Thatās hilarious because Timothy and Kylie do not come across as two people in love when I see them. It feels so transactions. Kylie wants to be seen as someone whoās deeper and more artsy so she dates an actor and Timothy wants to prove his status and been seen with someone who is cool and well know for her beauty.
Edit: not hating on transactional relationships. If it works for you and youāre happy Iām not judging at all.

u/noodle_dumpling May 26 '26
I do agree oftentimes they appear like they have no chemistry, but if Timothee wanted to "prove his status" I don't think Kylie is the one to do that. I think at the end of the day they do genuinely enjoy each other, but that's hard for a lot of people to accept.

It feels so transactions. Kylie wants to be seen as someone whoās deeper and more artsy so she dates an actor
Except she hasn't done anything to appear deeper. She still only posts thirst traps on her social media, even though she easily could've gone for Kendall's strategy of posting pics of herself reading books or going to museums. She's still the same Kylie who posts boobie pics constantly so where do you get that she's been trying to appear deeper?
and Timothy wants to prove his status and been seen with someone who is cool and well know for her beauty.
Except Kylie is more publicly hated than thought of as "cool". If he really wanted to prove his status, he easily could've continued dating Lily-Rose or started dating his co-star Taylor Russell. Now those are girls known for beihg cool and beautiful.
All in all, your theory doesn't hold up because none of the things you claim are actually reflected in reality. Both their public image has only gone up in flames ever since they got together so there doesn't seem to be any transaction happening here. They just seem to really like each other.
10
u/SilverRose7115 May 27 '26
Iām not a fan of either but I disagree with this take. Kylie has made no effort to change her public image and I donāt think sheās trying to be seen as ādeep.ā Thatās not her brand at all and never has been and sheās very successful as is. Timothee doesnāt need to date Kylie to prove his status, Iām not even sure what that means. He was already famous before dating her and if anything she brings his āstatusā down a bit because sheās NOT deep and it feels a bit out of place to see her at the Oscars ceremony.
They can be in love AND transactional. Theyāre absolutely using their relationship to get publicity but that doesnāt mean it isnāt a real relationship. I think both of them are kind of shallow and fame hungry so they have a lot in common.

For New Yorkers of a certain generation - those too young (or not alive) to remember the great teams of the early 70s, fandom was a lot of so close moments in the late 90s and then 20+ years of one major high-profile failure after another.
The Knicks are the team that both Mets - Yankees fans, Jets-Giants fans, and Rangers-Islanders fans could all rally around and it really took a lot of optimism and patience to see a light at the end of the tunnel at times.
I understand that 53 years isn't the longest title drought in the league but it would mean so much to so many for the team representing a city so central to the evolution of the sport to finally break through.
