From NYTimes:

As anticipation grew and fans cheered outside the Metropolitan Museum of Art for the beginning of the Met Gala’s red carpet, an elderly woman wearing a purple visor named Margo Grant pushed her walker past a set of metal police barricades and began heading up Madison Avenue.

“It’s always a mess today,” Ms. Grant huffed. “Always too many people. I’m just trying to get home. I don’t really care about seeing any of these celebrities anyways.”

Not even one?

“Well, I’d like to see Lady Gaga,” she ceded. “Just because she’s just so great.”

Would Margo lie?

No, she's an old lady - Gaga's remaining demographic

Ariana holding up really well for an album carried by exactly one single at the moment

The fact that eternal sunshine has couple of songs with great potential after wcbf, they have to play their cards right

I'm convinced that at this point she's jeopardizing her own music career's success and her relationship with her fans whether knowingly or not.

She could have everything again if she wanted to - the acclaim, the anticipation, the talent are all there. But maybe she's too afraid to rule the world and all the Scheiße it came with last time.

Spoiler

Sadly it can be part of her trauma or depression. Some people just have an inner saboteur or a defeatist subconscious. Her biggest enemy is her indeed.

 

That or Interscope really just doesn't think it's time yet since they have 2 other big artists about to release.

Thoughts? @Adarsh

John Galliano never misses. Absolutely gorgeous.

Also, the hat on Zendaya’s second look is literally the same one that Gaga wore in the TCB interlude. This is why we need Nicola to be back as her permanent stylist. He always gets it.

The MET Gala has turned into one of the most boring “must see events” of the year

Hardly anyone even tries for a theme, it really has started to reek of “let’s get a bunch of celebrities in one place so everyone can talk about how hot they are”  

Idk maybe it’s just my age showing but I feel like this event always is overhyped and always under delivers. 
 

edit: Lea Michelle is the perfect example, people on my tv are literally being like “this is a huge moment omg she is stunning omg the detail” because she slapped some flowers on a dress….idk it’s just so lazy lol 

The way none of the big pop ladies of past MET Galas didn’t go…no Gaga, Rihanna, Beyoncé, Taylor, Billie, Katy etc.

 even they know this show is NOT WORTH IT (dying at Doja Cat literally caring so f-ing little she wore a white t shirt and called it “inspired” )

Something weird is going on. Look at the Dance Albums chart:

4. The Fame (-3) (2 debuts above)
11. The Fame Monster (re-entry)
15. Born this Way (-5)

Are they counting TF and TFM as separate now or...? That re-entry is odd

ouuu another one in the casket

Pop emergency! We can't even claim her biggest era has staying power.

Hopefully just a glitch, but knowing our luck...

I know they split TF and TFM for RIAA certifications, I wonder if BB finally followed suit? Not only did it stop us from getting a diamond album, now we may never see TF chart at all if it gets split. Will they do the same to TD:CC?
