Kylie Jenner, the girlfriend of actor Timothee Chalamet, was notably absent from the 2025 SAG Awards following the sudden and unexpected passing of her close friend and hairstylist, Jesus Guerrero, at the age of 34. Guerrero’s death was announced just hours before the awards show, leaving Jenner understandably devastated.
Despite Jenner’s absence, Chalamet attended the event with his mother, Nicole Flender, who stepped in as his date for the night. The actor ended up winning his first major award for his portrayal of Bob Dylan in the biopic “A Complete Unknown.” During his acceptance speech, Chalamet expressed his desire to achieve greatness in his craft, inspired by the greats who came before him.
Guerrero’s sister set up a GoFundMe page to help cover the costs of bringing him back to his hometown of Houston, Texas. The page quickly garnered over $80k in donations, showcasing the impact Guerrero had on those around him.
While Jenner has yet to publicly address Guerrero’s passing, her makeup artist, Ariel Tejada, paid tribute to him on social media. Tejada shared heartfelt memories and photos of Guerrero, describing him as a chosen family member who played a crucial role in his life and career.
The loss of Guerrero has undoubtedly left a void in Jenner’s inner circle, and the beauty mogul is sure to take her time to process and mourn the passing of her dear friend. As the industry continues to mourn Guerrero’s untimely death, his legacy as a talented hairstylist and beloved friend will undoubtedly live on in the hearts of those who knew him.
