HOLD ON TIGHT- LADY GAGA HAS BIG PLANS FOR THE MET GALA

Being single never stopped Lady Gaga from having a good time – in fact, it brings out her eccentricity. This is the outfit she wore to the dinner BEFORE the Met Gala Monday night. Apparently she wants everybody to get worked up, imagining what she’ll wear to the fashion extravaganza where there’s an overload of stylish competition. Notice her tiny handbag – surely she has a handsome security guard carrying her essentials…

HOW MUCH FASHION PAYOLA ARE ACTRESSES GETTING TO WEAR GOWNS AT THE MET GALA?

The Met Gala is turning out to be a bigger fashion event that the Cannes Film Festival. We can’t even IMAGINE how much money is changing hands as major fashion houses, jewelry designers etc. BRIBE celebrities to wear their creations! Blake Lively is in big demand because she’s model height (5’10”) and makes the clothes look spectacular. Her Gala gown was gorgeous but obscenely expensive (it took over 600 hours to make!) Recently designers have ALSO been dressing celebrities for the after-parties! (Blake, above in her pricey after-party outfit) No WONDER so many celebrities wouldn’t think of missing the Met Gala – they’d be missing a huge pay check!

WORST AND BEST DRESSED AT THE MET GALA

WORST: Katy Perry should FIRE her stylist or whatever designer put her in this get-up. Not only is it sadly reminiscent of a tacky Victoria’s Secret angel costume, but it’s downright unflattering to the max. And we’re betting Katy took up more room than any other person at the party. SOMEBODY had to be Worst Dressed and Katy was winner by a mile.

BEST: There were lots of creative and glamorous gowns (except Rihanna – ditch that Pope hat!) but we fell in love with the simplicity and power of Zendaya’s Joan of Arc look. It almost looks like it’s made of metal and radiates with female power – but not hyper-sexuality. The 21 year old singer/actress (and former Disney star) just oozes female superiority.

KATY PERRY MASH-UP AT THE MET GALA: ALMOST THE WORST DRESSED

Martin Margiela just might be in a twist over Katy Perry’s Maison Margiela dress at the Met Gala, which was custom designed by John Galliano, who took his place. Katy’s gown was the antithesis of Margiela’s fashion theory of shocking simplicity with avant-garde shapes. Galliano’s red dress is gaudy and fussy and loaded with ruffles and straps – resulting in a pleasantly colored shapeless mass. When it comes to designing, Galliano doesn’t make a lot of mistakes, but this is one of them…

MADONNA AT THE MET: ANOTHER REASON FOR ROCCO TO STAY IN THE UK

After four months apart, Madonna and her runaway son Rocco, 15, just had a nice reunion in London at the end of April. Rocco is still living with his father Guy Ritchie, but he spent time with Madonna at her London home and he took her to his favorite skate park. Madonna posted a cute photo of them together looking chummy. Then she flew home and dressed in this strangely inappropriate outfit for the Met Ball. Do you suppose it might embarrass her kids? (They will be teased!) She’s a shoo-in for the Worst Dressed list.

KATY PERRY DOES AN AMAZING LADY GAGA IMITATION AT THE MET GALA

Not only is Katy Perry wearing something Lady Gaga would love, but she’s got her FACE! You don’t usually see Katy in a deliberately unflattering outfit like Gaga, but she topped her with this one. The beehive hair is startling, but to be honest, Amy Winehouse did it better. Her ensemble DOES reflect the theme of the party: Fashion in the age of Technology – but it’s easy to see why she didn’t bring a boyfriend.

GEORGE AND AMAL CLOONEY: BEST DRESSED AT MET GALA

If there were an award for Best Looking Couple at the Met Gala tonight, the winners would have to be Amal Alamuddin and George Clooney. Since he married Amal, George has kicked it up a notch when it comes to dressing up. His tuxedo tailcoat is super elegant and compliments her amazing red gown. Kanye and Kim are going to be green with envy…

LIKE JASON STATHAM, BRAD AND ANGELINA HAVE BETTER THINGS TO DO THAN ATTEND THE MET GALA

There’s something about Brad Pitt – he looks better than he has in AGES. Brad and Angelina both wore black to a costume display in London for Angelina’s movie “Maleficent.” They were missing from the Met Gala this year and we hear it’s because Angelina thinks the whole event is silly and a waste of time and money. Privately she considers it “a fashion contest” and celebrities prance around in extravagantly expensive clothing hoping to be photographed – while people around the world are starving. Angelina prefers to be more sensible.

JASON STATHAM HAS BETTER THINGS TO DO THAN GO TO THE MET GALA

Some macho guys just don’t feel comfortable at lavish fashion events and we’re guessing that Jason Statham is one of them. His girlfriend of four years, model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley‘s escort for the fancy evening was the Creative Director of the design house Balmain, Olivier Rousteing. Big time designers love to attend these events with beautiful models wearing their clothes. Her friends find it odd that Jason, who’s twenty years older than Rosie and never been married, has yet to propose to the model.

SARAH SILVERMAN AS YOU’VE NEVER SEEN HER BEFORE

Comedian Sarah Silverman has never looked more glamorous than she does at the Met Gala, and it’s her first time on the red carpet with “Masters of Sex” star Michael Sheen. Although Michael is height challenged like Tom Cruise, he attracts hot Hollywood women like Rachel McAdams and Kate Beckinsale. His exes say he has an incredible sense of humor and always leaves them laughing, so being with Sarah makes a lot of sense.
