In a striking show of cross-friendship solidarity, model Hailey Bieber has publicly endorsed the forthcoming film project of actor Timothee Chalamet, who was recently reported to have split from her best friend, Kylie Jenner.
A Stylish Show of Support
The 29-year-old style icon took to Instagram on Friday, posing in a vibrant Marty Supreme track jacket to promote Chalamet's new movie, which is inspired by ping pong champion Marty Mauser. Her jacket, featuring a yellow, green, and white colour scheme, was a deliberate nod to her Brazilian heritage.
This public endorsement comes hot on the heels of a report by the Daily Mail earlier this month, where a source claimed that Timothee, 29, and Kylie Jenner, 28, had broken up. The source added, 'this has happened before — but she talked him into getting back together.'
The support for the film didn't stop with Hailey. Her husband, pop superstar Justin Bieber, 31, also got in on the action, sharing a selfie where he sported a pink version of the Marty Supreme windbreaker.
Chalamet's Grateful Response and Relationship Stance
Timothee Chalamet was quick to acknowledge the high-profile promotion. He reposted both of the Biebers' photos on his own social media channels. For Justin's picture, he added the pop star's song 'Speed Demon' and three goat emojis, signifying 'Greatest of All Time.' For Hailey's mirror selfie, he replied with three Brazilian flags and a fire emoji.
The actor has been notoriously private about his personal life. In a recent Vogue cover story, he firmly established a boundary regarding his relationship, simply stating he 'will not talk about' it. He clarified, 'I don’t say that with any fear, I just don’t have anything to say.'
Kylie Jenner, who shares two children with ex-boyfriend Travis Scott, had been dating Chalamet since early 2023 before their alleged split. The couple made a concerted effort to keep their romance out of the public eye, reportedly at the 'Call Me By Your Name' star's bequest, as he wished to be taken seriously for his work.
The Marty Supreme Marketing Blitz
Chalamet has been at the forefront of a vigorous and inventive marketing campaign for his latest film, Marty Supreme, which is due in cinemas on Christmas Day. His strategy has involved recruiting a host of celebrities, including Tom Brady, to wear the film's merchandise.
The promotional efforts have extended beyond celebrity endorsements. Chalamet recently posted a clip of an orange blimp flying over Hollywood, soundtracked to the 1982 song 'Sirius' by The Alan Parsons Project. In the video, the award-winning actor is seen dressed in an orange sweatsuit, tying into the campaign's central theme.
Even Google has become part of the strategy, generating a digital orange blimp animation when the movie is searched on its engine. This multi-platform push highlights the significant anticipation building for the film's release.
