Who is on the visitor checklist?
Obviously, the entire cochairs and host committee members are anticipated to attend, and their companions will seemingly obtain invitations as effectively (we knew one thing was up with Bennifer when Ben Affleck didn’t present the 12 months J. Lo cochaired). Since A$AP Rocky is with Rihanna, and he or she’s a Met Gala fave, it’ll be stunning (and disappointing!) if she’s not there!
Another Met Gala fave who’ll for positive be attending? Zendaya. And as a result of the actor all the time understands the task with regards to the theme and costume code, we’re particularly excited to see what she wears on the crimson carpet.
As for the remainder of the visitor checklist, how enjoyable wouldn’t it be if certainly one of these 31 celebrities who’ve by no means attended the Met Gala made their debut?
