If there’s anyone we’re shipping after the 2018 Met Gala – besides Mom and Dad (Jared Leto and Lana Del Rey) that is – it’s Hailey Baldwin and Shawn Mendes.
They hit up the Met Gala red carpet together looking like a pair of spicy hot potatoes, and hearts everywhere swooned at the thought that they might, *might* be 2018’s hottest new couple. As far as we know, they’re just there together as a one-off hang… but we do know this.
Hailey asked Shawn out over Twitter 5 years ago.

And Shawn knew about it – he tweeted back.
Just finding out now that @haileybaldwin tweeted at me !

Since then, the pair have kinda set tongues wagging – they claim they’re just pals, but they’ve been spotted together all through last year and at her Halloween party last year, People claim Shawn had his arm around her all night in a very coupley way.
Not to mention there were rumours via The Sun that they had their tongues down each other’s throats at the MTV EMA’s after party in November.
Whatever the case, they look ca-UUUTE together and we’re hoping this is a THING-thing, and not just two pals getting gussied up for what’s basically celebrity Year 10 formal.
