Kylie Jenner Just Subtly Poked Fun At Her Sex Life With Timothée Chalamet, And It Might Be One Of The Realest Things She's Ever Done
If there's one man who can get an LA girl to start cheering for the New York Knicks, it's Timothée Chalamet. As you may have seen, Kylie Jenner has joined her native New Yorker boyfriend at Madison Square Garden to support his beloved Knicks on two occasions now. And on both of those occasions, the Knicks took home the win. Did someone say lucky charm? She's even been posting selfies in Knicks merch, too. It's that serious. And so, as the Knicks continue their bid to make it to the NBA finals, Kylie has poked some fun at her newfound support for the NY team — and it might actually be one of the realest things she's ever done. On May 29, shortly after she sat alongside Timmy to watch the Knicks beat the Indiana Pacers in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference finals, Kylie reposted an iconic clip from Sex and the City, shared by the official Max account on TikTok.
