Hailey Baldwin has a pretty bad history with theMet Gala.
The 24-year-old model appeared on Friday’s episode ofThe Ellen DeGeneresshow, where she opened up about why she believes the Met Gala is “cursed” for her.
“The first time I ever went to the Met, the morning after, I twisted my ankle and broke my foot. It was a whole thing. I was 18, so this was a long time ago,” she explained on the talk show. “But then the year after, 365 days to the day — because it was midnight of the Met Gala — I broke the same foot.”
Baldwin continued, “So I had this whole thing in my head where I was like, the night of the Met Gala or the 24 hours within the Met Gala are cursed for me.”

Guest hostYvonne Orjithen joked that the model — who’s made six consecutive appearances at the star-studded event — should consider not attending anymore, but Baldwin said she thinks her bad luck has passed.
“Well, it happened the two times and it hasn’t happened since,” she said while laughing before knocking on wood. “So, I think it’s okay.”
