Take a trip back in time with these legendary photos of the\u00a0WWHL<\/em>\u00a0host and A-list actress as they hit the red carpet at the big event in glam fashions.<\/p>\n
As Bravo fans know,\u00a0Andy Cohen\u00a0invites some of the biggest names in entertainment, sports, politics, and pop culture to be guests on\u00a0Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen<\/em>\u00a0every week. And then there are times he scores an invite to something major (spoiler alert: it’s\u00a0the Met Gala).<\/p>\n
Occasionally on that first Monday in May when the annual charity event takes place, the talk show host mingles with Hollywood A-listers\u00a0outside\u00a0<\/em>the Bravo Clubhouse by attending the Met Gala. While most celebrities receive invites from designers whose fashions they usually wear to fashion\u2019s biggest night,\u00a0Andy’s invitation comes from his good friend, actress\u00a0Sarah Jessica Parker.<\/p>\n
And we have to say, they slay every single time they attend the Met Gala together. We’re reliving some of their most legendary BFF moments at the event with some epic throwback photos.<\/p>\n

While appearing on\u00a0WWHL<\/em>\u00a0in October 2016, Sarah addressed why she attended the Costume Institute Gala with Andy over her husband, Matthew Broderick.<\/p>\n
“First of all, he’s always doing a play, right? But also, I think he feels like that’s our thing, that’s our special thing,” she told Andy at the time. “He’ll go see it as a civilian.”<\/p>\n
What\u2019s more,\u00a0when\u00a0Andy and Matthew came face-to-face in the Bravo Clubhouse\u00a0in November 2016, viewers wanted to know if the actor was bothered by his wife going to the exclusive event without him. “No, ’cause you love it, right? And you’re great friends,” he said.<\/p>\n
