The 2025 Met Gala has come and gone, but the reactions and memes that flooded our social timelines? Yeah, those are forever.
The one thing you don’t get on Vogue and E!’s livestreams during the fashion event is the unfiltered, deliciously unhinged reactions to celebs’ outfits throughout the night, brought to us by fellow pop culture lovers and stans. Or maybe it’s just your auntie scrolling through Instagram with some things to say about so-and-so’s look for the evening.
