Met Gala 2026: Must-See Celebrity Moments You Might Have Missed

The 2026 Met Gala was as star-studded affair as ever – but while you were poring through all of the best (and, indeed, most bizarre) looks from the night, there were plenty more moments you might have missed.

From the red carpet to the main event, the Met Ball is always home to a chaotic A-list moment or two, and we’re happy to report that this year’s was no exception.

Here are 13 star-studded moments you might have missed from Monday night’s bash…

1. Zoë Kravitz kept the whole world guessing about those Harry Styles engagement rumours as she posed covering up her left hand (it’s also been suggested that the ring that sparked all the speculation in the first place wasn’t actually worn to the Met)

2. Madonna’s outfit needed its own entourage (and its own theme music) to show it off to full effect

4. And while Beyoncé’s press rep previously dismissed the suggestion she’d use the Met Ball to launch her Act III album era – we can’t help but feel this might have been a sign of what was to come

5. The 2026 Met Gala was a night of prosthetics thanks to Heidi Klum and Bad Bunny

6. After walking the red carpet looking like a Star Wars villain, Katy Perry gave photographers a dramatic face reveal

8. Charli XCX had a great reaction to what may or may not have been a cigarette break with Connor Storrie before the event got in full swing

10. Once the event was in full swing, guests were treated to a duet from Stevie Nicks and Sabrina Carpenter

12. She and Katy Perry also reminded us of our favourite 2010s pop friendships (with a special appearance from Ciara, too)
