Priyanka Chopra to skip Met Gala 2024: “I’m definitely not attending this year because…”

Actress Priyanka Chopra has confirmed her absence from the Met Gala 2024, citing her busy shooting schedule for the upcoming film Heads of State in Europe. Despite missing the event, she expresses excitement about witnessing the creative displays from afar.

In an interview with Access Hollywood, Chopra shared, “I don’t even know who’s going this year. I’m definitely not attending this year because I’m filming, but I think I really do enjoy watching people’s creativity during the Met Gala and I am really excited to see how it will turn out. I actually have not read anything about who all is going this year.”

Priyanka Chopra, a veteran attendee of the Met Gala, made her debut alongside husband Nick Jonas in 2017 and has graced the event twice since then. Though she won't be present physically, she eagerly anticipates the fashion extravaganza, particularly acknowledging the presence of Zendaya, whom she praises as "amazing."

This year's Met Gala, themed ‘The Garden of Time,’ draws inspiration from JG Ballard's 1962 short story. Co-chaired by Zendaya, Jennifer Lopez, Bad Bunny, and Chris Hemsworth, the event promises a spectacle of sartorial creativity, with honorary chairs including Jonathan Anderson of Loewe and Shou Zi Chew, CEO of TikTok. Despite her absence, Priyanka Chopra remains a keen observer, eagerly awaiting the unfolding of fashion's most anticipated night.
