The Met Gala is an annual fundraising event that benefits the New York City Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute. Each year, the Met Gala has a theme, and this year, the theme was "Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination". Celebrities from fashion, films, artists, and more dress their absolute best for this event and here's everything you need to know about this year's Met Gala.
Chadwick Boseman Is The King
The famous Black Panther himself made a remarkable appearance at this year's Met Gala. From the gold shoes, to the robe, this outfit was stellar.
Rihanna Dressed As The Pope
Are any of us really shocked? She took this theme to a whole new level and killed it.
Shawn Mendes and Hailey Baldwin
This was the first Met Gala that Shawn Mendes has ever been to. He was such a sweetheart to his date, Hailey Baldwin, by helping with her long gown. He even helped her up the stairs. How sweet. Chivalry is still alive!
Blake Lively Spotted At The Met
Blake Lively never fails to look stunning, even pregnant. This amazing gown was so epic that she had to come on a party bus! Oh, Blake!
Katy Perry Can Fly??
This American Idol judge grew wings and took flight on the red carpet. Those 6-foot wings were LIT and she looked like an angel!
Ariana Grande = Sistine Chapel
Ariana Grande made an appearance and her dress was very interesting. It was a representation of the paintings in the Sistine Chapel. I think Michaelangelo would be proud, Ariana!
Riverdale On The Red Carpet
The Riverdale stars, Cole Sprouse and Lili Reinhart, also made an appearance at the event. This cute couple looked like they were having so much fun at the red carpet and I don't think we could ever get enough of them!
Where's Kanye?
Kim Kardashian was spotted on the red carpet. Surprisingly, her husband, Kayne West, was not at the event. People have been shocked by this because normally the couple is always together.
Cardi B And Her Baby
Cardi B showed off her baby bump at the Met. She also confirmed that she will be expecting a girl. However, she did not want people too close to her because of her pregnancy.
This year's Met Gala was pretty elaborate. The celebrities took their outfits to a whole new level and I love how each of them added their own little twist to them. Excited to see what next year's event looks like!
