Timothée Chalamet has addressed the claims that Kylie Jenner would not let him have a photo with Selena Gomez.
Rumors about tension circulated online after an alleged incident in which Gomez had approached Chalamet for a photograph, only to be denied after Jenner allegedly wouldn't let Chalamet pose with her.
TMZ approached the Wonka actor to ask about the alleged incident, to be told that there was nothing going on, with the Dune star responding simply 'no'.

When the outlet also asked if he and Gomez, with whom he co-starred in A Rainy Day in New York, were okay, he responded 'of course'.
The alleged snub went viral after a video of Gomez whispering something to Taylor Swift emerged online.
The clip appears to show the pair spilling the tea together, with many fans taking to the internet to speculate about what they could have been talking about.
Suggesting what Gomez might have been saying, one wrote: “I asked for a picture with him and she (Kylie Jenner) said no” – Selena Gomez “with Timothée?” *Selena nods*"
Another wrote: "She was making sure to YELL that loud so everyone could hear her lmfaoooo," while a second added: "I just love Taylor's face."
But it seems that lip reading may not have gotten it right on this occasion, as Gomez' reps have put out a statement clarifying that she did not even ask Chalamet and Jenner for a photo at the event, meaning it can't be true.
In a statement to Entertainment Tonight, they said: "Selena never went up to Timothée and Kylie and asked for a photo."
A source close to Gomez also told PEOPLE that 'she was absolutely not referencing anything about Timothée or Kylie' and 'never even saw or spoke to them'.
Gomez has also since addressed what she actually said in the comments, replying to an E! News Instagram post: "I told Taylor about two of my friends who hooked up.
"Not that that's anyone business."
Chalamet and Jenner had appeared to be smitten with each other throughout the awards evening, which he was attending as a nominee.
An eyewitness told the Daily Mail: "They were at their table staring at one another.
"They didn't talk to anyone during the commercial break, they were just kissing... it looked like puppy dog love, like high school."
People were amused by Gomez's reaction to the set by Jo Koy in which he took an excruciating stab at Barbie, saying: "The key moment in Barbie is when she goes from perfect beauty to bad breath, cellulite and flat feet... Or what casting directors call 'character actor'."
Gomez was seen at her table with her head in her hands at the awkwardness of the situation.
