Angel Reese Just Made Her Met Gala Debut With A 'Preseason Game Tomorrow'

  • Angel Reese celebrated her 22nd birthday at the 2024 Met Gala.

  • She squeezed the event in between training camp and a WNBA preseason game.

  • The Chicago Sky star wore a 16Arlington by Marco Capaldo gown for the event.

Angel Reese sure knows how to secure birthday plans. The Chicago Sky star rang in her 22nd year in style last night at the 2024 Met Gala.

On the red carpet, Angel rocked a mint green 16Arlington by Marco Capaldo gown, which featured a plunging neckline, stunning embroidery, a floor-length transparent skirt, and feathered detailing around her waist. She kept her hair swept back and looked truly ethereal.

But it wasn't exactly a convenient trip for the so-called "Bayou Barbie." On X (the app formerly called Twitter), the WNBA shared exactly how busy Angel's schedule is.

“Training camp in the morning, Met Gala at night, preseason game tomorrow," the league wrote. Just another day in the life for Angel Reese.”

In a collaborative post with the Instagram account itself (NBD), Angel and her team shared some BTS photos and videos of all the madness. The post featured videos of Angel getting hyped up by her team in practice, holding a balloon on a shuttle bus, and stepping out of the Mark Hotel in NYC in her Met Gala 'fit.

“Best. Birthday. Ever. 🍰🌷✨," the caption reads. "It’s @angelreese5’s (Angel Reese) 22nd birthday and she’s making it a day to remember. After spending the morning practicing with her team in Chicago, the WNBA basketball star took off for New York where she’s attending the 2024 #MetGala for the first time.”

Angel even celebrated the day with a personalized cake and decorations that matched her gown. A dream!

"Hey y'all, it's Angel here. I'm super excited to be here for my 22nd birthday," she shared in one of the clips. "We're in the Met Gala!"

Angel, you are an icon!
