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've no idea what it is. I'm assuming it's some American celebrity shite? So no, I won't be staying up

If you saw the film Ocean’s Eight, it’s the big NY fashion party where Sandra Bullock, Cate Blanchett, Helena Bonham Carter, Sarah Paulson, Mindy Kaling and co steal a freakishly expensive diamond necklace from Anne Hathaway.

I won't be as I need an early night and am not into fashion but since I've got into a podcast about SATC where the hosts are very interested in fashion, I am more interested than I would have been. I just like listening to them 😀 so I'll definitely look at the pics and look forward to their commentary!

I am amused at all these people falling over themselves to open the thread and having the urge to comment that they have absolutely no idea what this is about!

Why?

Surely it's just part of the conversation?

It would be different if they were all asking "What is it?" because they're too lazy to Google, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

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.

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.

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).
