Kendall Jenner & Bad Bunny Rekindle Romance Rumors After Met Gala Cuddle

Are Kendall Jenner and Bad Bunny back together?

As of late 2023, Kendall Jenner and Bad Bunny were over. After all, they’re both hot professionals with busy schedules.

However, both attended the Met Gala. Kendall looked stylish and hot, and Bad Bunny’s fashion choices showed that he clearly understood the assignment.

The two looked so cozy together that fans think that they’re either back together, or the coziest exes ever.

Both Kendall Jenner and Bad Bunny were at the Met Gala AND the same afterparty

On Monday, May 6, the Met Gala was once again the “Oscars of fashion.” The annual charity event featured the prompt: “The Garden of Time,” which took inspiration from J.G. Ballard’s 1962 short story of the same name.

After the fact, numerous famous faces attended the Après Met 2 Met Gala Afterparty at WSA in New York City.

Two of the attendees were Kendall Jenner and Bad Bunny. And they weren’t simply attending the afterparty together. They mingled.

According to Page Six, multiple sources spotted Kendall Jenner and Bad Bunny staying close to each other during the Met Gala afterparty.

“They were at the same table, laughing and flirting,” one insider reported.

That same source detailed: “She was rubbing his head.”

Kendall and Bad Bunny’s alleged PDA was reportedly pretty chaste

A second inside source clarified that, to the best of anyone’s knowledge, Kendall and Bad Bunny did not kiss during the event.

However, the insider did describe the two as cuddling on couches at the party during the night.

This source even specified that they were drinking Clase Azul cocktails during their cuddle time.

The report also specifies that Kendall and Bad Bunny both changed out of their extremely stylish Met Gala looks for the party.

Most attendees at the Met Gala wear expensive designer clothes, often in unique looks specifically to fit the year’s prompt.

While Kendall seemingly prioritized style and beauty over artistic risk-taking, Bad Bunny balanced the prompt with looks to delivery a stunning matador-inspired look. Which, for the record, is well in keeping with thematic elements of the The Garden of Time short story — which is about nobility and the inevitability of death.

As we previously reported, Kendall and Bad Bunny seemingly ended things in December of 2023. At that point, they had been dating for less than one year.

Though neither addressed the breakup directly with the public, reports described the breakup as amicable. The blame did not go to the supermodel or to the singer, but to their busy schedules.

There have been whispers of reconnections early this year. And, of course, competing rumors about Kendall and another ex, Devin Booker. Whatever the truth behind these claims, clearly Kendall and Bad Bunny are on pretty good terms.

Katy Perry Skips Met Gala, But Fools Internet With Ultra-Realistic AI Photos

Katy Perry was not in attendance at the 2024 Met Gala. But thanks to the power of AI, we know what it would look like if she had attended!

Katy’s past Met Gala looks have made her one of the event’s most iconic figures.

Unfortunately, work obligations prevented her from attending this year’s star-studded fundraiser.

So why is it that photos of Katy working the red carpet in a theme-appropriate gown went viral on social media last night?

Katy Perry’s Met Gala AI Photos Fool the Internet

Well, if you have any doubts about how sophisticated AI has become, these fake photos of Katy at the Met should be enough to convince you of the tech’s capabilities.

In fact, the pics were so convincing that they even fooled Katy’s mom!

Katy posted the above carousel on Instagram last night with a caption explaining her 2024 Met Gala situation.

“Couldn’t make it to the MET, had to work,” she wrote.

Kary included a screenshot of a text from her mother, who applauded her bold look at the Met.

“Didn’t know you went to the Met,” Katy’s mom wrote,” adding:

“What a gorgeous gown, you look like the Rose Parade, you are your own float lol.”

It might have been funny if Katy had gone along with the ruse, but to her credit, she quickly corrected her mom.

“lol mom the AI got you too, BEWARE!” she replied.

In fairness to Katy’s mom, the pics were incredibly convincing. And it was pretty surprising that Katy skipped the Met, which always seemed like one of her favorite events.

What’s Next For Katy Perry?

Katy didn’t offer any specifics with regard to what sort of work was keeping her away from the gala.

But her Instagram carousel concluded with a short video of her in a recording studio, so she might be on the verge of releasing some new music.

Whatever the case this, Katy is at a critical juncture in her career.

She’s leaving American Idol after seven seasons, and she hasn’t released a studio album in nearly four years.

Clearly, she’s planning some big moves at the moment. So we guess it’s not surprising that Katy Perry could only attend this year’s Met Gala in AI form.

We understand, of course. But her mom’s not the only one who wishes those photos were real!

Selena Gomez: Will She Attend the Met Gala with Benny Blanco?

Will Selena Gomez be attending the Met Gala with Benny Blanco?

Selena Gomez has swapped one look for another over the years, but she she remains consistently gorgeous.

That’s as true for her Met Gala appearances as anywhere else. Selena is a style inspiration.

Fans always wonder what look Selena will wear if and when she attends. And right now, they want to know whether Selena will bring Benny Blanco as her Plus One to the high fashion charity.

2014 was Selena Gomez’s first Met Gala

In 2014, she and other guests attended the “Charles James: Beyond Fashion” exhibition. Selena Gomez arrived in a jaw-dropping Diane von Furstenburg plum gown.

Selena has never needed a date on her arm to accessorize. Even though she has, in fact,

For Gomez’s very first Met Gala—in 2014, celebrating the “Charles James: Beyond Fashion” exhibition—the star wore a plunging plum gown by Diane von Furstenburg. It’s a timeless silhouette that set the tone for almost every Met she’s attended since.

In 2015, Selena honored ‘China: Through the Looking Glass’

Selena Gomez wore a white and deeply flattering Vera Wang gown to her second Met Gala.

The most eye-catching part of her ensemble was a bold bouquet of white orchids in her hair.

Some years, however, Selena sports a simpler hairstyle to allow the focus to fall upon her dress.

In 2016, Selena Gomez went subtly futuristic for ‘Manux x Machina: Fashion in an Age of Technology’

Selena did not try to outdo the most creative or campy guests, but she also did not ignore the Met Gala prompt.

Instead, she wore a Louis Vuitton embellished white slip dress below a leather corseted harness.

Simple jewelry accessories brought a flash of metal into the retro-futurist vibe.

Some would argue that Selena’s BEST Met Gala look was in 2017

In 2017, Selena Gomez dressed to impress for the “Rei Kawakubo/Comme des Garcons” affair.

Selena worse a white Coach slip dress featuring a plunging neckline. She often favors simple embroidery accents on her clothing, and 2017 is only one of many examples of that preference.

Notably, in 2017, Selena attended the Met Gala with The Weeknd. It was their red carpet debut as a couple.

2018 was a rare miss for Selena’s Met Gala looks

Selena’s majestic custom Coach dress worked well for 2018’s “Heavenly Bodies” exhibition. Her makeup, however, looked better in person than on camera.

After 2018, Selena took years off from the Met Gala. We don’t think that it was an “oh no, my makeup wasn’t photogenic and I’m too ashamed to show up” hiatus. She has been busy, working on her physical and mental health.

Fans want to see Selena return to the Met Gala in 2024 and beyond. But even if she’s on the Met Gala guest list, will she come alone?

Will Selena Gomez bring Benny Blanco to the Met Gala in 2024?

Ahead of the event itself, it remains unclear whether Selena Gomez will actually attend. Let alone whether she and Benny Blanco will make a Met Gala debut as a couple.

Many Selenators do not really understand the romance. That’s fine. It’s Selena’s relationship, not theirs.

If they do end up at the Met Gala side by side, it will be interesting to see their red carpet looks.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce Turn Down Met Gala Invitations: Why?

Both Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have declined their Met Gala invitations.

After taking weeks to nest with Travis out of the spotlight (mostly), Taylor Swift dropped a double album.

This is a huge time for Taylor’s career. And, in between football seasons, this is a major time for Travis.

So why are they thumbing their noses at the Met Gala instead of showing up together? They might have a very good reason.

Both Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce received Met Gala invitations

Turns out,as TMZ reports, both Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce RSVP’ed “no” to the biggest celebrity fashion event of the year.

Notably, Taylor and Travis received separate invitations. So this would not have been a case of Taylor bringing Travis as her Plus One.

So they both, separately, turned it down. That’s not quite the same as Taylor turning it down for both of them.

Why did Taylor Swift turn down the Met Gala?

No one needs an excuse to turn down an invite, even though the star-studded Met Gala is a charity event. However, Taylor has a solid reason.

The 2024 Met Gala takes place on May 6.

Taylor resumes her Eras World Tour on May 9 — that same week. She’ll need to travel to Europe and get everything set up in France. Taylor is putting her fans first.

Why did Travis Kelce turn down the Met Gala?

Unlike Taylor, Travis’ professional obligations are (mostly) on pause. One of the many football facts that Taylor’s fans have learned against our will is that the season ended before the Super Bowl and will not resume until late this summer.

So while Travis might be doing endorsements and other projects, he won’t need to grace any sportsball fields with his presence the week of the Met Gala. Unless he’s filming a commercial or something.

The most likely explanation for Travis’ absence is that he plans to travel to Europe to support Taylor as her Eras World Tour continues. He already said as much.

They may have a shared reason for turning down the invite

From the moment that the public first linked the two, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have been one of the most famous couples on the planet.

Taylor of course is a household name on multiple continents. And Travis was very well-known within the subculture of sports fans.

However, they have yet to make a “red carpet debut” of any kind. They’ve vacationed together and embraced on the field of the Super Bowl. But, if they attended the Met Gala arm-in-arm, it would be a major relationship milestone.

The Met Gala will still be a star-studded spectacle

Even without Taylor Swift and her athletic arm candy, the Met Gala will boast big names — including both fan-favorites and some exciting newcomers.

Taylor would be a welcome sight. So would Travis. It would be fascinating to see if Travis would stick to the prompt or pull a “looking camp right in the eye” ridicule-worthy flop like Karlie Kloss did in 2019.

It would be amazing if a football player outdid a bunch of alleged fashion icons at a fashion event. Oh well — perhaps at the 2025 Met Gala, if Taylor and Travis are still an item.

Met Gala Guest List Revealed: Which Stars Will Blow Us Away in 2024?

The 2024 Met Gala guest list is out!

Earlier this year, we confirmed that Zendaya would return to the Met Gala. That is no surprise; she is one of the most consistently stunning attendees, and she always understands the assignment.

Now that the new list is out, we can see other Met Gala all-stars on the list. There are also some exciting newcomers.

This charity event is one of the biggest events in celebrity fashion. Who among them will bore us to tears, and who will dazzle everyone?

The 2024 Met Gala will take place on Monday, May 6

Though Anna Wintour has the post to blacklist any celebrity she chooses from the Met Gala, the glamorous charity gala has broad guest list.

And thanks to Page Six, we know who has received an invite to the 2024 Met Gala.

Two exciting newcomers are Killers of the Flower Moon star Lily Gladstone and The Bear star Ayo Edebiri.

The same report notes that Gisele Bundchen scored an invite.

In past years, the model attended with her football DILF husband, Tom Brady. But he’s now her ex. Most recently, Gisele attended the gala solo.

There is speculation that she might bring her boyfriend, Joaquim Valente, as her plus-one. So this would be her first Met Gala with the jiu-jitsu instructor.

Who else scored a Met Gala invite?

Rihanna has been a true staple of the Met Gala. Someone who very consistently delights as she actually embraces each year’s prompt. She, too, has received an invitation for 2024.

Kendall Jenner is the only member of the Kardashian family who is reportedly confirmed for the guest list. She doesn’t exactly go all out for the Met Gala, but she is a supermodel.

Kim Kardashian has made a major splash at past Met Galas, though she has been controversial at times. It’s unclear if she or anyone else in the family will attend this May.

The guest list also includes Olivia Rodrigo, Uma Thurman, Sarah Paulson, and Cara Delevingne.

Cara is something of a celebrity social butterfly, friendly with everyone from Taylor Swift to the Kardashians to the Jackson family. The actor and model has been a Met Gala regular for many years.

Meanwhile, many are hopeful that Saltburn and Eternals hottie Barry Keoghan will blow people away with his look this year. In 2023, he made his Met Gala debut.

What is the 2024 Met Gala theme?

This year’s prompt is Garden of Time. That might sound like the title of a 1988 Thundercats episode, but it’s a very open-ended prompt.

We can expect to see floral motifs and timepieces … but some will get more creative with it than others.

Remember, this is a charity event. The tickets go for $50,000 per attendee — and also require Anna Wintour’s stamp of approval.

The Met Gala is a celebration of fashion itself. And it’s an opportunity for celebrities to go all-out and show off their creativity.

Or, at the very least, to display which creative designers are happy to dress them for the occasion.

We’re all excited to see when everyone on the Met Gala guest list steps out onto the red carpet. May 6 will be here sooner than you think!

Zendaya’s Returning To The Met Gala: Why Tom Holland Won’t Be With Her

After a 4 year absence, Zendaya will definitely be at the 2024 Met Gala – but without Tom Holland.

As Zendaya always makes a splash at the event dubbed “the Oscars of fashion,” it’s thrilling to know she’ll 100% be attending this year.

But fans will likely be disappointed to see her at the event without their favorite accessory: her boyfriend.

Zendaya To Co-Chair 2024 Met Gala With Jennifer Lopez

On February 15m, the 2024 Met Gala theme and co-chairs were officially announced.

The Costume Institute’s spring exhibition will be titled “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion,” and as always, will serve as theme for the opening night.

However, the official dress code for the evening is described as “The Garden of Time”.

Each year, a selection of celebrity co-chairs is appointed by Vogue’s Anna Wintour to serve alongside her.

Bad Bunny, Chris Hemsworth, Jennifer Lopez, and Zendaya have all been named as hosts.

And a host can not miss her own party!

This marks a delightful comeback for the Euphoria star, who has not been on the red carpet for the biggest NYC of the season since 2019.

Pity she can’t just recycle the outfit from that year. Remember, she looked like Cinderella!

Why Tom Holland Won’t Be At 2024 Met Gala With Zendaya

Though Zendaya has attended the Met Gala five times over her career, she has never been to the event with her longtime boyfriend, Tom Holland.

Actually, Tom Holland has never been to the Met Gala ever! So, seeing as his girlfriend is hosting, 2024 would seem like the perfect time for him to make his debut.

Except it’s very unlikely it will happen. Don’t worry, it’s not because they’ve broken up.

You see, the Met Gala always takes place on the first Monday in May. In 2024, that means Monday May 6.

Starting this spring, Tom Holland will star as Romeo in Jamie Lloyd’s new production of Romeo and Juliet at the Duke of York’s Theatre in London.

Tickets for the production sold out within minutes, as fans are dying to see Tom act up close and in person.

The production runs from May 11 to August 3, meaning his opening night is 5 days before the Met Gala.

Now, is it physically possible for him to do both? Of course! A flight from London to NYC is 6-7 hours. Nothing like flying from Tokyo to Las Vegas.

But will his schedule allow? That’s the real question.

It would be a real shame to miss a beautiful night, but our spidey senses are suggesting he won’t have the time to get away.

Here’s hoping we’re wrong!
