A year ago, the world was introduced to the very concept of true love when Hiddleswift first danced in the hallowed halls of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

Now, it seems that famous people dating other people has caught on even if Tom Hiddleston and Taylor Swift are no longer standing on beaches fully clothed together. Here are the 10 best couples at the 2017 Met Gala.

10. Selena Gomez and The Weeknd

Selena Gomez and The Weeknd made their red carpet debut together and seemed to be very much in the honeymoon stage of their young, Instagram friendly love. They also get pettiness points for canoodling at an event his ex, Fyre Festival's promoter Bella Hadid, attended. Taylor taught you well, Selena.

9. Kendall Jenner and A$AP Rocky

God bless the kids for living the dream of groping each other in a fancy art museum while your relatives capture the whole thing on their iPhones.

8. J Lo and A Rod

Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez are great together because their relationship makes you feel like it could be any year in the past two decades, which is comforting! Obama is president. Girl Scout cookies are cheaper. The ozone layer is in slightly better shape.

7. Chrissy Teigen and John Legend

Are you still sleeping on The Americans? If so, thrilled to have this opportunity to guilt you for putting off this increasingly politically relevant Peak TV gem. How can you sleep at night knowing that there are like 67 hours of prestige television you need more than the restorative properties of slumber? Why are you even reading this when you could be pestering your loved ones for their FX login information?

5. Pharrell Williams and Helen Lasichanh

Committing to the Rei Kawakubo theme means uncomfortable body language with your significant other. For that, we salute Helen Lasichanh.

4. P. Diddy and Cassie
