The 2026 Met Gala is right around the corner, and while the final guest list has yet to be announced, the stars rumored to be attending are a veritable who’s who of hunky men.
Pop stars Beyoncé, Sam Smith, and Sabrina Carpenter are all going to be at the big event, but there is also a huge laundry list of other celebs who are predicted to walk the red carpet.
Every publication seems to have its own list of famous actors, singers, and athletes who have that fleeting combo of star power, fashion potential, and a project or life event that has their names on everyone’s lips. From the stars of Heated Rivalry and Euphoria to your fave sexy pop stars, the list of potential guests will make your mouth water.
Whoever ends up walking up those red carpet-covered stairs to this year’s Met Gala is sure to be dressed to the nines in the most creative outfits you’ll see all year for the theme “Costume Art.”
There are sure to be surprises at the event, but these are the hot celebrity men who are rumored to be attending that we are hoping got invites.
Connor Storrie
Between his meteoric rise to fame and his penchant for high fashion and expensive jewelry, Connor Storrie is expected to be a shoo-in this year.
Hudson Williams
After starring in the biggest show of 2025, walking the runway for Dsquared2 at Milan Fashion Week, and making a splash on the Oscars red carpet, Hudson Williams will probably be one of the most-watched stars of the night.
Jacob Elordi
Between Euphoria finally returning with a new season and Wuthering Heights being one of the most talked about movies so far this year, Jacob Elordi and his sexy height will be one of the stars to look out for.
Colman Domingo
Colman Domingo is predicted to be on the guest list after being one of the Met Gala's co-chairs last year and blowing everyone out of the water with his dandy-inspired look.
Timothée Chalamet
Timothée Chalamet may not have taken home an Oscar for Marty Supreme like he was hoping, but he's still one of Hollywood's biggest stars.
Bad Bunny
After winning multiple Grammys and blowing everyone away with his Super Bowl Halftime Show, Bad Bunny and his impressive physique will hopefully be one of the stars walking the red carpet at the Met Gala.
Travis Kelce
Between Travis Kelce's proximity to T-Swift and their upcoming wedding that people can't stop talking about, the Chiefs' star athlete will probably be in attendance.
Harry Styles
Some publications are predicting Harry Styles will be at the Met Gala, and we're hoping they're right since not only is he hot, but he knows how to take a fashion risk.
Bradley Cooper
Bradley Cooper is aging like fine wine, and we can't wait to see how he looks in a perfectly tailored suit. Fingers crossed he doesn't pick a boring outfit.
Troye Sivan
Queer pop star Troye Sivan has been to the Met Gala twice before, and every time, he not only looks hot but also sports something that pushes the boundaries of what people are used to seeing male celebs wear.
Patrick Schwarzenegger
White Lotus star Patrick Schwarzenegger looked dapper at last year's Met Gala, so we can't wait to see how hunky he looks this time around.
