Timothée Chalamet took home the Best Actor award for his role in Marty Supreme, where he portrays a professional table tennis player chasing the 1952 world championship.

During his acceptance speech, Chalamet made headlines for a rare public shout-out to his partner, Kylie Jenner. “Thank you to my partner of three years,” he said, addressing Jenner from the stage. “Thank you for our foundation. I love you. I couldn’t do this without you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.” The 28-year-old reality star was clearly moved, mouthing “I love you, too” back to him as the audience applauded. The pair sealed the night with a tender kiss, that was widely shared online.

Jordan, and Wagner Moura, highlighting just how significant this victory was for the actor. This was Chalamet’s fourth Critics Choice nomination. He had previously been recognized for A Complete Unknown (2025), Beautiful Boy (2019), and Call Me By Your Name (2018).

Marty Supreme has been a long-term project for Chalamet, who said he embraced every aspect of promotion and publicity in the spirit of his character. It’s a story about chasing your dreams,” he told IndieWire, explaining how committed he was to sharing Marty Mauser’s journey with viewers.

Dakota Johnson has found herself back in the celebrity dating conversation after TMZ first reported that the actress was photographed sharing an intimate dinner with indie pop singer Role Model in Los Angeles.

According to the initial report, Johnson and the musician whose real name is Tucker Pillsbury were seated close during a late-night outing at a dimly lit restaurant. The photographs, which circulated rapidly after being published by TMZ, show a relaxed exchange between the two, prompting renewed curiosity about Johnson’s personal life without offering confirmation of a romantic relationship.

The sighting comes months after Johnson’s long-term relationship with Coldplay’s Chris Martin quietly came to an end earlier this year. The former couple, who were together for nearly a decade, maintained a notably private dynamic, making any new public appearance alongside a potential romantic interest particularly noteworthy.

As of now, neither Johnson nor Role Model has commented on the nature of their connection. No representatives have confirmed a relationship, and subsequent media coverage has remained measured, framing the moment as a public sighting rather than a declaration.

Still, in an industry where appearances often carry weight beyond intention, the timing and setting of the dinner have been enough to keep Hollywood observers paying attention turning a single evening out into the latest point of conversation surrounding Dakota Johnson.

Mariah Carey marked the start of the new year with a high-profile return to Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve with Ryan Seacrest, reclaiming her place on one of American television’s most watched stages.

The singer appeared as part of the ABC broadcast welcoming 2026, a notable comeback nearly a decade after her widely discussed 2017 performance on the same show. This time, Carey’s return was framed as deliberate and assured, drawing attention for its symbolism as much as the performance itself.

While the annual programme is anchored in New York’s Times Square and hosted by Ryan Seacrest, Carey delivered her set from Las Vegas, joining a multi-city lineup that also featured Demi Lovato, 50 Cent, Chappell Roan and other major acts. Her inclusion stood out, signalling both a renewed presence on the broadcast and a recalibrated relationship with the event.

Coverage following the show highlighted Carey’s appearance as one of the night’s most talked-about segments, particularly given her long history with televised New Year celebrations and her enduring association with seasonal pop culture.

By stepping back onto the Rockin’ Eve stage, Mariah Carey closed a long-referenced chapter in live television lore and opened the year with a return that felt intentional, measured, and unmistakably hers.
