The MET Gala: Fashion Flair or Relationship Woes?
New York City – The renowned MET Gala, celebrated for its dazzling fashion and celebrity presence, has gained an unusual reputation—the “MET Gala Curse.” According to social media chatter, couples who pose together on the iconic stairs often see their relationships falter shortly after the event.
Notable splits have fueled this narrative. Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson, who walked the red carpet together in 2022, broke up just months later, citing long-distance challenges. Similarly, ‘Riverdale’ stars Lili Reinhart and Cole Sprouse called it quits less than a year after their 2019 gala appearance. The pattern continues with Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth, who divorced shortly after attending in 2019, and Gigi Hadid and Zayn Malik, who ended things in 2021 after multiple reconciliations.
Several other celebrity couples seem to have succumbed to the curse as well. Selena Gomez and The Weeknd’s romance ended mere months after their 2017 MET appearance, while Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott experienced an on-and-off relationship that culminated in a split in 2023, following their 2018 gala appearance. Even Hailey Bieber’s brief association with Shawn Mendes at the 2018 gala preceded her reunion and marriage to Justin Bieber later the same year.
Despite the curse lore, some couples like A$AP Rocky and Rihanna have defied the trend, growing stronger after their appearances. As speculation swirls, fans continue to monitor the fates of MET Gala couples, wondering if the steps truly hold a mystical power over love.
With its blend of glamour and whispered superstitions, the MET Gala remains an event that captures not only the eye, but perhaps, the heart.
