Hailey Bieber attended the event alone; why was Justin Bieber missing

Hailey was seen posing for the photos just feet from long-time best friend Kendall Jenner. Hailey attended the Met Gala just a few weeks after her husband caused a stir online when a video of Justin, 31, kissing rapper Sexxy Red on the cheek went viral.
A recent social media activity also seems to indicate that the singer is simply enjoying a boys' trip; hence, it's not just ordinary for Justin to skip the Met Gala.
Madonna returns to the Met Gala in style with a bold power suit
On the other hand, Madonna made a triumphant return to the Met Gala red carpet on May 5, marking her first appearance since 2018.
