The "Stars Snub Bezos-backed Met Gala" headlines remind me of Princess Ivanka thinking she'd become the event's Queen
It was her dream during Trump's first term. She'd return to private life as the TOAST OF NY'S UPPER-ELITE SOCIETY, the QUEEN of the MET GALA.Until NY told her and Jared to fuck off, and they were forced to console themselves with a $24 million mansion in Florida.
Dreams die hard, especially for princesses.
Emmy-winning actor Zendaya will not attend the 2026 Met Gala, the first to be sponsored by Trump-friendly billionaire Jeff Bezos and his wife Lauren Sánchez, according to a report in Elle. And she’s not the only A-lister to decline.
The news about Zendaya skipping the event comes amid rumors of a feud with her MAGA-coded Euphoria co-star Sydney Sweeney. In addition, The Daily Mail on Wednesday reported that Oscar winner Meryl Streep, fresh off the premiere of The Devil Wears Prada 2, turned down a co-chair invitation due to the Bezos’ involvement.
The Daily Beast has reached out to representatives for Streep and Zendaya for comment.
