Met Gala 2026 Bad Bunny: Met Gala Best Dressed (Lainey) Back in February, at the Benito Bowl, Bad Bunny wore two Zara custom fits for his historic performance. It was, to use a word I’ve avoided so far today because I’ve been saving it for this post… groundbreaking. Three months later Bad Bunny’s Zara is the cerulean By Lainey • May 05, 2026 03:24 pm
Met Gala 2026 Cardi B and the Met Gala Body (Parts) As I wrote earlier, when the Met Gala theme and its corresponding dress code are so broad, most people just use it as an excuse to turn the red carpet into the Oscars and go for pretty.

Met Gala 2026 Intro for May 5, 2026 Dear Gossips, It was the screaming that gave it away that Beyoncé had arrived at the Met Gala last night – and she made us wait. Not way past the wrap, unlike Rihanna LOL (as usual), but late enough to be near the end… which is not usually how it works By Lainey • May 05, 2026 06:55 am
What Else Gab did it better Reminder, we are live-chatting the Met Gala arrivals over at The Squawk at 6pm ET, please join us (open to paid Squawk subscribers)!

Madonna Madonna’s Met Gala Confession? Madonna’s been back at the forefront of pop culture since Coachella, when she confirmed that a new album is indeed on the way – and not just any album but the sequel to Confessions on a Dancefloor, 20 years later.

Timothee Chalamet Timmy’s family date Some of those rumoured Met Gala guest lists that I’ve been referring to the last few days – it’s worth remembering that it’s speculation, that apart from the co-chair and host committee members, no one is confirmed and there for sure will be a few who don’t By Lainey • May 04, 2026 12:55 pm
Connor Storrie HudCon to the Met Gala Exactly a year ago at this time, Hudson Williams and Connor Storrie were in Toronto, having just secured their leading roles in a small Canadian-produced drama with a tiny budget, and no one had ever really heard of them before. Now, a year later, they’re invited to everything, including By Lainey • May 04, 2026 12:05 pm
