Video Footage Of Nick Jonas And Priyanka Chopra Looking Tense Next To Each Other At This Year's Met Gala Goes Viral Online
The 2025 Met Gala had numerous popular celebrities arriving at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City dressed to the nines, many of them adhering to this year's theme, which was "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style." Nick and Priyanka were among the most anticipated celebrity couples in attendance, as since they began dating in 2018, they have been photographed on the red carpet at several Met Galas.
This year, they wore coordinating black and white outfits, with the filmmaker sporting a long, black-and-white polka-dotted gown and the singer wearing a long-sleeved white top with black slacks. This year, things may not have gone as planned for the married couple of six years, as their outfits were deemed a "flop" by some internet users who felt they'd looked better in the past.
Perhaps their energy on the blue and floral-printed carpet was affecting how they presented themselves, as according to video footage of them posted on social media, they seemed a bit tense as they stood next to each other for pictures.
The footage was shared on Vogue and Vogue India's popular Instagram profiles. In it, the "Jealous" singer can be seen looking flustered and impatient as he stands next to his wife, waiting for her to adjust her outfit and pose so they can take good pictures for the numerous photographers.
That evening, Priyanka wore a famously large hat, which some compared to the character "Carmen Sandiego." In the viral video, it looked like her husband was annoyed with the hat as it kept covering his face.
Internet Users Speculate That Nick And Priyanka Could Be Having Marital Problems
While the awkward Met Gala interaction between the mom and dad-of-one may have just been a simple quarrel due to the pressuring nature of the situation, other internet users felt that something more could be going on behind the scenes, given their body language and behavior at the event. Fans and other social media users began weighing in on the situation after the video of them trying to pose for photographers went viral.
"[There's] no chemistry," wrote an Instagram user.
"It's like [they're] arranged for publicity."
"Something seems off between them," added another. An additional commenter wrote that "they don't look happy."
Other users focused particularly on Nick, given that he seemed to be the most frustrated out of the two in the video, as he tried to dodge his wife's large accessory and get through their appearance in front of the cameras.
"He doesn't look comfortable," commented an Instagram user.
"The way he was trying to move away from her hat," noted another.
Although the couple has not acknowledged the comments on their flustered appearance at the Met Gala, they seemed to get through the rest of the night together without any mishaps. However, it looks like fans will be keeping an eye on them, as more interactions like this could be signaling that something else is going on.
