Hailey Bieber on Motherhood and Her New Hobby
The entrepreneur and model chatted with Emma Chamberlain at the 2026 Met Gala.

At this year's Met Gala, Hailey Bieber handed us a detail far more interesting than her look: a new obsession with home coffee-making. According to Vogue, red carpet correspondent Emma Chamberlain asked Bieber to name something she treats as a serious art form — and the Rhode Beauty founder bypassed the obvious (her blush contouring is practically a doctoral thesis at this point) to land on crafting a genuinely good cup of coffee.
"I'm a sugary coffee girl," Bieber told Chamberlain. "Not too sweet, but I like a flavored coffee." Her current repertoire reportedly includes banana cold foam and cinnamon crumble coffee, both made at home — which, frankly, sounds better than most café menus right now.
The Collab Nobody Saw Coming (But Everyone Wants)
The exchange got interesting fast. Chamberlain, who launched Chamberlain Coffee in 2019 and now runs two Los Angeles cafes, was clearly delighted by the confession. When Bieber floated the idea of a collaboration — unprompted, mid-interview, on the Met Gala carpet — Chamberlain's response was an immediate "I'm so happy you said it." Two women with serious brand equity, one shared flavor obsession, and a very public mutual interest. The groundwork has been laid.
What's worth noting here isn't just the cute celebrity moment — it's the specific kind of hobby Bieber chose to claim. Coffee-making at home sits at the intersection of craft, ritual, and self-sufficiency. It's tactile and slow in a way that most things in her world aren't. For someone navigating new motherhood while running a beauty brand, there's something grounding about a process that requires your full attention and rewards you with something warm in your hands.
The takeaway: Whether a Bieber x Chamberlain coffee collab materializes or not, the real story is that the most compelling thing you can bring to the Met Gala carpet is a genuine, low-stakes passion — and Hailey Bieber's is currently banana cold foam made at home, which is, honestly, very hard to argue with.
