Chalamet's "friends" didn't hesitate to put his reported paramour on blast.

Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner may not be confirmed to be dating, but the internet certainly thinks they are. Claims of covert visits and secret dates have run wild in recent months, with everyone convinced that the pair are an item. However, turns out that not everyone is a fan of the potential pairing.

RadarOnline published an inflammatory report in which several sources reportedly close to Chalamet expressed their concern about the damage that dating a Kardashian/Jenner could have on Chalamet’s career. “Every guy who dates or marries one of the Kar-Jenners winds up on the scrap heap, wondering what happened to their reputation and career,” the source said. “Every one of those guys left their relationship with a Kar-Jenner worse off than they arrived. Kanye’s a walking trainwreck. Caitlyn is a desperately seeking attention has-been. And Kris and Tristan are both out of the NBA and jeered every time they walk into an arena!”

Genuine Concern Or Kardashian Hate?

Anonymous sources must always be taken with a grain of salt. However, what we can do is analyze their incredibly incendiary claims. It’s almost impossible to ignore the anti-Kardashian vitriol in the source’s quotes, which almost borders on slanderous. Blaming Kim Kardashian for Kanye West’s whole deal is almost textbook defamation. Setting aside whether Kanye West has mental health issues, the only person that made Kanye West a man who spews white supremacist talking points at every turn is Kanye West. Calling Caitlyn Jenner a “desperately seeking attention has-been” both reeks of unspoken transphobia and is completely subjective. She’s currently enjoying a presumably cushy gig on Fox News, regardless of how you feel about the station as a whole.

Furthermore, Kris Humphries played 13 years in the NBA and retired in 2017. Humphries was a solid role player who definitely isn't “jeered every time” he’s at an NBA game. Similarly, Tristan Thompson literally played playoff basketball this season. Additionally, Thompson has also spent over a decade playing in the NBA and once again, is not jeered. We must also address the exes that the source omitted. Travis Scott, the six-time Grammy-nominated recording artist, is the most notable ex left out by the source. Does he have some controversies in his past? Sure. Do they have anything to do with Kylie? No, not really. In short, this feels less like genuine concern for Chalamet and more like someone wanted to take a shot at the easy target of the biggest family in the world.
