New celebrity couple Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez went very public with their romance on the red carpet at Monday's Met Gala. 

Lopez shared several photos of herself with Rodriguez; the couple coordinated in Harry Winston cufflinks for him and jewelry for her. 

Lopez wore a sky blue Valentino gown with a sheer top layer that covered nearly her entire body -- a far cry from her barely-there dress at the Billboard Latin Music Awards. 

Rodriguez wore a black and blue tuxedo. 

Lopez shared a photo of herself with her new boyfriend on the way to the Gala on Instagram and wrote, "Me and my macho bello." Rodriguez shared a similar snapshot on Instagram and said he and Lopez were "ready" for the gala.

Rodriguez also showed that he's the perfect Instagram boyfriend -- he shared a photo of himself snapping pics of Lopez on the red carpet. "Admiring Jennifer doing her thing on the red carpet at the #MetGala2017," he said.
