17 Couples Who Weren't Afraid to Get Weird on the Red Carpet
Red carpet events look like they'd be super fun, but after the 15th time having to pose for the camera, it probably gets a little boring. Thankfully, there are plenty of celeb couples and besties who put on a show for the paparazzi (and, ultimately, us fans). Check out some of their intimate moments below and try not to cringe or feel like you're invading their ~special moment~.
1. Charles Melton and Camila Mendes
The Riverdale stars were totally adorable at the world premiere of Charles's movie, The Sun Is Also a Star, in May 2019. Archie Andrews is shaking.
2. Lil Xan and Noah Cyrus
This whirlwind romance that resulted in a messy public breakup stole the show at the 2018 VMAs. At one point, Lil Xan was actually smushing his nose into Noah's face while she struck a pose for the cameras. Iconic.
3. Madelaine Petsch and Travis Mills
Riverdale's Cheryl Blossom had her hair licked (...OK) by her musician boyfriend, Travis, on the 2017 MTV Movie and TV Awards red carpet.
4. Ariana Grande and Pete Davidson
While this couple's insane romance resulted in a called-off engagement, we'll always have the moment they shared a kiss on the red carpet at 2018 VMAs.
5. Bella Thorne and Mod Son
The former couple (who apparently got married and later divorced?!) were all smoochy at the premiere of Bella's movie, Assassination Nation, back in 2018.
6. Kanye West and Kim Kardashian West
During the 2015 Grammys, Kanye got super handsy with wife Kim, making all of us a tad uncomfortable in the process.
7. Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber
Though Jelena is over now, we still have the memories! Before the American Music Awards began in 2011, Justin gave Selena a sweet smooch on the cheek.
8. Big Sean and Ariana Grande
The (now former) couple showed their love for each other during the 2015 Grammys red carpet. This pic, while sweet, is kind of awkward now.
9. Dove Cameron and Ryan McCartan
The Disney stars and former fiancés shared a tender moment during the Descendants premiere in 2015. Sob.
10. Chris Pratt and Anna Faris
Since you're already bummed after seeing that pic of Dove and Ryan, we'll just tack this next one onto your sadness. During the premiere of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 in April 2017, Chris stopped traffic and gave wife Anna a passionate kiss. The couple would announce their separation four months later.
11. Zayn Malik and Gigi Hadid
Attending the 'Manus x Machina: Fashion In An Age Of Technology' Costume Institute Gala together in 2016 (which explains why Zayn looked like he just stepped out of a sci-fi movie), the duo ignored the plethora of cameras and shared a moment that was all their own.
12. Chrissy Teigen and John Legend
These lovebirds are no stranger to PDA during awards shows, but they kept it a little less ~saucy~ during the 2016 Oscars red carpet. Of course, they were all lips in the press room at the 2015 Golden Globes after John won for Best Original Song for Selma.
13. Blac Chyna and Amber Rose
The besties showed off their adoration for each other during the 2015 BET Awards.
14. Common and Olivia Munn
Common took a moment during the 2016 Oscars to stop and give his former co-star from Date Night a peck on the cheek.
15. Chris Evans and Robert Downey Jr.
Superhero besties Chris and Robert had a picture-perfect moment during Captain America: Civil War's European film premiere in 2016.
16. Katy Perry and Russell Brand
The (now-divorced) couple went all in on the red carpet during the 2011 Grammys. Welp.
17. Jason Momoa and Henry Cavill
During the European premiere of Suicide Squad in 2016, Jason couldn't help but sneak up on bestie Henry and give him a hug. The duo went on to star in Justice League together a year later.
