There's an old saying that goes "idle hands are the devil's playthings." Applied to the 21st century, it'd probably be more like, "bored people on Twitter will come up with the most ludicrous conspiracies."
At least, that's what appears to have happened with Kylie Jenner and her bodyguard, Tim Chung.
The theory began with an innocent paparazzi photo of Kylie and Chung, and then quickly turned into an online obsession.
Y'all really love to stir the pot, don't you?
"I am a very private person and would normally never answer to gossip and stories that are so ridiculous they are laughable," wrote Chung.
"Out of deep respect for Kylie, Travis, their daughter together, and their families, I would like to set the record straight," continued Chung.
"And I ask that the media no longer include me in any narrative that is incredibly disrespectful to their family," he concluded.
As a media outlet, we can totally respect that ...after we report on his public statement, of course.
In what seems like a subtle response to the situation, Kylie posted a photo of herself and Travis Scott at the Met Gala, captioning it, "Stormi’s Parents ?."
But despite both Chung's and Kylie's response, some people still aren't convinced that Travis Scott is Stormi's real father.
Sometimes, you just gotta let people have their opinions — no matter how wild they are — and then politely ignore them.
First of all, it only started because people were thristing over Tim Chung.
But we seriously doubt that these people would bet their lives on Chung being Stormi's father.
It was just bored people saying things on Twitter, not a serious accusation.
As far as we can tell, it was widely understood that this story was pure gossip.
It was really just the internet having some fun at the expense of Kylie Jenner — which obviously isn't a good thing, but isn't a new thing, either.
However, we find it difficult to believe that anyone truly had their bets placed on this rumor in the first place.
