Taylor And Travis Won’t Be Cosplaying As Prom King And Queen At The Met Gala

With the number of bangers dropped by pop’s biggest girlies lately, it feels like summer has to be coming any day now. But before summer comes spring and the hay fever season simply cannot begin until Anna Wintour announces some insane theme to make the rich and famous jump through hoops to have dinner with her. Taylor Swift is one of many megacelebrity guests whose invites have recently arrived in the mail and fans have been wondering if she will bring her unique style of dress to the Met steps. Taylor has at long-last delivered The Tortured Poets Department to her university of lovers, so it’s understandable that she’s been a little too busy to RSVP before now. But now that class is officially in session, Swifties are dying to see their queen bask in her Spofity-record-breaking success on the red carpet with her latest muse, Travis Kelce.

With all the buzz around their much-publicized relationship, it was natural to assume Taylor and her biggest cheerleader would be thematically garbed on the first Monday in May. But word on the street is that the chances of Taylor showing up and showing out have been swiftly dashed. So why are Taylor and Travis ditching the Met Gala? Let’s find out.

Taylor will be back on tour for the Europe leg of The Eras Tour and Travis is too loyal to go without her, I guess? Maybe we’ll see them both in Paris, instead.

Has Taylor ever skipped the Met Gala before?

Yes. In recent years Taylor has been more likely to skip the prestigious event than stand off against the industry’s high fashion hotties on the red carpet. Her last notable appearance was later the subject of one of her songs (because thinly veiled lyrics or it didn’t happen) was actually when she met her ex-boyfriend Joe Alwyn.

It’s been a while, so let’s refresh your memory. One of Taylor’s most memorable moments was her silver reptilian look for the “Manus x Machina” theme, with a bleach-blond pageboy that gives Tom Schwartz a run for his money. Before that, in 2014 Taylor went Old Hollywood in a pink Oscar de la Renta gown with a train longer than her situationship with Matty Healy.

Recent reports speculate that Taylor may find a way to the Met steps after all. Though unconfirmed, sources say with the European leg of her tour beginning on May 9 that the singer plans to work the red carpet before heading overseas. There’s currently no updated word on Travis’ possible attendance.
