Jennifer Garner has opened up about never returning to Met Gala again.

It was 17 years back that she marked her first ever attendance at the event as a 35-year-old married to Ben Affleck and a very shiny well-known name in Hollywood.

But after gracing the occasion in a red colored Valentine gown, the actress was never spotted walking around its ball room again, although invites were still sent to her.

Speaking to Vogue in December, she revealed of having made that decision herself because the Met Gala seems scary.

“I went to the Met Ball exactly one time. I found it a little scary so I haven’t been back,” Jennifer Garner expressed.

It is however to be noted that she did make some fond memories from the only instance spent there.

For her, that magnificent designer dress is something that remains a special piece of cloth to date.

The star said, “I wore that night… this magical red Valentino gown and I was Valentino’s date, and that was really majestic and special.”

While it’s not known whether Jennifer Garner will be seen at the Met Gala again, her entry from the 2007 proceeding is even now looked back on as a perfect dream.
