another as a third chimed in: "Timmy got at least one trophy tonight SHEESH!"
Others, however, were confused over Chalamet's mode of address with a fourth hitting out: "Timothée Chalamet keeps calling Kylie Jenner his partner for whatever reason idk?"
"Has Timothée Chalamet ever mentioned Kylie by name in an acceptance speech? I feel like she's always just 'my partner'" asked a fifth.
Chalamet seems to be on a streak at the moment, given that just last week he beat out the likes of Leonardo DiCaprio for One Battle After Another, Joel Edgerton for Train Dreams, Ethan Hawke for Blue Moon, Michael B. Jordan for Sinners and Wagner Moura for The Secret Agent.
During his acceptance speech for the Best Actor Critics' Choice award, Chalamet echoed a similar sentiment.
He said: "Thank you to my partner for three years.
"Thank you for our foundation. I love you. I couldn't do this without you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, thank you so much."
Chalamet and Jenner were first rumoured to be dating back in April 2023, following her split from rapper Travis Scott.
After months of romance speculation, the duo were finally spotted in public together for the first time when they attended a Beyoncé concert at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles.
Since then, we've slowly seen them more and more in the spotlight together and it's safe to say we're all very excited what happens next for the cute couple!
Most shocking Golden Globes moments of all time
The Golden Globes is an award ceremony known for its candid speeches, unforgettable fashion moments and, of course, pure drama. Here are some of the most shocking and memorable moments the Golden Globes have brought us.
2025: Zendaya debuts her engagement ring
Starting off strong with perhaps the most jaw-dropping moment from last year's ceremony - the giant rock that Zendaya debuted on that finger.
While the Euphoria star is yet to publicly speak out about her engagement to Spider-Man frontman Tom Holland, a family source confirmed to PEOPLE that the couple are indeed set to tie the knot.
2024: Taylor Swift and Selena Gomez' juicy conversation
The internet was obsessed with the interaction between the two singers, causing fans to speculate what they could have been whispering and look so shook over.
While many assumed it was something to do with Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet, who were also both in attendance at that year's Golden Globes, Gomez later clarified on social media that she was telling Swift about 'two of her friends who hooked up'.
2024: Jo Koy's hosting falls flat
The comedian's first time hosting the Golden Globes unfortunately didn't go down as well as we imagine he'd hoped, with his jokes provoking a number of different reactions in the room - including Selena Gomez at one point putting her head in her hands.
Koy himself even seemed to acknowledge how his jokes weren't landing, saying to the audience: "I got this gig 10 days ago, you want a perfect monologue?!"
2020: Michelle Williams' speech on reproductive rights
After winning the gong for best actress in a limited series or TV movie for her role in Fosse/Verdon, Williams surprised the audience and viewers alike with a passionate speech about women's reproductive rights.
"I wouldn't have been able to do this without employing a woman's right to choose," she said. "To choose when to have my children, and with whom.
"I am grateful to live in a moment in our society where choice exists, because as girls and women, things can happen to our bodies that are not our choice."
2018: Seth Meyers' fiery monologue on sexual harassment in Hollywood
During his opening monologue of the 2018 ceremony, Meyers took aim directly at several disgraced Hollywood figures, including Harvey Weinstein and Kevin Spacey.
"Good evening ladies and remaining gentlemen... It’s 2018. Marijuana is finally allowed, and sexual harassment finally isn’t," he said.
2014: Tina Fey and Amy Poehler's dig at the men of Hollywood
The comedic duo weren't afraid to call out some of Hollywood's leading men during their 2014 Golden Globes monologue.
“Like a supermodel’s vagina, let’s all give a warm welcome to Leonardo DiCaprio," Fey said, while she said of George Clooney: "Gravity is nominated for best film. It’s the story of how George Clooney would rather float away into space and die than spend one more minute with a woman his own age."
Yikes.
2003: Jack Nicholson admits to being high on Valium
When picking up his award for best actor in a drama for his role in About Schmidt, Nicholson took the opportunity to tell the audience that he was, indeed, high on Valium - a drug used to relieve anxiety.
2001: Renée Zellweger’s poorly timed bathroom visit
When she was announced as the winner of the best actress in a musical or comedy award for her role in Nurse Betty, Zellweger was nowhere to be seen.
After Hugh Grant started to accept the award on her behalf, the Bridget Jones legend finally appeared on stage and admitted she'd been in the bathroom taking lipstick off her teeth. Bit relatable, if I'm honest.
1996: Brad Pitt thanks an anti-diarrhoea medication
Pitt won the award for best supporting actor for his role in 12 Monkeys, and he decided to dedicate his win to Kaopectate, an anti-diarrhoea medication.
"I’d like to thank...actually, the makers of Kaopectate,” the actor said. "They’ve done a great service for their fellow man."
