Formula 1 star Lewis Hamilton and BLACKPINK’s Rosé became the center of attention at the Met Gala after-hours event held at Casa Cipriani in New York. Fans quickly shared photo booth snapshots of the duo, especially a playful image of Rosé donning Hamilton’s signature shades. Their lighthearted moments generated widespread buzz across social media platforms, delighting admirers worldwide.
At the Met Gala red carpet, Rosé impressed in a tailored Saint Laurent ensemble featuring a shawl-style train, complemented by a Tiffany necklace and a sapphire-diamond ring. This marked her second appearance at the prestigious event since her debut in 2021. Lewis Hamilton, co-chairing the gala, arrived sporting a custom Wales Bonner outfit, complete with a cropped ivory blazer, satin-trimmed pants, long coattails, a structured bow tie, and a waist sash. The 40-year-old racer added a Stephen Jones beret to finalize his sharp look after competing in the Miami Grand Prix earlier that day.
During the Met Gala after-party, Rosé and Lewis Hamilton shared fun moments posing with aegyo, a cute Korean gesture, in the photobooth. These snapshots sparked an outpouring of affectionate reactions online, celebrating their camaraderie. Their connection had been previously highlighted when Rosé greeted Hamilton with a warm hug in Ferrari’s paddock before the Miami Grand Prix, and even waved the checkered flag at the event.
The 28-year-old artist recently announced her involvement in the upcoming Formula 1 movie soundtrack with her track Messy. Starring Brad Pitt and set to release on June 27, the film also features contributions from Doja Cat, Madison Beer, and Ed Sheeran. Lewis Hamilton not only appears in the movie but also serves as a co-producer, helping to train the cast, including Pitt, on maneuvering F1 cars. Director Joseph Kosinski emphasized Hamilton’s vital role during production.
Their collaboration extends beyond the Met Gala and film. Last year, Rosé and Lewis Hamilton shared personal stories during a RIMOWA interview, highlighting mutual admiration. Rosé described her 2023 Coachella experience as unforgettable, a sentiment Hamilton, who attended, readily supported. They reunited again in Seoul for RIMOWA’s ‘Mint & Papaya Collection’ event, strengthening their bond.
Their playful exchange and longstanding friendship at high-profile events like the Met Gala underscore Lewis Hamilton and Rosé’s growing influence in both entertainment and sports. Fans eagerly anticipate future projects where their paths may cross, signaling a promising partnership that merges music, racing, and style on the global stage.
