Chris Hemsworth reveals he broke one major rule at the Met Gala

Even though the Met Gala now took place over a week ago (6 May), it's clear fans are still chattering about all the weird and wild outfits, the celebrity blunders and the behind-the-scenes.

And one thing I'm sure many fans are interested in is what goes down behind closed doors at the prestigious fashion night out when the cameras aren't rolling.

From age limitations and smoking to a strict seating plan to keeping your paws off the artworks - it's clear Anna Wintour runs a tight ship at the helm of the Met Gala.

But, as we know, not everyone adheres to the rules including co-chair, Chris Hemsworth, who has revealed the one major rule he broke during the festivities.

The 40-year-old Thor star spoke to E! News about his time during the event, opening up about his no-no at the biggest fashion event of the year so far.

Chris rocked up to the iconic steps at the Metropolitan Museum of Art alongside his wife, Elsa Pataky.

Recalling the night, he said: "My wife and I, we live in Australia.

"So any sort of big awards show, we haven't become jaded because it's still new and exciting. And this in particular, eclectic group of people, different than the normal crowd of, you know, film award shows we've been doing...sports people, musicians, artists, so we had a really fun night."

While he only made his Met Gala debut this year, it's clear Chris wasn't scared about breaking the rules.

The actor confessed he took 'heaps of selfies', adding: "Selfies everywhere. A lot of selfies in my phone. Like, 'When did I take that? Let's delete that one'."

Well, he's definitely not the first to have broken that rule.

As per the Independent, Anna has placed a ban on celebs using their mobiles to take selfies and upload pictures to social media.

However, this has of course been broken on numerous occasions by celebrities such as Kylie Jenner and Billie Eilish.

So, what are the other Met Gala rules?

Well, for starters, you have to be a certain age to attend.

For the 2018 event, themed around Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination, an age restriction was brought in.

A Met Gala spokesperson later said the event was 'not appropriate' for anyone under the age of 18.

There’s also a strict seating plan to adhere to with Met Gala planner, Eaddy Kiernan, previously speaking about the seating chart and revealing just how strict it really is.

"We start with a seating document when the names come together in December," she told Vogue.

Sylvana Ward Durrett, director of special projects at Vogue, said in the 2016 documentary The First Monday in May: "A lot of thought goes into who sits next to who, if they sat together last year, if they've sat next to each other at other events, so much goes into it, it's shocking."
