Matt Damon, best known for his roles in films like Good Will Hunting and the Bourne series generally kept a low profile regarding high-fashion events. His decision to attend this year’s Met Gala marked a notable shift, generating excitement among his fans and fashion enthusiasts.
Damon, who made his debut at Met Gala 2024, recently shared a hilarious incident where the Air star reached the venue “fashionably early.” In an interview with Jimmy Fallon on his talk show, Tonight Show, Damon revealed the reason for attending the prestigious fashion event.
Matt Damon’s reason for attending the Met Gala this year was Chris Hemsworth and Jennifer Lopez, who hosted the event along with Zendaya and Bad Bunny. Hemsworth is Damon’s friend and Lopez is his best friend, Ben Affleck’s wife. So he and his wife, Luciana, planned a staycation at the hotel close to the museum.
On the day of the event, Damon and his wife were given a time slot of 6.23 to 6.30 PM. They decided to leave the hotel at 5 P.M and arrived so early that the tent at the entrance was not ready and the paps were eating and suddenly then started grabbing their camera to take pictures of the couple. The hosts greet the guests when they enter but the couple’s friends are getting ready, so they had an encounter with Anta Wintour. The Vougue’s editor-in-chief “welcomed us and she kind of made a joke because we were so early,” Damon told the talk show host. He added that Wintour asked them to check the exhibit.
The Met Gala, often called “fashion’s biggest night,” is an annual fundraising event for the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute in New York City. It attracts a star-studded lineup of celebrities, designers, and influential figures in the fashion industry. Each year, the event has a specific theme that guides the attendees’ attire, leading to some of the most memorable and extravagant fashion moments.
