Tyla and Doja Cat Set to Co-Host 2025 Met Gala Afterparty

South African star Tyla is once again making headlines on the global stage—and this time, she’s teaming up with the multi-talented Doja Cat for one of fashion’s most exclusive nights. The duo will be co-hosting the official afterparty of the 2025 Met Gala, an event that has the worlds of music and fashion buzzing with excitement.

The highly anticipated party is set to take place on Monday, 5 May, at Casa Cipriani in New York City, a luxurious venue known for hosting the rich and famous. While the main Met Gala event celebrates fashion with its annual theme—in 2025, it’s “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style”—it’s often the afterparties where the stars let loose and shine even brighter. And with Doja Cat and Tyla at the helm, expectations are sky-high.

Pop culture account Pop Base confirmed the news on X (formerly Twitter), posting: “Doja Cat and Tyla seemingly confirm their 2025 Met Gala attendance as they will be co-hosting an afterparty for the event.”

Doja Cat is no stranger to the Met Gala scene. In 2024, she co-hosted the afterparty with Diddy and Richie Akiva. Her return to the role adds credibility, but it’s her pairing with Tyla that has fans truly excited. While there has been no official confirmation from the artists themselves, the buzz is real—and it’s only growing.

Fans have been vocal online, expressing their joy and anticipation. One Tyla supporter wrote, “We are witnessing a Tyla Takeover, she’s gonna be everywhere!!!!” Another fan shared their excitement for both artists: “I’m so excited to see Doja and Tyla’s fits I know they’re going to be amazing hosts!”

Another fan simply said: “Iconic duo, can’t wait!” and “These Queens will slay when they arrive.”

While many are still hoping for a music collaboration between the two stylish stars, their joint appearance at the Met Gala Afterparty already feels like a major cultural moment. Whether it’s their outfits, the performances, or just the energy they’ll bring to the room, one thing’s for sure: this afterparty is already one of the most talked-about events of the year.
