Met Gala 2025 live updates: Pro-Palestinian protesters attempt to derail red carpet

A group of Pro-Palestininan protestors stood just outside the Met Gala red carpet as the ball kicked off.

They held up signs and passionately screamed while A-listers arrived, causing quite the commotion.

They were once fashion’s most powerful pair – Anna, Vogue’s icy and immovable editor-in-chief, and André, the larger-than-life editor with a taste for revolutionary fashion.

But despite their friendship, the duo eventually became embroiled in a bitter dispute with one another.

The coveted event has officially begun with Zuri and Rachel being the first to arrive.

Zuri opted for a black striped gown that resembled a suit, while Rachel donned a strapless white number.

Taylor’s fans are convinced that she’ll finally return to the Met Gala red carpet for tonight’s event – and there’s an abundance of theories as to why

While each year most of the stars stun in dazzling dresses and glamorous get-ups, sometimes a few celebrities have totally missed the mark with their looks, arriving in bizarre and over-the-top ensembles that left people all across the web scratching their heads.

Ahead of this year’s event, DailyMail.com has rounded up the most atrocious, cringe-worthy looks from past Met Galas.
