Bad Bunny’s warm exchange with Kris Jenner steals attention at Met Gala 2026
Kim Kardashian was also present during the short exchange at the Metropolitan Museum steps
Bad Bunny drew attention at the 2026 Met Gala after sharing a warm and unexpected moment with Kris Jenner, briefly reuniting with members of the Kardashian-Jenner family on fashion’s biggest night.
The singer, 31, was seen greeting Jenner on the steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art during Monday’s event, where the interaction quickly became one of the most talked-about celebrity moments of the evening.
Dressed in a custom Zara suit and dramatic old-age makeup for the theme, Bad Bunny paused for a friendly exchange with Kris Jenner, who arrived in a copper-and-white Dolce & Gabbana ensemble.
The two shared a brief hug that was widely circulated online within minutes.
Kim Kardashian was also seen nearby during the interaction, dressed in a sculpted orange look by Allen Jones, as the trio exchanged a short conversation before moving on separately.
Notably absent from the moment was Kendall Jenner, who previously dated Bad Bunny for around nine months before their split in 2023.
Despite their breakup, both have maintained a largely amicable public dynamic in the years since.
The reunion sparked renewed online interest, particularly given the singer’s past relationship with Kendall, though there was no visible tension during the brief exchange.
Kendall Jenner also attended the Met Gala 2026 solo, wearing a draped flesh-toned GapStudio by Zac Posen gown inspired by classical sculpture.
Her sister Kylie Jenner also made headlines in a Schiaparelli illusion corset look that leaned into the evening’s bold fashion theme.
While the event centered on high-fashion statements, it was Bad Bunny’s casual interaction with Kris Jenner that unexpectedly became one of the night’s viral celebrity moments.
