Hailey Bieber cozies up to pop superstar in VIP seats at Knicks game… and it's NOT Taylor Swift

Hailey Bieber was one of the many celebrities who attended game four of the NBA Finals on Wednesday night.

The 29-year-old model enjoyed the game from a VIP box suite, where she rubbed shoulders with pop star Tate McRae, 22, and comedian Jake Shane, 26.

Bieber was game-ready in a denim-on-denim look that included a cheeky Knicks T-shirt reading: 'New York's Biggest Thrill.'

She wore it with straight-leg jeans, a matching jean jacket, and black thong heels.

Her light brown locks were slicked back into a sleek ponytail with a center part. 

Following the Knicks's win against the San Antonio Spurs, the Rhode founder wrote on Instagram that she'd 'never been so on edge' throughout a game. 

McRae was also clad in Knicks gear as she modeled a vintage Knicks shirt.

Her long, bright blonde hair was parted down the middle and styled in long, face-framing layers. 

Meanwhile, Shane joined his friends in a long-sleeved blue shirt with orange trim.

It comes after last week the Therapuss podcast host attended the F1: Monaco Grand Prix 2026 in Monaco with Alix Earle and Anastasia 'Stassie' Karanikolaou.

Bieber shared an Instagram Story photo showing her side profile as she crouched on a chair in the suite, with blue light washing over her. 

Shane and McRae also took to their respective Instagram pages to share outtakes from the high-profile event. 

Other A-listers in the building at Madison Square Garden included Taylor Swift, Mariska Hargitay, Ben Stiller, and Spike Lee. 

Bieber's BFF Kylie Jenner was also in attendance alongside her die-hard Knicks fan boyfriend Timothee Chalamet.

Her husband Justin Bieber didn't appear to be with her at the game.

But the couple enjoyed a date night on Friday at Kid Laroi's concert at The Greek Theatre in Los Angeles.  

The Canadian pop star and the entrepreneur are at the height of their careers – the former recently made history as the highest paid Coachella headliner, and the latter sold her business for $1 billion one year ago.

Rhode was recently named one of Time's Most Influential Companies on a list of 100.

In the accompanying article she revealed she intends to grow her business empire.

'I'm an entrepreneur at the end of the day. I want to expand in business and I want to be able to do more things – but I’m definitely not in a rush,' she said.
