Kylie Jenner Criticized for 'Rude' Introduction to Elton John at Oscars

Kylie Jenner faced significant criticism for her perceived rudeness at the 97th Academy Awards after she remained seated while being introduced to Sir Elton John by her boyfriend, Timothée Chalamet. During a commercial break, Chalamet hugged John and introduced him to Jenner, who only extended her hand for a kiss rather than standing up to greet the music legend. This behavior sparked outrage on social media, with many users emphasizing the importance of showing respect, particularly to someone of John's stature. Critics expressed disbelief that Jenner did not stand, with comments highlighting that 'money can't buy manners or respect.' Despite the backlash, Jenner was seen interacting with other attendees, indicating that she chose not to stand only for Sir Elton. The incident has reignited discussions about celebrity etiquette and generational differences in manners.
