About this episode
This episode explores the strict rules and secrets of the Met Gala, an exclusive annual fundraising event.
The Met Gala is an annual fundraiser that raises millions of dollars for the museum, with tickets costing around $80,000 individually or $600,000 for a corporate table, all personally approved by Anna Wintour. The event features strict rules including no mobile phones, no plus ones, and assigned seating where guests are deliberately placed with strangers. Inside the gala, attendees enjoy cocktails, tour the costume museum, and participate in a formal dinner with speeches and performances, while a standout fashion moment can catapult a celebrity's career, as demonstrated by Tyler's sand dress in 2024 which resulted in $28 million in earnings and multiple brand deals.
