For Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, the Met Gala was a smashing time.
Not only did the 2026 event mark his first time walking the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s front steps, but it was made all the more special with his wife Lauren Hashian by his side.
“This is our first Met,” Dwayne told Zuri Hall during Live From E!: Met Gala 2026, “and what’s cool about the Met is that, for us, usually with big red carpets like this you’re thinking about, ‘Oh, our opening weekend, what’s it gonna be?’ Or if it’s an event and you’re in competition for an award, but this is none of that.”
In fact, it made for a time when the Fast Five actor could relax and let his proverbial hair down.
As he put it, “It’s fashion’s biggest night. It’s our first, and it’s awesome.”
Also awesome was Dwayne’s look for the evening, a bold, black-and-white ensemble from Thom Browne featuring a tailcoat and skirt.
