Timothée Chalamet references Kylie Jenner on the remix to EsDeKidd’s “4 Raws.”
The actor (turned rapper, at least on one song) brought up his extremely rich girlfriend’s net worth in one line that’s sure to be the caption to every Instagram post for the next few weeks. “Trying to stack 100 million, girl got a billion,” he raps.
Chalamet’s reference to Jenner centers on her nine-figure net worth thanks to her businesses, like Kylie Cosmetics. In 2019, she was briefly certified as a billionaire by Forbes, but the magazine revoked title the following year, saying that the Kardashian family "spent years leading the cosmetics industry and media outlets...to believe" that Kylie's cosmetics business was significantly larger and more profitable than it actually was. Forbes currently lists Jenner's net worth as $670 million.
Chalamet, for his part, is now in the movie star and financial big leagues. He will reportedly earn $25 million, the highest salary of his career, on an upcoming James Mangold film.
Chalamet being open about his relationship with Jenner comes a month after he declined to speak about their romance in an interview with Vogue.
“I don't say that with any fear, I just don't have anything to say,” he said about his refusal.
Chalamet’s verse on EsDeeKid’s “4 Raws” remix was released with a music video showing the two side by side, a nod to the long-running theory that both of them were the same person.
In an interview with BBC 1 Radio not long before the video dropped, Chalamet replied “No comment" when asked about his relation to EsDeeKid.
“All will be revealed in due time,” he said.
