not really... like please leave a time stamp of who you’re talking about and i guarantee lady gaga did it better

[@Oheyitsclaudette]

The fact that some people don’t understand what they did in this video goes to show how little we think of writers and content creators. In this video they showcased how they created articles, contents, took photos, and organized all of the posts WHILE the MET gala was happening. They got content out not even an hour after the celebrities got on the red carpet. They were dressed in ballgowns just in case someone had to go up to get something, talk to an official, or fix something upstairs. We need to commend these people more because we keep consuming their product (which are the photos posted of the MET or articles in Vogue) without giving a single shit about who made it.

[@gaiamorgosi7181]

Exactly, they are the gala, they make it what it is, but they get the least out of it.

[@connorhessee]

That's exactly what I thought when they said they sit in the basement in ball gowns for NO reason working. The reason is because fashion does matter.

[@marymarks7046]

I was thinking the same thing. Fashion does matter. I am enjoying seeing all these young adults being apart of an amazing event. My daughter asked me how do you get an invite to the Met Gala being famous, an influencer in an epic way....

Honestly I like this little behind the scenes of the writers content So that’s how we get live news and articles They check the trends and then tweet post gram etc. also these people hold so much power. They basically decides who makes or break the internet Like I saw how all the celebs work really hard for the outfit but some are hardly noticed or overshadowed by others so this is it.

[@onionwarrior7447]

Nope, it's both the ed board and the public's! The editorial team can't put something out that the public will hate so basically they make a note of the top people the public likes (based on tweets/socmed comments), and just pick the handful they'll talk about (most likely based on that person's popularity, relevance, what non-fans are saying, etc.) their personal tastes don't actually have that much of a bearing usually.

[@daniellexoxo2856]

Honestly, this video is microcosmic of the reality of working in the fashion industry. It really strips away the veneer of glamour. If you're a fashion journalist, the reality is *not* being on the red carpet at the Met Gala, but sitting behind the screen and documenting it. If you're on the business side, you're on the computer for long hours just looking at fashion phenomena, but not really participating in the glitz and glamour. You also don't have great work-life balance as exemplified by the video.
