The 2024 Met Gala is expected to draw A-list attendees, including co-chairs Bad Bunny, Chris Hemsworth, Jennifer Lopez and Zendaya.

While TODAY's Jenna Bush Hager interviewed Met Gala co-chair Anna Wintour ahead of the first Monday in May, she asked if she knew anything about Taylor Swift's attendance.

"I also had to ask, because Mila Hager asked if Taylor was gonna be there," Jenna said on TODAY on May 6, referring to her eldest daughter.

"And (Wintour) said, 'I hope she comes and enjoys the exhibit,'" Jenna said, in her best British accent. "So that could be yes, that could be no, which is what the reports are saying."

TODAY's Sheinelle Jones will be on the red carpet and can keep an eye out for Swift, who is currently on break from her "Eras Tour," celebrating the release of her record-breaking 11th album, "The Tortured Poets Department" and spending quality time with Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.

The Met Gala is set for May 6 in New York at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

So theoretically could Swift go?

Yes. Her tour is set to resume May 9 in Paris.

But will she?

TODAY.com has reached out to representatives for Swift and Kelce for comment.

Swift last attended the Met Gala in 2016 and wore a platinum short dress and bleached-blond hair for the “Manus x Machina: Fashion In An Age Of Technology” theme.

The singer hasn't returned to the event since. In that time, she has released six original albums, re-recorded four and launched two worldwide tours.Swift and Kelce, who went public with their relationship in September 2023, have yet to make their official red carpet debut, although they've appeared together at events — like Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes' annual charity gala — on several occasions.

After Paris, the European leg of Swift's "Eras Tour" will be in full swing with concerts most weekends until Aug. 20.
