That Is All Meryl Streep GIF

I posted on AIBU last year so am doing the same:
https://www.mumsnet.com/talk/am_i_being_unreasonable/5329008-to-ask-if-youll-be-watching-the-met-gala-2025-tonight

Why they dont do it on a sunday night, ive no idea 🙄🙄

Or even a Saturday?!

Anyway - will anyone stay up to watch the red carpet? They dont film the actual gala which is weird but anyway

This year's dress code is: Fashion is Art and the theme is: Costume Art

Celebs are boycotting because Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez are going. I mean, what is the point, none of you are good people anyway 😫

Hoping to see Kim K, Rihanna, Beyonce, Law Roach (i dont think Zendaya is going)

Thoughts?

I’ll be interested in seeing the outfits but nothing keeps me from my bed these days. Also think the Bezos’ involvement has cheapened the whole thing. The pee bottles amused me though.

I'm watching people leaving a hotel, The Mark, as the vogue livestream starts at 11

I'm watching the snooker instead.

Venus is pretty much guaranteed to be classier than Serena who has always had a very odd idea of what looks good on her.

Agree with Venus looking better than serena

Disagree with watching snooker!! 😄

I won’t stay up, but I’ll very much enjoy looking at all the photos in the morning!

I'm not loving the white brick effect "red carpet". It just looks wrong.

Which YouTube channel are you watching?? x

Me me me! I'm watching! Currently watching the live stream of the celebs leaving their hotels. I need to find the feed of the actual red carpet if anyone could oblige.

I'll be watching in two mins, just watching towie (no idea why)

I am completely obsessed by Connor, his stylist James Yardly, his groomer Candice Birns. If you spend more than 5 mins on Threads you can see their global fandom, ( it’s crazy, to be taken in small doses), the anticipation for tonight has been building for weeks, Connor has worn 4 different outfits since he arrive in NYC on Sat (announcing Olivia Rodrigo on SNL).

Will quickly google now 👀

OMG! They will change your life. Connor and Hudson are the stars of Heated Rivalry on Sky/Now but globally on HBO and the show is massive. Since it finished airing in the US in December they have become fashion stars - Connor will be in YSL and Hudson probably in Balenciaga . Check out their IG for their golden globe / Oscar looks. Connor was on a recent Tiffany reel and had 15 million views even though he has 4 million insta followers. The fashion houses love them because of their impact.

Oh wow 👀👀

I too am only in it to see Connor Storrie and Hudson Williams, so at best I’ll stay up until their looks hit the timeline.
