One wore blue heather graham5/22/2023 You’ll see a lot of opinion pieces saying Lagerfeld had a “complex” legacy. Not a percentage to sniff at, but considering Met Gala attendee and underpants billionaire Kim Kardashian makes more money eating her morning Weet-Bix than I do in a calendar year, the numbers don’t justify the cost of excusing Karl Lagerfeld’s dangerous past. Last year, the Met Gala contributed $US17.4 million to the museum approximately 7 per cent of their overall fundraising income for 2022 according to. But suggesting that celebrities attending an invitation-only event is somehow necessary to benefit society is some real bourgeoisie shit. It will surprise no one to know that I love a museum. Rather, it’s a signature event to benefit the Metropolitan Museum of Art and Culture in New York. The “Met” part of Met Gala is not, in fact, short for Met Her on a Monday by Craig David Gala. Now you may be asking, doesn’t this event raise crucial funding for a museum? In a sense, yes. But this year’s theme Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty exemplifies why the Met Gala is looking irrelevancy right in the eye. Previous Met Galas have given us amazing works of art including Cher’s sheer Rob Mackie original, Rihanna’s iconic Guo Pei yellow gown, and Karlie Kloss looking camp right in the eye. It’s Willy Wonka’s golden ticket for people immorally taking Ozempic. All guests are invited at the behest of Vogue editor in chief Anna Wintour.
