Had Hemsworth gone with her, it would've been the couple's first time attending the event together and Hemsworth's first time at the Met Gala entirely.

The singer hinted she'd be attending earlier today on her Twitter. "Lol Bad A$$ edit!" she wrote, posting a fan's Photoshopped image of her 2013 Met Gala look. "Throwback to my first MET! Can’t wait for tonight! " Cyrus, of course, just released a shoe and clothing collection with Converse, hence the hashtag and hint she may be wearing something from the collection.
