Ben Stiller Ditched the Knicks Playoffs for THIS

Ben Stiller straight-up ghosted Game One of the Knicks playoffs, and Christine Taylor just revealed why — and honestly, it’s a vibe.

The actress spilled that her husband prioritized the Met Gala over courtside seats at Madison Square Garden. Yes, really. \”Ben had a commitment to the Met,\” Taylor explained, noting that the fashion world’s biggest night couldn’t be bumped. We’re talking about one of the most exclusive events of the year versus basketball. Fashion won.

Look, we get it. The Met Gala is literally THE event. A-listers are scrambling for invites months in advance. But skipping your home team’s playoff game? That’s bold. Then again, Stiller’s been known to prioritize his work and events over the typical celebrity sports scene — he’s more art house than arena guy, if we’re being honest.

Taylor kept it cool about the whole thing, making it sound totally planned and chill. No drama, no eye-rolling, just logistics. She’s clearly the understanding spouse here. The couple, who’ve been married since 2010, know how to keep their priorities straight — even when those priorities involve haute couture instead of hoops.
