 Revisit MET Gala controversies: From Kim Kardashian damaging Marilyn Monroe’s dress to Doja Cat vaping 

While we cannot wait for the standouts this year, here`s a look at controversies that surrounded the MET in the past

The Oscars of fashion aka the MET Gala is all set to embrace the first Monday of May the iconic steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. The theme for this year is 'Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion' and an official dress code of 'The Garden of Time' promises to inspire creativity and innovation from the attendees, who will no doubt pull out all the stops to interpret the theme in their unique ways. While we cannot wait for the standouts this year, here's a look at controversies that surrounded the MET in the past.

Doja Cat Vaping

Singer Doja Cat broke an important rule at the Met Gala while attending the event in 2023. She was caught vaping on the red carpet at Vogue's prestigious ball despite Anna Wintour's strict rule against smoking. Representatives for the star told Daily Mail that there was no nicotine in the device and that it only contained a flavoured water vapour. When making her Met Gala debut, Doja literally turned into a cat in honour of Karl Lagerfeld's beloved pet Choupette. Her hooded silver sequined Oscar de la Renta gown featured a cat-ear silhouette and feathered train that was punctuated by cat eye, mouth, and nose makeup.
Kim Kardashian's Marilyn Monroe dress

Kim Kardashian's Marilyn Monroe moment at the MET Gala 2022 was the most talked about look. Some praised the Business Mogul for the way she carried the 60-year-old heritage while some were not happy and thought it was an insult to the legend. The reality TV star was also under fire for allegedly destroying the outfit Marilyn wore when she sang on President John F. Kennedy's birthday in 1962. However, a rep for Ripley's 'Believe It or Not!', who bought the dress for USD 4.8 million in 2016 denied the same. Amanda Joiner, Ripley's Vice President of Publishing and Licensing, who was with Kim and the dress the entire day of The Met, said, "From the bottom of the Met steps, where Kim got into the dress, to the top where it was returned, the dress was in the same condition it started in."

Rihanna as the Pope


The theme for 2018's Met Gala was 'Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination'. In consideration of it, headpieces were the highlights of the night. Pop queen Rihanna raised brows for her John Galliano for Maison Margiela outfit that resembled the Pope. Many found the ensemble to be offensive and disrespectful to religion. "It feels expensive; it's heavy. They beaded this by hand... It would be a sin not to wear it," Rihanna said in an interview on the red carpet

Lion make my friend in Amazon jungle

Live video                  Volunteering with a Purpose Dolph’s journey with animals began much like anyone’s affection for their pets. After the loss of his beloved dog, Dolph found a renewed mission in life: advocating for animal rights and raising awareness about endangered species. His commitment led him to Cheetah Experience, where lions, leopards, servals, and of course, cheetahs find refuge from the threats they face in the wild. The memorable encounter took place on a particularly sunny day, when all Dolph wanted was a brief escape from the relentless sun. He found solace under a tree, not knowing that he would soon share his makeshift bed with a curious cheetah named Eden. As he slept, Eden approached him, likely intrigued by his presence, and decided to settle next to him for a nap. The slight nudges from Eden eventually woke Dolph, who was stunned but delighted by the trust and affection shown by this majestic creature. Capt...

Not just the US but the whole world wanted...': US Ambassador Eric Garcetti on Indian

Not just the US but the whole world wanted...': US Ambassador Eric Garcetti on Indian purchase of Russian oil "We recognised that oil was a necessity for all economies and all people and it wasn't just India but that all countries should try to buy at a lesser price so that the Russian nation wouldn't be able to pour even more money into a war against the Ukrainian people,” Garcetti said in an interview. Read more . No, I would very positively emphasise again that this is something not just the US but that the world community said amid this aggressive, unprovoked war against another nation violating international borders that we recognised that oil was a necessity for all economies and all people and it wasn't just India but that all countries should try to buy at a lesser price so that the Russian nation wouldn't be able to pour even more money into a war against the Ukrainian people,” Garcetti said.   The US Ambassador also dismissed that his statement c...
