Nick Jonas dodged New York traffic by taking the subway to the 2018 Met Gala on Monday (07May18).
While most celebrities attending the Metropolitan Museum of Art event opted for a car ride to take them across the Big Apple to fashion's biggest night, the Jealous singer went for a more low-key mode of transportation.
He documented his day preparing for the red carpet on Instagram Stories, showing him exercising and going through the grooming process before sharing a video of a subway train pulling into a station with the caption, "Met here I come".
Nick also posted a picture of himself leaning against a pillar on the platform in his Dolce & Gabbana tuxedo, which he paired with black slipper shoes and a bejewelled crucifix necklace, a nod to the year's theme, Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination.
"Subway to the #MetGala @dolcegabbana #AltaSartoria," he wrote in the caption with a Statue of Liberty emoji.
The Jonas Brothers star also posted an image of an exit sign at 77th Street and Lexington Avenue station and added a sticker of "NYC" written inside a love heart. A member of the public spotted him leaving the station and posted footage of him walking up the exit stairway and wrote in the caption, "When @nickjonas get off your stop on the subway." Nick retweeted the video.
However, the user's next video proved that the 25-year-old didn't go the entire way on foot, as he got in a car for a short drive to the red carpet.
Representatives for Dolce & Gabbana shared an image of the star posing for photographers and wrote, "Nick Jonas wore an Alta Sartoria single-breasted shawl lapel tuxedo in black silk brocade with 24k gold thread and hand-top-stitching at #MetGala 2018. #DGCelebs"
