5 Celebrities Who Are Banned from the Met Gala and 5 Who Just Don't Want to Go

[@juliasouza2534]

[@juliasouza2534]

@@elainagilbert7663 I agree with the last part. Actions have consequences. But to say that Anna was "standing up for her beliefs" is nonsense. She didn't like that their statements could make her look bad so she punished them for it. Miranda Priestly from Devil Wears Prada was based on Anna Wintour. Tim Gunn said Anna refused to go in public elevators and had people carry her down the stairs. I am saying this to highlight the fact that she isn't a good person. She wasn't standing for her beliefs, she was just being petty because she's a petty person.

@@roxy5588 You just share a deeply misogynistic and patriarchal opinion. The Kardashians have literally disrupted the ordinary patterns of television and social networks. They are all, especially Kim and Kris, incredible businesswomen and it takes great talent to build a company like Skims to such a high level. I don't think anyone should be except in serious cases like Trump. And if you want to talk about talent, let's talk about the talent you describe about Jameela and Lili, let's just talk about Riverdale, a lousy show in which Lili shows the same quality acting as the series. Don't talk about this dress damaged by Kim because if you look closely the dress was already damaged before and you know why? because these idiots from Ripley don't know how to preserve such a thing, the dress is exposed to the lights and it is permanently on a mannequin which is not the right conservation operation. Finally, you have the right to not like Kim or the Kardashians in general, we don't care and that's not the point of my comment, just your backward opinion is not welcome.

[@lilina_who]

@@merrytunes8697 Ok, let's start: 1) Name that content creator. I'd love to have a look at their video / article. 2) Do you know how preservation of fabric is done? Are you aware of the huge costs to climate control the storage and display cases for the clothes? They have more than 33,000 individual pieces of clothing to protect from decay. (And if you know how deterioration of fabric worked, you'd know the importance of the costs needed to do so.) An kilowatt-hour in NYC is about 22 cents. Sounds small but then you remember there are 33,000 pieces of clothing and accessories to store, not all under the same conditions and not all in the same container. I don't know the cubic meters of the storage units so I cannot do the math, but I know my wardrobe holds only about 300 pieces of clothing (socks and underwear included) if I pack everything very, very tight and folded beyond recognition of patterns on the t-shirts and dresses (which is the complete opposite of perfect fabric preservation). 3) We'll skip the fact that you should pay your staff decent wages as that should be the norm (especially when you're located in Manhattan). An employee at the MET makes an average 55,000 USD per year. Do the math from you ticket price and then check how much is left from that money for the operating costs. They have 23 named people on the website but behind every named one there are about double the amount of unnamed ones who keep the place running (talking about personal experience from my internship at an art museum in Europe). So let's take that number, roughly 70 people work there. So about 10% of this year's ticket sales go directly to employee salaries (probably a bit more since the named people get a higher salary than the unnamed ones, again talking from experience). 4) The MET had over 350 million USD operating costs in 2023. The operating costs of the costume institute are for one exhibition alone approx. 7 million USD alone. The gala gives you roughly 5-8% of the whole MET's operating costs in one night in incoming money (anything between 22 and 33 million USD looking at last year and this year). That is a huge amount and if all would go to the costume institute, that would be great. Sadly, not the full amount goes back to the costume institute. Instead, a part goes into the general budget of the MET, another is covering the costs of the event (roughly 6 million is spent on the party itself). I hope this helps a bit to put everything into perspective.

[@TombCat]

Taylor's terrible album is already forgotten. Kim is looking old and weird though.

[@cindyspowart555]

Beyond disgusting what she did to that iconic dress.

[@MrSaxobeat020]

​@@TombCat Taylor's album is one of the top albums of this year. She is already topping the charts. Maybe you're dislexic to forget things not everyone has a slow brain functioning like you.

[@maggie2465]

I think Taylor Swift also had enough of it. She doesn't need it.

[@PuddilyOops]

100% want to go! It’s about the clothes and the fashion. Who cares about the celebrities!

[@lynnewebley7270]

No: Unless there really good entertainment: Otherwise just strangers in a room: It should be more like a ball: Where people dance

[@lizzienorth]

I sweaaaaaaar❤

[@Sp1tfire_5316]

Im an introvert so the thought of getting dressed up in one of those over the top exaggerated dresses with pics been taken of u qnd the pressure to b perfect would make me die on the spot

[@EvanSol919]

How is Kim Kardashian not banned for ruining Marilyn's dress? 🙄

[@CJ-im2uu]

Garner'sdress was when tne Gala had normal wear.

[@art.of.verser]

I hardly bother with the exclusivity of society with such events like the Met Gala. I'm more than happy with getting invites to art shows; so, hard pass on MET gala invites for me. Happy Tuesday, Phoebe!

[@KaiOpaka]

'I hardly bother with going to events that never have and never will invite me.' Lol This is giving strong 'Jada, you're not invited but good luck with that boycott' energy. You're happy getting invites to art shows because that's all you can muster.

[@katarinaprnjak99]

Thanks Lili!

[@cedgson91]

Completely relate with feeling uncomfortable and getting major anxiety I wouldn’t go for these reasons either

[@beverleygorman3096]

What a vanity project and wtf if I was a banned celebrity I would think well I must be doing something right 🤷🏻‍♀️😂😂

[@TheBearAspirin]

02:33 "a major event" LOL

[@wandaclark5020]

Zendeya is 1 lady with long trailed flowered gown and short in front long in back red gown and black hat with magenta fushia gown is beautiful too.

[@beanstyled]

Garnier... J.lo being a Chair kept her away 😂

[@neshachristian-hendrickson5598]

I would go in a heartbeat

[@owenh.2265]

Andy Cohen was banned for several years but it was finally lifted this year. Andy had angered Anna Wintour by telling the media that her friend, James Corden, was drunk at the event when Cohen last attended several years back.

[@cedgson91]

Tim Gunn is banned?! 😮😮

[@MrReded69]

The only Gunn Ban that works in America!!

[@Richardsonprincess00]

Yes

[@Heyguhh]

0:58 Johnny Suhhhh!!!😊

[@sfernando04]

I would love to attend, I live for the fashion and a exclusive party

[@RachelReiss]

It should be mentioned that the Met Gala is the source of funding for the Met’s Costume Institute, which gets nothin from the museum’s general funds. Rather, the Gala has in recent years provided badly needed funds to the rest of the museum-and entrance to the Metropolitan Museum of Art is free to New Yorkers, and there are NEVER any extra fees for special exhibits there.

[@justlilyanne]

I'm glad to see this event being called out as "The Hunger Games" primarily by Gen Z on Tik Tok! It's disgusting that anyone would pay $75,000 to attend an event to raise funds for a damned Costume Institute. I know, it's their money to waste but for most of us that's a down payment on a house, a big payment on a student loan, lots and lots of groceries. (BTW, Gen Z rocks!)

[@MrReded69]

Well since so many women starved themselves to get into those outfits, Hunger Games is a fitting name!😜

[@terry3733H]

popularity conte$t thinly disguised as a charity event and greedy publicity stunt pretending to celebrate art and artists 🙄😑 the true motives explain why certain people are invited. I’d be surprised to see humble nice people like Keanu Reeves show up.

[@hdzzj6925]

Amy Schumer can just… say away and disappear. I have no idea why someone considers her to be “funny” or interesting to hire.

[@Animeguy300]

Thank you for the list

[@Lynnie501]

It costs $75000 to go to the Met Gala. I can think of a lot of other things to do with that kind of money. It's a foolish expense to dress up in stupid clothes. Why don't they wait for October for Halloween?

[@dhsf5937]

Not everyone pays to go.

[@petrilio]

And Anna gets a huge portion of that money. I doubt all proceeds go to charity.

[@Jamietheroadrunner]

I’m always so conflicted by Jameele. She needs to realize u can make ur point without seeming so smug and holier-than-thou or attacking her colleagues 🤦🏽

[@MrSaxobeat020]

You call out people no matter who they are, when it's wrong it's WRONG. I actually respect her for her honesty, A lot of celebs simp for each other so they can become rich and powerful by extortion. But she seems real to me.

[@f4p2]

You didn’t follow your premise. Banned? Maybe yes maybe not.

[@annafowdy]

Sounds more like they were just not invited.

[@LianaBuzea]

At this point, anyone who was cut out or didn't want to go is on the good side of the internet. Blockout 2024 is something many people do support. Maybe MsMojo can look into and make a material about the trend started by this very unfortunate event.

[@RajA-nu5mn]

If you are truly into fashion yes, you want to go. I love fashion, creativity, and talent. I also get that many people don’t get the whole fashion thing and make fun of it, etc. like most things it is subjective. I know the Met Gala is for the folks that are popular, musicians, models, actors/actresses etc. ppl like Tina Fey, Amy Schumer, Zane they’re not the audience for it imo.

[@william_at]

MET Gala is a Monster's Parade, is the stupid NYC freak carnival no sense. Most inteligent people refuse it, like all Friend's team.

[@MrReded69]

I can barely remember Hartnett in Oppenheimer but the M. Night Shama-Lama-Ding-Dong movie he's starring in might truly be his comeback.🤔

[@renshiwu305]

Josh was the handsome physicist.

[@NannerPuddin144]

Omg, I thought I was the only one that pronounced it as "Sham-a-lama-ding-dong"! 😂Great minds think alike!

[@Blech-h9z]

Why would anyone want to go anywhere Kim Kardashian is considered important?

[@the_midnight_mischief]

Of course I don’t want to go and I stand with the people who are putting their foot down and speaking honestly about the event! I’ve seen videos and interviews with people who were at the Met Gala and they all seemed so uncomfortable and like they want to leave and it made me feel as if they were being silenced for so long and stopped from expressing their views on the gala as a whole! It’s so disgusting and to see many people go for others’ throats is just down right barbaric and to say that you like to go just for that is inhumane and insane! Kudos to those who spoke up, I applaud you and I appreciate your works in all your shows and movies and those who were banned from the gala, there are many more galas out there that you can go to, the Met Gala isn’t the one for you so take it as a blessing that you can go.

[@RavagHer]

i might be old and out of touch, but wtf is the purpose of the met gala? like what do all those famous ppl go there for? is it a fashion show?

[@Jocelyn_Herrick]

That’s my question too

[@Jayytheegg]

It’s like a fashion show, yes And also used to raise charity funds

[@mel.mr99]

It’s a charity event

[@ROBYNMARKOW]

It's to raise $$ for the Met's Fashion Collection( which only people who are members can see anyway) It( The Met Gala)is a useless display of shallowness Imo.

[@thesandzv]

It’s the inauguration of the yearly costume institute’s exhibition in the Met museum. The gala itself is a fundraiser for the costume institute. It’s not a fashion show per se, but each year has a theme and a dress code to follow which a lot of people love to watch, it may not be your cup of tea but it’s indeed one of the biggest fashion events each year.

[@virgilsacoyda3345]

Met gala, is celebration of hypocrisy…..and not charity..

[@JoanneRVG]

I'd have to give some thought to attending the Met Gala…🤷‍♀️

[@RobinSpeer]

It's a guilty pleasure of mine to see the pics of the costumes the people wear but I wouldn't want to attend.

[@hfs212000]

Coachella and met gala both flopped this year

[@RM-eg1ed]

1:25 this girl is my spirit animal. I probably would have done the exact same thing.

[@ProfessorGamez]

And the significance of this event for the betterment of humanity is...?

[@jeffrienunez96]

I would love to go to the Met Gala

[@GuyNamedRy]

I feel like the met gala isn't even about art its just about How much influence the person has or status

[@Nickisuchafckndiva]

I LOVE FASHION I LOVE THE #METGALA AND I VISIT THE MUSEUM OFTEN IT'S SO COOL BUT IF THEY FEEL A WAY DO WHAT'S BEST FOR YOU

[@elarianasky]

I think like Tina Fey said, I'd like to go once but likely not more than that

[@sandrafernandez3839]

Sza looked beautiful

[@Jocelyn_Herrick]

Amy not going…. Sure.
