Ben Stiller Offers Knicks-Sixers Blunt Message From Met Gala 2026
Stiller, a Knicks fan, said he wished he was at the playoff game after attending the Met Gala with his wife instead.
On Monday, May 4, 2026, actor Ben Stiller attended the Met Gala in New York City, missing the New York Knicks' playoff opener against the Philadelphia 76ers at Madison Square Garden.
Stiller and his wife, actress Christine Taylor, paid homage to the team by wearing orange and blue outfits, with Taylor stating, 'We are representing for the Knicks.'
'Right now I wish I was in Madison Square Garden,' Stiller admitted on the red carpet, predicting the Knicks would win the semifinal series in six games.
Conversely, fellow Knicks fan Timothée Chalamet attended the game courtside, while his girlfriend, Kylie Jenner, attended the Met Gala solo.
New York defeated the 76ers 137-98 in the series opener, and Stiller is expected to attend Game 2 on Wednesday night.
