1 year ago 8

It's the first Monday in May, and you know what that means... it's the Met Gala!

And while a TON of famous people will be in attendance, two very iconic celebs are sitting this year out: Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds.

Last week, when asked about the event, Blake told reporters that, unfortunately, she's not going this year: "I will be watching on my couch on Monday."

I know, I know, I'm just as heartbroken as you are...but here's the proof!!!

As for Ryan, he explained that he actually wouldn't even be in the US for tonight's event and instead will be in the UK with Rob McElhenney, his close friend and Wrexham AFC Football Club co-partner.

"We'll be in the UK," Ryan told Access Hollywood over the weekend. "We have Wrexham business to deal with."

So, there ya have it, folks. Here's to hoping for a Blake and Ryan appearance at the 2024 Met Gala.

And until then, let's just bask in these glowing photos from Met Gala's past.
