Kris Jenner experienced an awkward moment on the red carpet at the Met Gala when she encountered Bad Bunny, who previously dated her daughter Kendall Jenner. The 70-year-old momager was seen walking with Kim Kardashian, 45, into the exclusive event at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York when the rapper approached them for a hug.
In a viral video shared on CNN's TikTok page, Bad Bunny, 32, leaned in to embrace Kris, who responded by clutching his arm but appeared confused, looking around awkwardly. This may have been partly because the rapper was heavily disguised in prosthetics, appearing as an older version of himself to match the gala's theme. He then briefly chatted with Kim before the trio parted ways.
Fans quickly took to social media to analyze the interaction. A Reddit user questioned, "Did they not recognise him or something???" Another speculated, "100% they have no idea who it is and I think he knows which is why he did that lol." On Twitter, one fan commented, "Kris Jenner is just living her best life, awkward hugs and all. She really is the queen of being everywhere at once." Another added, "That awkward side hug while he's rocking futuristic glam with Kim is pure Met Gala chaos."
Bad Bunny and Kendall Jenner were briefly linked in 2023 and sparked reconciliation rumors the following year, but both have since moved on. Kendall was spotted watching Bad Bunny's Super Bowl halftime show in February, indicating no bad blood. She is now reportedly dating actor Jacob Elordi, with sources claiming they were seen kissing at Coachella. An insider told the Daily Mail that the couple has been together for months and that Kylie Jenner may have introduced them.
