“I assume that he meant he was distracted during the show bcs of Kylie being there,” one Reddit user said of Timmy’s comment.
“This was cute! ‘Hard to be present’ at the concert. I really like him and Kylie together,” said another.
Over on TikTok, more users speculated that Timmy had been joking about being distracted by his and Kylie’s PDA. Meanwhile, some people guessed that Timothée had been referring to the heaps of “public attention” that their appearance garnered.
