Justin Bieber shared a sweet shout-out in support of wife Hailey Bieber’s Met Gala outfit, after ditching the annual bash himself.
A$AP Rocky served as a co-chair for Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour, along with Pharrell Williams, Lewis Hamilton, Colman Domingo, and LeBron James. However, the NBA champ has had to pull out of attending due to injury.
The 28-year-old looked incredible as she wore a fashionable YSL look inspired by the theme Superfine: Tailoring Black Style at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on Monday night.
She opted for a short black blazer suit dress with super high platform black heels with a peep toe and sheer tights. Her hair was sleek and in loose waves and a side-part, adding to the 90s businesswoman feel of the ensemble.
And it seems her look left her partner impressed, as the Baby singer shared two snaps from the night, commending her red carpet choice and her after party look – consisting of a black pin-striped minidress, revealing her white lace bra.
Beside the upload, Justin , 31, simply wrote: ‘Tell em uncle Charlie.’
The Rhode founder was clearly thrilled with the shout-out, sliding into the comments with a string of emoji.
Although the musician wasn’t in attendance, fans were living for his public support and heaped praise on his efforts in the comments below.
Vicksxo11 wrote: ‘We love a supportive husband.’
‘You can tell he’s super happy and proud of her,’ Elegancebyroyyah agreed.
Tiziano.Raw said: ‘Real supportive husband.’
As K_b_f declared: ‘Justin posts more about his wife than his wife posts about herself.’
Justin was notably absent, having previously attended the event in previous years with his wife.
The star instead shared a video of himself watching hockey at home with some friends while the Met Gala was taking place.
The couple last attended the event in 2021, where it is thought that Hailey became emotional on the red carpet after being heckled by fans who were chanting Selena Gomez’s name.
She later revealed that she wasn’t crying and chose to keep her sunglasses on throughout the night as it was part of her look.
‘I felt like I had something in my eye,’ she told to Call Her Daddy host Alex Cooper at the time.
However, she did admit that she did hear the chanting and found it was ‘disrespectful’
Hailey wasn’t the only famous face going solo on the carpet, as best friend Kylie Jenner also appeared on the blue carpet without her high-profile boyfriend Timothee Chalamet.
Instead of attending the fashionable event, the Dune actor revealed on social media that he was watching the NBA semifinals game one as the Knicks faced the Boston Celtics.
Images showed him hanging out with a group of friends and watching some of the game on an iPad propped up on a table.
Sabrina Carpenter, Gigi Hadid, and Sydney Sweeney were also snapped on the blue carpet and looked beautiful in their sharp looks.
Sabrina risked an awkward run-in with her actor ex as it was confirmed that Barry Keoghan attended the fashion event.
The couple had previously attended the 2024 gala together so this could have been a rather uncomfortable meeting.
Gigi, 30, has been dating Bradley Cooper, 50, since 2023 but appeared solo at the gala, continuing their decision to keep their relationship out of the spotlight and as private as possible.
Sydney called off her wedding earlier this year and has been rumoured to be dating her co-stars.
For the Met Gala, she rocked the blue carpet solo in a custom black sequinned Miu Miu gown.
The biggest news from the event was Rihanna announcing her third pregnancy with A$AP Rocky. The star attended the event with her partner of five years but had a solo blue carpet moment, arriving separately at the event.
Confirming the baby news, A$AP Rocky told reporters on the blue carpet: ‘It feels amazing, you know.
‘It’s time that we show the people what we was cooking up. And I’m glad everybody’s happy for us ’cause we definitely happy, you know.’
‘Honestly, it’s a blessing nonetheless,’ he told the AP. ‘Because you know how like some people in other situations at times can be envious of other people.
‘But we’ve been seeing love for the most part. And we real receptive to that and appreciate that, you know what I mean? That’s love. Love is love.’
