Justin Bieber opted for a cozy night at home instead of the 2025 Met Gala.

Bieber, 31, shared a video of himself watching the Toronto Maple Leafs open their playoff series against the Florida Panthers with a 5-4 win at home with friends on the evening of Monday, May 5. Meanwhile, his wife, Hailey Bieber, hit the carpet at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

This year's Met Gala theme was Superfine: Tailoring Black Style and sought to honor the legacy of the Black dandy and the Black tailors behind some of the most iconic moments in fashion history.

The model and Rhode founder, 28, wore a black blazer mini dress, and teamed the double-breasted look with sheer tights, patent, platform pumps and a slew of Tiffany & Co. jewels. Hailey was seen with a martini in hand on the way to the steps of the Met, though she was no longer holding the cocktail by the time she walked the carpet.

The pair made their Met debut in 2021, and Hailey walked solo the following year.

Justin's choice to stay home comes after he shared a photo of himself on Instagram smoking a bong in the background of an image of Australian singer-songwriter Eddie Benjamin playing guitar on May 4.

The post added to the ongoing concern from fans about his mental health due to a series of vulnerable social media posts and an emotional plea to the paparazzi to stop photographing him.

Justin also shared a photo of himself on Instagram at Coachella in April allegedly smoking marijuana next to his 15-year-old cousin. In the video, which was posted on X in April, Justin is seen dancing in the crowd shirtless, with the alleged blunt-like object in his mouth. The camera then follows as he moves to the right next to his brother, Jaxon. (Bieber has four half-siblings, Jaxon and sisters Allie, Jazmyn and Bay.)

At the time, a source told PEOPLE that Bieber's former circle was concerned about him.

"He is facing a lot of different demons right now," the source said. "He is making some really poor decisions lately, further impacting friendships, money, and business."

The insider added, "People are worried about him."

Vogue announced Colman Domingo, Lewis Hamilton, A$AP Rocky, Pharrell Williams and Anna Wintour would be co-chairs for this year's Met Gala in October 2024, alongside LeBron James as an honorary chair. The event is a fundraiser for The Costume Institute and spotlights the museum's spring 2025 exhibition, Superfine: Tailoring Black Style.

Curator in Charge Andrew Bolton shared that the exhibit, which is inspired by guest curator Monica L. Miller’s 2009 book Slaves to Fashion: Black Dandyism and the Styling of Black Diasporic Identity, explores “the Black dandy as both a concept and an identity signifier.”

The exhibit “presents a cultural and historical examination of Black style from the 18th century to the present through an exploration of the concept of dandyism,” according to a post on the museum’s Instagram.
