Unfazed and unbothered, that’s the motto of Justin and Hailey Bieber’s Met Gala appearance.

We’ve said it once and we’ll say it again, just because the Met Gala happened on Monday, September 13, doesn’t mean people are done talking about it.

Despite the annual extravaganza seeing fewer celebrities walk the red carpet than usual, there was plenty of fashion and faux pas for viewers to feast their eyes upon.

Of course, Kim Kardashian’s all-black shadow figure ‘fit is all anyone can really talk about and meme about, which is exactly what she wanted to get out of the whole event.

Mr. and Mrs. Bieber kept their “American Independence” themed outfits very basic with all-black ensembles, which didn’t stop fans from reminding them of JB’s past.

Ireland got to chatting in the comments section and defended her cousin and cousin-in-law writing, “They’re one of the happiest and most in love couples I’ve ever gotten the chance to be around,” Ireland commented on the video. “They don’t care about them ?.”

One person responded to Ireland’s comment writing, “It’s just funny because Selena is one of the kindest people in the world and she would be so disappointed in these “fans” for doing this.”
