STRAY KIDS & KIM JENNIE AT THE MET GALA 2024..(I RAGED)

[@flower3611]

What’s bothers me so much is how SKZ was so excited to be there and for these paparazzi to treat them like that for absolutely no reason! I’m glad skz had fun, kudos to Bangchan for being an amazing leader and getting them out of there when he realized what was happening.

[@rahmashazly6912]

Right it broke my heart

[@Light-zd9fd]

Also gonna mention like 5/8 members are comfy with english and understand enough (leeknow, changbin, jeongin not really) and they were trying to listen when the paparazzi were saying to move closer etc……also with two fluent english speakers there they would understand everything it probably made them, especially bangchan feel sick

[@maggiemccauslin1084]

And what's sad is they are just going to get away with it cause I'm sure the place they work for won't hold them accountable

[@christenw.1726]

Repeat of how BTS has been treated in the US before? So sad that Americans are keeping the reputation for being racist rude and dumb.

[@limarba9062]

That's why I call them paparazzi because they’re sh*tty excuses for humans.

I felt like vomiting 🤢🤮hearing that s***. Rascism, makes me straight up sick & extremely angry. F***ing Furious in fact. We are all one & the same, as we all belong to one single group, it's called... THE HUMAN RACE. Not Caucasian race, or Asian race, or African- American race... but THE HUMAN RACE , which is ALL INCLUSIVE OF EVERY SINGLE ONE OF US, ON THIS PLANET!! We REALLY are ALL brothers & sisters under the skin. Skin is just like covers on a book, nature's dust jacket, to protect the individual pages within. Am I right? Of course I am. Rock on Stray Kids, you are 8 stunning & stoic bosses, you guys don't let NO ONE tell you where it's at, because , y'all ARE WHERE IT'S AT!

They hacked him so a link shows up in his bio, and when you click it is says “apologize to stray kids” (they didn’t do anything else visibly, but that’s terrifying to wake up to 😭. He deserves it tho)

[@keisehellen6727]

Now I wanna know too who is this mf😤

[@chandorasworld]

When I tell you I was HEATED. Those disgusting photographers need to be held responsible for their rude, racist remarks. Thinking they could get away with it because they didn't realize SKZ speak english. SKZ heard all their vile comments and stood there with class, Bang Chan got his kids out of there with grace. And the fact that this happened in the US, as an American it's so embarrassing and completely uncalled for.

[@3RACHASUPREMACY]

its sooo embarrassing fr omg 😭 its 2024....these people in professional settings felt too comfortable saying all that nasty shit...

[@maggiemccauslin1084]

I agree...

[@S30NGJ1N]

Things that were heard and done “I’m getting covid” (Said in the full video at 0:57 but it’s on Twitter) *Some of them mocking Japenese and Korean* *Continously yelling at skz* “They’re robots” (An asian stereotype) “How do you stand(or say) right in korean!” *Laughing at them instead of taking pictures* “Jump so you can show more emotions!” (They clearly didn’t seem to be happy at the photographers behavior) *Thinking skz didn’t speak English so they were shouting at them as if they were clueless or dumb* When Bangchan called the kids over to quickly leave the paparazzi said in a mocking tone *”As you were, as you were”* then bursted out laughing.

[@vxn3lla]

yeah i heard those and also they mocked kpop fans

[@Clmc_88]

plus my personal fav : "as you were", like seriously? a military command?

[@mai_unnie]

I personally think the ppl who said all of that should be feeling bad about it and apologize.

[@vxn3lla]

@@mai_unnie definitely

[@C4SSYDEE]

unfortunately for the photographer, our fandom is an expert in investigation and has already discovered his Instagram and has already hacked the account and put the phrase "apologize to skz" there.

[@QLevanter]

I'm so proud of Chan that he told boys to go when paparazzi said "everybody jump" and after that chan wrote a massage in bubble "every body treated us very well" ( a joke obviously) They were so excited to attend met gala and then they heard those? And it was obvious thet the boys heard and understanded the comments😢 even leeknow. ( he smirked) The paparazzi have to opologize. This is not justbabout Kpop. This is about the world and humanity. This can happen to a another normal guy or even me.

[@VictoriaShihFormoso]

They went there so manly and gentle with their stunning outfits just to be ridiculed and maligned for what???!!!!! They were sooo innocent.

[@kaykay_kkmaka]

VALID REACTION. I was so damn excited and happy when I was watching it live. Watching my babies make history. I was screaming like a proud mother. They look stunning. DO YALL NOT SEE HAN JISUNG???? HE ATE THAT SHT UP! THEY ALL LOOK BEAUTIFUL! Then hours later, cause I got off the live after Skz, I see the photos getting uploaded and the videos and im just over here fangirling over how find they look and that I knew they were going on tour soon with 40 cites and then I see THE videos. And when I tell you my smile faded so damn fast. That was the last thing I was expecting to see. I already knew skz were gonna get hate from hatters and anti fans from making history and just being there in general but I was not expecting to hear the nobodys, whos only job is to click a button, start being racist and rude asf! My blood was BOILING!! AS A BLACK PERSON IK WHAT ITS LIKE AND TO SEE MY BABIES GO THROUGH THAT SHT ON SUCH AN IMPORTANT STOP ON THEIR JOURNEY HAS MY EYES RED BRO. ALL I SAW WAS RED. I had fo eat ice cream after I saw all those videos to cool off. I watched Skz-Code to just to cool off since Skz-Code my happy place. Im disgusted. Do I feel bad he got doxed? Nope. Do I wish death on him? No. I hope he stays safe. But karma is karma. I HATE people like this, UGHHH!! He better lose his job. If not, we gonna have a real problem. Im not kidding.

[@Ace0307]

I feel you😢 I got really really upset when I saw those clips😢

[@BOO4YOU2]

I had 3 different streams going at once. I was so excited & had the one with the paps on the big tv & heard everything live & I was fn fuming. I wrote something straight away online. Finally, I slept & woke up 2 see everyone ripping into them. I don't agree with leaking addresses, bu I'm glad Stays & others have banded together against this. I've seen armies helping out as they dealt with it in the past too. But I also wanted to mention another stream I found on YT that was from the street point of view. They also were calling them Japanese as they also did no research, obviously. But they also wanted Jennie to get out of the way. Why, you ask, because they wanted to get pictures of Rita Ora. Why did they want pictures of Rita, because they were trying to get pictures of her nether regions, yes, they said that too. Fn Sickos

[@etherea9294]

I’m super upset that they experienced all of that but I hope the people around them made them feel comfortable and they were still able to have a good time. Props to Channie for handling the situation professionally and pulling his boys out of there.

[@lunerlilly]

Yeah the man with them in the red really likes them. And there was a very fun and respectful interviewer who made them feel comfortable. That's all I really know so far.

[@Capt_Ransom]

@@lunerlilly That man in red is Tommy HIllfiger who has been a famous fashion designer for many decades, the racist photgraphers are nobody. I would like to know who they are so I can tell them what I think of them. Not a good way to become known. Clearly the biggest disappointment did not know anything about Stray kids and how many of us Americans love them. He completely exposed himself. I just found out about this and I am proud of Stays for letting him know how much he screwed up, especially the hacker..I applaud them.

[@lunerlilly]

@Capt_Ransom ok, I didn't mean disrespect, I'm just not into fashion. O.O I honestly wouldn't know. I just thought he was very sweet, and he did a great job with their suits. They looked wonderful.

[@ChanglixStay]

OUR guys are way too professional to have someone like that get to them. But straight up that guy was racist 😢

[@justice7858]

And he wasn’t the only one

[@R-Lin]

They must have had a lot of fun in there. Changbin was even picked up by Chris Hemsworth and he was very excited. Chan was also very grateful to the Australians for taking care of them. We were angry but grateful to everyone else for the wonderful experience they had as well.

[@dawnabram8898]

I tear up every time I watch the treatment that Stray Kids received. This behaviour from the paparazzi is shocking . I am from Australia and I was lucky enough to be on holiday in Paris to see Stray Kids perform at Lollapalooza and what a difference the treatment SKZ received by the media. Unfortunately this is the vision we as viewers are left with. I am sure Stray Kids were treated with the utmost respect once inside the venue and had a fantastic night. Unfortunately for us Stays that were really looking forward to this event, have been left shocked and saddened . 💔

[@Misslou2425]

Its the myopia of those ignorant photographers that got to me. They automatically assumed that their comments weren't being understood...they actually were SO tone deaf and sure of themselves that they didnt even seem to think their behavior was wrong. Oh to be a fly on their wall today after all this pops off in their faces🙄. Stray Kids are ⭐✨ TRUE STARS ✨⭐

[@rudikfan1054]

Yeah, they did the same with Johnny from NCT at the Met Gala in the past, being rude and giggling 'it's fine, he can't understand us'. Was hoping for Johnny to look at them and go, 'You don't know I'm from Chicago, bish?' at them. Smh at the Met Gala paps being so ignorant and racist year after year. Just assuming they don't know English, ffs.

[@vxn3lla]

skz button up shirts also had flowers on them, and the inside of the coats like you pointed out representing the land side of the theme they weren't as extravagant as others but it was on theme

[@missjuli3613]

After the event, Chan wrote in Bubble about this: "I had a great time because everyone treated us with great respect 😊" Oh, I can only imagine how unpleasant it must have been for him after all this... I was just as angry as you after what I saw and heard... By the way, they found reporters who shouted it out, and showed them a "happy" life. Fans attacked them that they had to make all their pages private, and some deleted them altogether. They also appealed to the superiors and asked them to release these idiots. So, the fans did their job and showed all their power 🙃♥️✨

[@vxn3lla]

Jennie's outfit does match the theme its based off the short story the sands of time land, sky, and sea are involved, the blue and pearls on her waist and earrings represent the sea, and to me personally the train looks like a stream of water

[@CurlyhairedIslander]

NGL Jennie killed that look. thanks for briefly explaining her look🤍

[@ashessssssssssss]

honestly she looked so beautiful too. it really was like flowing water, loved it

[@meenakshimeena3139]

There is so much racism against Asian Americans post- pandemic in USA that is not often talked about. So I appreciate these channels that actually bring these issues to light. I’ve moved to USA as a small child and I am honestly getting sick and tired of dealing with racism while living here. And black people had to deal with this for centuries. It’s too hard.

[@JECKIDDING]

there are so many people in my school like those paparazzi people who make fun of the fact that me and my friend like k-pop and i can’t even express the fact that i like it without someone saying “k-pop sucks” or “how is it the same as normal people when all i hear is shing shong” it actually got me pissed when that one girl said that

[@vxn3lla]

hi just so you all know from reports Sean Zanni was involved, along with Dimitri Kambouris, however, Joe Pugliese and John Shearer (two others claimed to be racist against skz) cleared the rumors the two involved went private on ins and took down their websites, John shearer made a story and so did joe pugliese saying he doesn't even do events (I'm sure some of yall saw it already)

sean zanni has a singing account on SoundCloud too so he's making fun of skz and kpop fans but he couldn't even make it as a singer, he doesn't want to be there probably and that's why he's being unprofessional

When Bang Chan was like Nah, double clapped his hands, and went up the stairs, he didn't even look back. The members followed him, zero hesitation. One of the most controlled things, for real. Even if that dude didn't know that they lift, box, etc., how does he not know that professional dancers could literally round-house kick him in the face. Don't apologize for your reaction. It's like he wanted to get jumped, for real. Even antis want to fight this dude.

[@rilaism4178]

Vex - your reaction is exactly what I was feeling real time watching some of the live coverage..at the time no one had made the subtitle videos but I was picking up on the side chatter as some of the live feeds were running for different outlets and media. I was like “aw hell naw did I just hear what I thought I heard?!” And as I watched others come you didn’t really the same type of commentary 🤔 Anyway, that was just the sour moment that I was thinking too - most if not all of them can understand some of that commentary being yelled at them - esp Chan being extremely aware and engaged to help guide the boys thru. Regardless I think they still had a good time from what I could see

[@TsubasaAkai]

Thank you for talking about it and I´m so sorry for the bad experiences you have had to dealt with. I have been reading comments on other videos all day and I was very sad to see that some people didn´t see this as racism and discrimination when its so obvious.

[@Abcdef427]

Jennie thinks she ate it...but she really DEVOURED !! Her outfit, looks, confidence, body figure, everything was perfect, Iconic, pretty, Gorgeous, stylish and beautiful. The metgala theme The Garden is not just about flowers but also represents a nature, sea, sky and land . And Jennie obviously chose a sea, Ocean and looks like a beautiful mermaid Siren 💙

Jennie showed a level of class that many other celebrities didn’t. Showing off your butt under a sheer dress, is not the epitome of class….quite the opposite, and reeks of desperation of the “Look at me, Notice me” crowd

We can and should make our disgust with this behavior known to those who can do something about it. I have emailed Vogue and messaged Tommy Hilfiger on their IG page. I said that it was not only disrespectful to Tommy Hilfiger’s guests but to Hilfiger and Vogue also

[@nicolecunnington5373]

I hope that they get black listed and not invited to photograph at any future important events, which would essentially make them unemployable as photographers. It was just rude and not needed at all. And not only has Stay jumped on this, but the kpop fandom as a whole. I've seen so many, from all different groups fans, be upset at the treatment. They obviously had no idea what they were about to unleash

[@lellyluv302]

It really was disrespectful all round to SKZ & the event itself. I mean, who were these nobody paparazzi to be treating international celebrities & special guests of a prestigious event in that way? And now this incident reflects badly on the whole event on an international level 😒 They really are in the wrong profession if that’s the way they treat their source of income.

Honestly the respect for skz got higher after the met gala cause of if I was them I would be yelling back at the photographers but instead they kept it professional and respect to Chan for hearing all this and keeping his calm and Im not sure if u saw this but Chan had clapped his hand signaling it’s time for them to leave cause I know he was pissed off and it’s very funny how stays found they photographers work place where they live and their social media account even going so far that the photographer had to make their account private and now they know never to mess with skz or even any K-pop group because the fandom will get them and I hope that next year if skz go to them met gala again after this experience they get better treatment. Also very proud of them for making it this far and saying this as some one who got into K-pop like 2 years ago and I am very excited for their upcoming tour even though I’m not going to cause I’m a broke international fan but I’ll still be there to support them.

I don't know why everybody keeps missing it. Revealing the forty city tour was known, You can see it on their faces.

Despite what happened they sre getting so much exposure from even non Kpop fans. And they handled it so well. Chan got them out of there. Theres a reason hes the best leader. I also love the little bit diring Emmas interview where Felix translated to the others the question of who they thought was going to perform that evening. I just thought that was sweet. Also ur reaction is totally valid. Ive never watched the Met Gala. And it was my fiest time seeing them do a live stream. Like i never catch thier group or solo live streams. So i was excited. I didn't catch the renarks being made while watching it but i saw all the videos later. It was so disheartening. He thinks hes such big stuff when he was there to take thier photo. I genuinely hope he ans the others involved are never invited back.

Yes Vex, we love Stray kids and we love you thank you 🫶

[@Viaivy1]

I don’t care about the language or the madness in this video, I’m mad too x!!!!! You have a right to say anything!!!!!! It’s upsetting that people are jus5 being rude to stray kids and. Jennie for no reason.❤

[@corinacortez5541]

I hadn't seen all of what was said and done. This made me so angry. They deserved more respect. I am sorry they had to deal with that ignorance! They all looked AMAZING!

[@NicoleSanLucas]

Does any one else hear "SEO CHANGBIN!!!!!!!" in the back ground😭

[@mintaehyung9817]

Changbin looks exactly like that guy who plays gangster in kdrama. The one from Train to Busan

[@christineokabayashi4226]

I enjoy listening to the host of this video (is his name Vex?). He surely made me laugh at his comment about the woman either the orange hair when he said “woah, is this something out of the Hunger Games?

[@Abcdef427]

Tap on the shoulder ,he say ''yo JENNIE 👑💙

[@nicoleliberty6844]

I was so upset too! I am happy at how Chan and the guys reacted, but I hope that they know just how much they are loved!

[@phaxiong104]

I love this guys enthusiasm... awesome!! ❤

[@l0velyfl0wer]

Literally they did what every other person on that carpet did, which is stand their and pose for a photo

[@jaxxonsmh]

20:52 If you didn’t know stray kids fans was NOT playing they found the person who said “I’ve never seen so many unemotional faces” they hacked there website and changed it to text that says “Apologize to stray kids” they done doxxed him and got him fired

[@jennyb.2800]

You did a nice in-depth review of our Stray Kids! I enjoyed your video selections. I'm a long-time fan of SKZ music. They were very excited to be asked to attend the Met Gala as the first KPOP group to attend with all members. The 2-3 racially vocal photographers that disrespected them should be fired. Guess they didn't know that all the members of this Korean music group speak English! I applaud Chan's decision to end their turn and exit into the Gala. Very classy move on his part as their leader, as he didn't stoop to the photographers level. Like you, I was also upset by the disrespect. But Chan posted on Bubble that they were treated well and enjoyed the event with their Designer /Host and family. (ie: by someone who mattered.) Thanks for your review!

[@absurd_heart]

I think they did fit with the theme too because their suits were classic and timeless. The intricate details of flower broaches, lining, buttons and embroidery clearly showed the garden theme. I think it looked elegant and showed past suit trends in modern way. ❤️

[@xeshirem]

okay but like the first 90 seconds of the video before the racist stuff, hilfiger fit was so cool and made such a set like yooo the subtle detailing

[@nneichan9353]

on many of the clothing items SKZ wore there were flowers and vines, that were not visible until the coat lining and shirts were exposed but the theme was followed very elegantly.

[@Ree0387]

I'm proud of our Guys, keeping themselves calm when it comes to public events. This is what comes with being in spotlight BUT it doesn't give anyone the right to be disrespectful and rude. If your pictures didn't turn out well it's not because of the celebrities it's your poor language, Social communication and RESPECT NOT THEM.

[@riffpophop]

I got so mad when I saw that video. I have so much respect for them and how they handled it, but if it were me I'm not sure if I'd see red or cry. Idk how those photographers even got in but I hope they are fired and get a wake up call. You cant disrespect people like that and get away with it, and when either are public figures thats doubley true. Straight up blatant racism, calling them emotionless and basically saying all asian people look the same. Mocking them and trying to get them to do dumb shit for a headline and overall disrespecting both them and their profession. Stays apparently tracked the guy(s) down and I hope they get what they deserve.

[@apurvaanand5196]

BRO THATS NOT THE WORST OF IT… ONE OF THEM SAID THEYRE GONNA GET COVID FROM THEM… IM ABOUT TO THROW HANDS

[@hr1784]

Thank you for mentioning the genocide. Doing met gala to direct attention away from what’s happening on Rafah, and also being racist while doing it?! Is another level of disrespect.

[@You.2.]

The photographers are ignorant and disrespectful. Straykids deserves an apology.

[@Kilie_Morton._.OrangeCat_Roo]

No fr, not to mention stray kids are making them money💀😭😭like bestie bye, they get paid to be professional stalkers exc. they should shut their mouths and know their place

[@hyunjinsmarsmellow5076]

You got a new subscriber for skz

[@VeronicaCelaya-xe6fb]

Always amazed at the modeling skills and elegant conduct of Korea’s global superstars. And at the ignorance they’re exposed to. Good job, Stray KIds, Ms. Kim. Gorgeous.

[@ROXELL]

I’m so mad at the paparazzi, as if all the celebs there aren’t making the same faces.Also, I really feel bad for SKZ.That was a big achievement, they were excited and happy, and then that happened.Disrespectful and racist.I still don’t understand how racism keeps going.

[@maggiemccauslin1084]

Exactly! Literally most people don't smile for photos

[@ROXELL]

@@maggiemccauslin1084 especially for a Met Gala!

[@intuash]

The theme was Garden of Time aka archival, timeless pieces that are too fragile to be worn everyday. Iconic items of fashion basically. That's why a lot of the other people looked like they were from Hunger Games So SKZ were not on theme, but they didn't look bad either

[@nappyboi312]

The fact that you are standing up for them even tho kpop idols and their fans have been unapologetically racist to black people really shows your character! Thank you for not stooping to their level.

[@Kilie_Morton._.OrangeCat_Roo]

And like you said, their suits are literally like roses 😭😭white, red and black roses
