Timothée Chalamet has been going allllll in promoting his new movie Marty Supreme, dressing in the film's signature orange color, launching this season's most coveted item of clothing, collaborating with EsDeeKid, and wandering around with people wearing ping-pong ball heads.
And apparently this hugely successful / viral press tour has shades of Kardashian.

"Timmy’s been 'Kardashian-ized,'" an "industry source" tells Page Six. "Both Timmy and Kylie are just into a different genre, the way they think about life and how they want to live. He has pretty lofty goals."

Timmy's been pretty clear about said goals in interviews, and another source explains "All big actors get to be full of themselves, it’s par for the course. He really cares about the craft for sure, he’s an actor with a capital A. But he’ll say ‘I don’t want to promote this movie using the old playbook and doing the same types of interviews … He’ll say 'Let’s make it fun, let’s do it different way.'"
As for breakup rumors between Timothée and Kylie, a source says "They’re definitely still together, but it’s not like she needs to be at every promotional event [to prove it]. Timmy’s pretty quiet about Kylie. But he’s pretty private as a person. They both want to be their own person, for sure. They’ll do some promo, but for the rest they want to keep things between them."
And speaking of promo, reminder that this happened:
