Why Jennifer Garner Has Not Attended The Met Gala in Over 15 Years



Jennifer
Garner

catches
and
releases
invites
to
the
Met
Gala. 

The


13
Going
on
30
 actress
has
not
attended
the
iconic
event
at
the

Metropolitan
Museum
of
Art

since
2007—and
she
recently
revealed
why. 

“I
went
to
the
Met
ball
exactly
one
time,”
Jennifer
explained
to Vogue
in a
December episode
of
its “Beauty
Secrets”
series. “I
found
it
a
little
scary
so
I
haven’t
been
back.” 

Still,
the
four-time
Emmy
nominee
looks
back
fondly
on
the
2007
event. “I
wore—that
night—this
magical
red
Valentino
gown,”
she
added. “And
I
was
his
date
and
that
was
really
majestic
and
special.” 

The
year
that
the
52-year-old
accompanied


Valentino

to
the
event,
the
evening’s
theme
was “Poiret:
King
of
Fashion,”
which
honored
the
late
designer


Paul
Poiret
—an
artist
known
for
modernizing
women’s
style.

Jennifer
isn’t
the
only
celebrity
to
opt
out
of
the
event.
In
fact,


Demi
Lovato

and


Zayn
Malik
—who
both
only
attended
the
2016
gala—have
concurred
that
they aren’t
keep
to return,
with
the
“Heart
Attack”
singer

recalling
the “terrible
experience”
in

2018
interview
with

Billboard
.
