Dumbass Intro for September 15, 2021 Dear Gossips, Met Gala hangover. For those of us who were covering the Met Gala and the VMAs before that and TIFF before that…yes. For the people who were actually at the Met Gala? Never. They partied again, last night. That includes Rihanna, who hosted her own Met Gala By Lainey • Sep 15, 2021 09:19 am
Met Gala 2021 Rihanna: The Monarch of the Met Gala It’s a truth universally acknowledged that Rihanna is the Met Gala Sovereign. No one else comes close to her on the First Monday in May or the Second Monday in September. Not even Zendaya. So Rihanna was the one we’ve all been waiting for. Especially since last year By Lainey • Sep 14, 2021 03:29 pm
Met Gala 2021 Carey & Kristen: Best Met Gala Prom, Barbie, and the Opry Big fan of both of these two actors for their work but also for their style, so their looks last night were near the very top of my list. On theme though, I think I might have to give the edge to Kristen Stewart so let’s start with Carey By Lainey • Sep 14, 2021 02:10 pm
Met Gala 2021 Billie Eilish: Best Movie Star at the Met Gala When you arrive to the Met Gala as a co-chair, we’re more critical of your adherence to the theme and there’s a sense of proving why you deserved to be on the committee. It’s definitely all eyes on you. You were one of the earliest confirmed attendees, By Cody • Sep 14, 2021 01:58 pm
Met Gala 2021 Yara, Halle, Regina, Ciara, and Lili: The Met Gala Assignment I know every year we complain about celebrities ignoring the theme in favour of looking “pretty” or designers sticking to their style instead of being inspired or challenged by the theme, but this year felt particularly… off. Maybe some teams didn’t make any serious plans until last minute, not By Cody • Sep 14, 2021 01:45 pm
Met Gala 2021 Simu and Timothée: Best of Met White So many people experienced their inaugural Met Galas last night – Channing Tatum, Ben Affleck, Simu Liu… Simu was a guest of Vogue proper and Instagram. He wore Fendi. As you can see, his white suit jacket is western inspired, with the black lined lapels and especially the trim on his By Lainey • Sep 14, 2021 01:27 pm
Met Gala 2021 Bennifer at the Met Gala For weeks and weeks we’ve been hoping for it. For Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez to show up at Venice premiere of The Last Duel and the Met Gala – and they delivered on both counts. How did we get so lucky? Do we deserve this? I’m not sure By Lainey • Sep 14, 2021 12:40 pm
Met Gala 2021 Keke Palmer Hosts the BEST Met Gala Carpet I want to know who it was. Who, at Vogue, had the foresight to know that Keke Palmer would absolutely transform the Met Gala carpet, which is crazy-loud in person but eerily quiet on live feeds… until now? Because I want that person to be my best friend, because they By Duana • Sep 14, 2021 12:25 pm
Met Gala 2021 Lupita and Tessa: Met Gala Western There were a few western interpretations of In America last night. Jennifer Lopez was probably the most extra – and, obviously, we’ll get to her soon. But there were other western style standouts, like Lupita Nyong’o and Tessa Thompson. Lupita wore denim Versace, perhaps the most elevated jean dress By Lainey • Sep 14, 2021 12:13 pm
Met Gala 2021 Zoë and Channing at the Met Gala Zoë Kravitz is not new to the Met Gala and certainly not new to killing it at the Met Gala. Did she look incredible last night? Yes. No doubt. She was in YSL, no surprise, since she’s a brand ambassador. The chain mail here is exquisite. There are YSL By Lainey • Sep 14, 2021 11:48 am
Met Gala 2021 Megan and Kate (ha!): Best and Worst of Met Gala Sexy Megan Fox’s return to pop culture over the last year has been… really entertaining, right? I’ve enjoyed it, I’ve enjoyed that she’s out here a lot, has been highly visible, but also still not a total open book. There’s still something unknowable about her and By Lainey • Sep 14, 2021 11:29 am
Met Gala 2021 Met Gala Couples: Shawmila, Jailey, and… Rititi? Am I the only one who thought Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello’s MET Gala looks were a complete miss? They were both dressed by Michael Kors, with Camila channeling a Studio 54 vibe. I like the colour and disco falls under the theme, but I don’t think the By Cody • Sep 14, 2021 10:56 am
Met Gala 2021 Iman, Gigi, Kendall, Emily, Lily: Models at the Met Gala Models are regular cast members at the Met Gala. It’s fashion’s biggest night – you could argue that they belong there more than the celebrities who often outnumber them. That said, most of the time, at least in my opinion, models are the least interesting models at the Met By Lainey • Sep 14, 2021 10:22 am
Met Gala 2021 Lil Nas X, Dan Levy & More: (Some) Met Gala Men Last night didn’t deliver the parade of inspiring men's fashion that I like to see from the Met Gala. This is supposed to be the one carpet where more conservative guys feel a freedom to take a risk. Unfortunately there were few risks taken this year, but By Cody • Sep 14, 2021 09:52 am
Met Gala 2021 Lourdes, Brooklyn, and Ella: Met Gala Offspring Madonna is a Met Gala regular. And I thought, after her stunt at the MTV VMAs on Sunday night, that for sure she would be there last night. Madonna being Madonna, an eternal provocateur, would have found a way to f-ck with the theme, In America. But she stayed home… By Lainey • Sep 14, 2021 09:21 am
Met Gala 2021 Leylah, Emma, Felix, Serena, and Naomi: Tennis at the Met Gala We know the behind-the-scenes queen (because Rihanna is the real queen) of the Met Gala, Anna Wintour, loves tennis, but the tennis contingent at this year’s gala was extra intense, starting with one player from Canada, whose star power expanded beyond those who follow tennis last week when she By Cody • Sep 14, 2021 09:06 am
