Met Gala 2026 Pretty Girlies at the Met When the theme and the dress code are as broad as they were this year at the Met Gala (similar to what it was in 2024 when it was something something the garden of time and sleeping beauty), the resulting fashion is basically what we would see at the Oscars, By Lainey • May 05, 2026 10:09 am
Met Gala 2026 Art Girlies at the Met The Met Gala happens inside a museum, which makes it 1) a great cover for a heist, as depicted in the documentary film Ocean’s 8, and 2) a place of preservation. Museums preserve everything from centuries of colonialism to a cool rock a guy named Doug found once on By Sarah • May 05, 2026 09:17 am
Met Gala 2026 Nicole, Lena, Doechii: Real Ones Are Paying In Blood Dramatic? Maybe, but I think everyone in this post would appreciate me going all the way over the top – after all, they did.

Met Gala 2026 The Hudson and Connor Go Outside Show The Met Gala was last night, and the vibes were kinda weird which might have been the Bezos of it all, OR all that wine I drank.

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.

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.

Celebrity Social Media Celebrity Social Media, May 1, 2026 The headlines about Pete Davidson and Elsie Hewitt are likely a precursor to a breakup announcement and hopefully it’s as copacetic as these situations can be.
