THE KING AND I's Kelli O'Hara & Ken Watanabe Attend Both Met Ball & NY Pops Gala

THE KING AND I stars get glam!

The rapturously received revival at Lincoln Center Theater of Rodgers & Hammerstein's beloved classic musical THE KING AND I starring Ken Watanabe and Kelli O'Hara opened last month and the stars of the show appeared at two major NYC events in short succession earlier this week.

O'Hara utilized social media to share a pic of herself and Watanabe attending both the Met Gala and NY Pops 32nd Anniversary Gala in one night, commenting, "Attended the Visually stunning MET Ball. @Watanabe and I heading back to @newyorkpops gala at Carnegie Hall! #funfun".
