Met Gala 2023 is clearly the line of beauty we were not ready for with celebrities dropping on the champagne carpet wearing some iconic pieces and, some completely missing the point. This year’s theme honours the late Karl Lagerfeld, so yes, there is a lot of scopes to visit the past while making sure the attires are futuristic. Some celebrities such as Nicole Kidman and co-chair for the event, Billie Eilish seem to have really outdone themselves with some Jared Leto disappointment meowing at us.
However, fans cannot help but notice the absence of some very important guests in this year’s gala, who have always been the epitome of fashion. With baby number 04, MET veteran Blake Lively had already made the audience all over the world aware about she will be missing out on this year’s fundraising ball. Additionally, Taylor Swift, we knew, would also not be a part of the show with her Eras Tour in full swing.
Nonetheless, there are some names that are not on the guest list this year and that is surely killing us all. From Zendaya and Jimin, there is a list of celebrities that people have been looking forward to seeing on this year’s carpet who have not turned up. This is a butterfly effect on the whole Met Gala fandom with fans going into a frenzy and unleashing some of the most hilarious memes of all time.

One of the fans on Twitter wrote, “I’m still super sad that we aren’t getting Blake Lively at the Met Gala this year, I feel like we can always count on her to pull something amazing out of the bag.” Another tweet read: “Ok where is my boy Timmy?? Also Zendaya? Tom Holland? The 90s models? Lily Rose Depp???? The people that I actually want to see????”. Let us have a look at more such reactions and memes below.
