Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra returned to the Met Gala on Monday, though they were trolled by several fans for their unique looks.

The 2025 Met Gala theme was Superfine: Tailoring Black Style, inspired by the 2009 Monica Miller book Slaves to Fashion: Black Dandyism and the Styling of Black Diasporic Idenтιтy and coinciding with the Met’s upcoming exhibit on Black fashion.

Jonas, 32, and Chopra, 42, hit the red carpet in coordinated black and white looks, with Jonas decked out in Bianca Saunders and his wife in Balmain.

However, fans noticed that Chopra’s look was quite reminiscent of Bette Midler’s attire in the 1988 film Big Business.

Chopra’s white ensemble with black polka dots was quite similar to Midler’s ensemble in the movie, which Jonas opted for a cream colored turtleneck and scarf with black pants.

While there were fans that admired their looks on social media, many trolled the happy couple, with some also comparing Priyanka’s look to Cruella de Vil and Carmen Sandiego.
