Kylie Jenner Suffers 'Embarrassing' Moment As She Tries To Kiss Timothée Chalamet At Award Show
Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet finally made their red carpet debut as a couple at Italy's David di Donatello Awards.
However, it is an awkward missed kiss moment between the duo that has gone viral and has fans questioning their chemistry.
According to reports, Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner chose not to attend the Met Gala together, prioritizing privacy and personal interests.
Jenner recently experienced an awkward moment that quickly went viral after being captured on live television.
She was in Rome supporting boyfriend Chalamet, who was being recognized at the 70th David di Donatello Awards, often referred to as Italy's equivalent of the Oscars.
While the couple has attended major events together, this marked their official red carpet debut as a couple. At the event, Chalamet, 29, received the prestigious David for Cinematic Excellence, celebrating his entire body of work, particularly his recent roles in "Dune: Part Two" and "A Complete Unknown."
However, Jenner found herself in a slightly uncomfortable situation during Chalamet's big moment at the awards ceremony. As his name was announced and the crowd erupted in applause, the couple shared a quick celebratory kiss.
But when she leaned in again for a second one, Chalamet caught up in the excitement and turned his attention instead to greeting friends seated nearby.
Left hanging, the makeup mogul quietly sat back down as Chalamet made his way to the stage, unintentionally leaving her momentarily sidelined.
Fans were quick to react to the awkward moment, with many taking to Reddit to share their secondhand embarrassment. One user wrote, "The ICK I felt during this video."
Others echoed the sentiment, suggesting a lack of spark between the couple. "No chemistry whatsoever. And he can't even fake it," one commenter said, per The U.S. Sun.
Another noted, "Ah, the kiss pull-away moment is so embarrassing for her." A different user chimed in with, "Literally and forced to kiss her, and the fact he rejected the second kiss lmaoooo."
Despite the awkward moment, Jenner turned heads in a stunning floor-length black gown featuring her signature plunging neckline and shimmering crystal embellishments woven into the fabric. She wore her hair in a sleek, tight bun.
Chalamet complemented her effortlessly, opting for a sharp black velvet double-breasted blazer paired with tailored pants, polished leather loafers, and a statement floral brooch.
Earlier this week, fans wondered if Jenner and Chalamet would make their official red carpet debut at the Met Gala, given they've only been seen together at private events and after-parties so far.
According to Daily Mail, Chalamet had considered attending but ultimately chose to skip the glamorous evening in favor of watching his beloved New York Knicks play.
"Timothée did consider going to the Met Gala," a source shared. "But he is a huge Knicks fan, and Kylie knows this. Kylie didn't bother him to go with her, and that's something he appreciates about her. She allows him to do his own thing."
The Insider added that while the couple did entertain the idea of attending together, they ultimately felt it wasn't the right setting.
"They didn't want to do the whole song and dance of it all together because it would have felt more like a chore over a fun date night," the source explained. "If it was Kylie's first Met Gala, or an event where she was being honored for something, then he would have been there 100 per cent, but they decided to do their own thing."
Last week, insiders revealed that Jenner and Chalamet's relationship, which has been going strong since 2023, thrives thanks to some carefully set boundaries, especially regarding public exposure.
A source told the Daily Mail that the couple's success largely stems from mutual respect for privacy, with Chalamet drawing a firm line when it comes to Jenner's reality TV world.
"Timothée made his intentions clear early [on] that he didn't ever want to be a prop," the source shared.
They added, "That is why he doesn't want to be on the Kardashians show and is only seen with Kylie at events."
Focused on being recognized for his talent rather than his personal life, Chalamet is reportedly keen on building a legacy as "one of the Hollywood greats."
The actor "wants to avoid falling into the trap of being known simply for who he is dating."
"It would be gut-wrenching. They both know that if he started appearing on the family show, then they wouldn't work," a source said of the couple.

Italy's Mt. Etna erupts, sending huge plume of ash and rock into air
A massive eruption occurred at Mt. Etna on the Italian island of Sicily, producing a plume of high temperature gases, ash and rock 'several kilometers high,' authorities said on Monday. The eruption, which began overnight, produced explosions heard as far away as Taormina and Catania, which are about 50 kilometers and 40 kilometers (31 miles and 25 miles) away, respectively, according to several witnesses who posted footage on social media. The National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology Observatory said that the preliminary observations show a 'partial collapse' of the northern flank of the volcano's southeast crater, which has produced spectacular lava flows during recent eruptions in the last few months. The Sicilian Civil Protection agency issued a Volcanic Observatory Notice for Aviation (VONA), which means all flight travel must avoid the area. The airports in Catania and Palermo remain open as, currently, the wind is not blowing ash in the direction of the airport. However, some flights from Catania have been diverted to Palermo, according to Flight Radar Data. Around 1 p.m. local time (7 a.m. ET), the volcano started spewing hot lava, which is more in line with previous eruptions, an observatory spokesman said. The observatory defined the volcanic activity as a pyroclastic eruption, resulting in a 'significant increase in volcanic tremor and the formation of an eruptive column containing a lethal mixture of high-temperature gases, lava grains, volcanic ash, and rock fragments of various sizes that rapidly descends down the slopes of the volcano.' This is a developing story.

One Man United Striker Overtakes Another As Top Target For Inter Milan This Summer
One Man United Striker Overtakes Another As Top Target For Inter Milan This Summer Man United striker Rasmus Hojlund has ovewrtaken Joshua Zirkzee as Inter Milan's top target at striker this summer. This according to today's print edition of Rome-based newspaper Corriere dello Sport, via FCInterNews. They report, however, that the Nerazzurri must convince United on a loan deal. Advertisement One thing that is certain is that Inter will have to shake up their attack. Marko Arnautovic and Joaquin Correa will be on their way out from the San Siro. Both are on contracts that expire at the end of the month. Moreover, the future of Mehdi Taremi at Inter is also uncertain. And the priority is clear: Inter want to freshen up the attack with younger signings. Man United Striker Rasmus Hojlund Overtakes Zirkzee As Top Inter Target In Attack MANCHESTER, ENGLAND – FEBRUARY 26: Joshua Zirkzee of Manchester United celebrates victory after the Premier League match between Manchester United FC and Ipswich Town FC at Old Trafford on February 26, 2025 in Manchester, England. (Photo by) Reportedly, Inter have sounded out a move for Manchester United Joshua Zirkzee. Despite a less-than-stellar season at Old Trafford, he still has the backing of the Nerazzurri management based on his time at Bologna. Advertisement However, according to the Corriere, it is a different former Serie A striker who Inter actually prefer. And it is a player who is a teammate of Zirkzee's at United. The Red Devils signed Ramus Hojlund from Atalanta in the summer of 2023. However, in his two seasons at Old Trafford, the Dane has never recaptured his form from his La Dea days. Nevertheless, Inter are still very keen on Hojlund. Therefore, report the Corriere, the Nerazzurri will go after him this summer. However, Inter would need Manchester United to open up to letting the 22-year-old leave on loan, whether it's with a purchase option or obligation. Meanwhile, the Corriere report that Inter also want Parma striker Ange-Yoan Bonny. However, they won't break the bank to sign the Frenchman.

Olive Oil May Cut the Risk for Specific Breast Cancer Types
A prospective study found that increased consumption of olive oil was associated with a reduced risk for breast cancer, particularly oestrogen receptor–negative (ER−) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2–negative (HER2−) breast cancers. A systematic review revealed that case-control studies more frequently reported this protective association, whereas prospective studies did not report any association. METHODOLOGY: Researchers analysed data of 11,442 cancer-free women (mean age, 54.7 years) enrolled in the Moli-sani Study (2005-2010) in Italy. Incident cases of breast cancer were ascertained through December 2020 via hospital discharge forms and validated through medical records and histologic reports. Total daily intake of olive oil was calculated on the basis of the participant's reported olive oil usage for cooking at home, defined as the number of tablespoons consumed per day. A systematic review was also conducted, which included 13 observational studies and one randomised controlled trial that explored the association between the consumption of olive oil and the risk for breast cancer. TAKEAWAY: During a median follow-up duration of 13.1 years, 295 incident cases of breast cancer were reported. Compared with women consuming two or more tablespoons of olive oil per day, those consuming more than three tablespoons per day had reduced multivariable‐adjusted hazard ratios (HRs): 0.71 (95% CI, 0.48-1.05) for overall breast cancer, 0.80 (95% CI, 0.28-2.28) for premenopausal breast cancer, and 0.70 (95% CI, 0.46-1.08) for postmenopausal breast cancer. Analysis of breast cancer subtypes indicated that each additional tablespoon of olive oil per day was associated with a reduced risk for ER− breast cancer (HR, 0.32; 95% CI, 0.15-0.69) and progesterone receptor–negative (PR−) breast cancer (HR, 0.59; 95% CI, 0.35-1.01). A higher intake of olive oil was also associated with a reduced risk for ER− and PR− breast cancer (HR, 0.32; 95% CI, 0.13-0.77) and HER2− breast cancer (HR, 0.54; 95% CI, 0.31-0.96). Eight of 11 case-control studies and the sole randomised controlled trial suggested protective effects of olive oil against breast cancer, whereas prospective studies reported no association. IN PRACTICE: "If confirmed by high-quality prospective studies and RCTs [randomised controlled trials], these findings could help in shaping evidence-based public health policies to promote olive oil as a component of the traditional MD [Mediterranean diet] in both Mediterranean and non-Mediterranean countries," the authors wrote. SOURCE: This study was led by Emilia Ruggiero, Research Unit of Epidemiology and Prevention, IRCCS Neuromed in Pozzilli, Italy. It was published online on May 24, 2025, in European Journal of Cancer. LIMITATIONS: The observational nature of the Moli-sani study could not lead to the establishment of causality. Dietary data were self-reported, which introduced potential measurement errors and recall and selection bias. Additionally, limited cases of different hormone receptor subtypes existed, which may have affected the statistical power of subgroup analyses. DISCLOSURES: This study received funding support from the Italian Ministry of Health and Fondo Crescita Sostenibile. The authors reported no relevant conflicts of interest.
