00:00Timothee Chalamet skipped attending this year's Met Gala with Kylie Jenner,
00:03but basketball fans would say he had a good reason. Jenner turned heads on the Met Gala
00:08carpet in a Schiaparelli dress that gave the illusion that it was slipping off of her,
00:12but her beau Chalamet was notably absent from the star-studded event.
00:16Turns out he was just a few miles away at Madison Square Garden for Game 1 of the New York
00:20Knicks
00:21second-round playoff series against the Philadelphia 76ers. They dismantled their
00:26tri-state area rivals 137-98, while Jenner was seen sitting courtside with Chalamet at a Knicks
00:32first-round playoff game against the Atlanta Hawks just last week. She likely couldn't miss the chance
00:36to strut up the Met steps alongside her sisters, Kendall Jenner and Kim Kardashian, as well as her
00:41mom, Kris Jenner. Known Knicks fan Ben Stiller also decided to skip the game in favor of attending the
00:46Met Gala with his wife, Christine Taylor. She told Vogue in an interview, quote,
00:50we are representing for the Knicks. We are wearing our Knicks colors. Still, Stiller was roasted
00:55online by basketball fans for choosing the Met over the game. Dave Portnoy of Barstool Sports wrote
01:00on X, if Ben Stiller picked the Met Gala over Game 1 of the Knicks game, he may have to
01:05turn in his man
01:05card. As for Jenner and Chalamet, the pair have recently walked the red carpet together at events
01:10like this year's Vanity Fair Oscar party and the Oscar-nominated actor's Marty Supreme premiere.
