Met Gala Breaks Its Own Rule for Teen Guests

Beyoncé and Nicole Kidman reportedly sidestepped the Met Gala’s usual 18+ rule by bringing their teenage daughters, Blue Ivy Carter (14) and Sunday Rose (17), to the 2026 event. The article notes Sunday had school the next morning and reminds readers that minors have attended Met Galas in the past (e.g., Hailee Steinfeld, Elle Fanning), while hinting that future teen appearances—like North West—could become more common. It frames the decision as a host-driven exception within a tradition of adult-only attendance.
