The SAG Awards 2025 were a night of glitz, cinema, and surprises, but one notable absence left fans buzzing: Kylie Jenner. The beauty mogul, who has been a constant presence alongside her boyfriend Timothée Chalamet throughout this awards season, was nowhere to be seen at the prestigious event. While Chalamet walked the red carpet with his mother, Nicole Flender, Jenner’s absence sparked curiosity and speculation.
Why did Kylie Jenner miss SAG Awards?
While Kylie Jenner has not publicly addressed her absence from the SAG Awards, she likely chose to not attend the event due to personal reasons. Her longtime hairstylist and close friend, Jesus Guerrero, recently passed away (via InStyle).
Guerrero, who worked with celebrities like Jennifer Lopez, Demi Moore, and Katy Perry, had been a significant part of Jenner’s life for years. His sudden passing away may have been the reason behind the Kardashian’s absence.
Jenner and Chalamet have been nearly inseparable this awards season, making their red carpet moments a highlight for fans. From recreating their iconic Golden Globes date night to attending the Berlin Film Festival on Valentine’s Day, the couple has consistently shown their support for one another. However, Jenner’s absence at the SAG Awards 2025 marked a rare moment when the duo wasn’t seen together.
Despite Jenner’s absence, Chalamet had a night to remember. The actor took home the award for Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Leading Role for his portrayal of Bob Dylan in A Complete Unknown.
In his heartfelt acceptance speech, Chalamet expressed his gratitude and surprise, saying, “I was not expecting this at all. This was five-and-a-half years of my life. I poured everything into playing him. It was an honor to play him, a true American hero.” He also paid tribute to acting legends like Marlon Brando, Daniel Day-Lewis, and Viola Davis, calling the award “fuel” to keep pushing forward in his career (via Billboard).
