Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet were spotted together in New York City on Sunday, May 3, ahead of the Met Gala taking place on Monday night. The couple was seen attending a special showing of the play 'The Fear of 13', based on a true crime documentary, and were joined by Kylie's mother Kris Jenner and her sister Kim Kardashian, who is a producer on the show.
Outing Sparks Met Gala Speculation
In a video obtained by Us Weekly, Chalamet, 30, is seen standing beside a car door as Jenner, 28, stepped out of the vehicle. The pair then grabbed each other's hands before walking across the sidewalk together. Kylie wore a black bodysuit with a trench coat and black thong heels, while Chalamet donned pants and a blue windbreaker. He waited for her as she exited the car, then took her hand as they walked to the venue together.
The sighting has naturally sparked conversation among fans, with many wondering whether Chalamet will be accompanying Jenner on the Met Gala red carpet on Monday night. The annual event raises money for the museum's Costume Institute and invites its guest list to dress thematically. This year's theme is 'Fashion Is Art', in alignment with the spring exhibition 'Costume Art.' Costume Institute curator Andrew Bolton spoke about the theme, saying that what connects every curatorial department and every single gallery in the museum is fashion, describing it as the common thread throughout the whole museum.
Met Gala History for the Couple
Last year, Kylie attended the event without Chalamet, wearing a sheer Ferragamo corset dress with a thigh-high leg slit, Lorraine Schwartz jewelry, and a wrap that was on theme with the night's 'Superfine: Tailoring Black Style' directive. Chalamet was last seen at the Met Gala in 2021, where he wore a white tuxedo blazer with black lapels, white sweatpants, and white Converse sneakers for 'In America: A Lexicon Of Fashion', which focused on popular street fashion.
Whether the two will make their Met Gala debut as a couple this year is something to watch out for, but Sunday's sighting has certainly set the rumour mill going. Fans are eagerly awaiting to see if they will walk the red carpet together, adding to the excitement surrounding the star-studded event.
