It’s that time of the year again when the stars align, the fashionistas emerge, and the Met Gala takes centre stage.

THE MET GALA EVENT

E! is set to dazzle viewers with an exclusive glimpse into the glitz and glamour of the Garden of Time-themed ball, slated for 6 May, in New York City, according to the Los Angeles Times.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art’s forthcoming exhibition, Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion, sets the stage for this year’s gala. Co-chairs Bad Bunny, Zendaya, Jennifer Lopez, and Chris Hemsworth are all leading the charge.

Tune in to Live From E!: 2024 Met Gala on E! (DStv 124) from 17:00 (CAT) as the excitement unfolds.

THE MET GALA’S PANEL

Viewers will witness the stars’ grand entrances from The Mark Hotel and The Pierre Hotel, followed by exclusive interviews with TV host Ross Mathews. All interviews will take place on the iconic Met steps.

The star-studded panel includes reporter Zuri Hall, model Lily Aldridge, and fashion maven Zanna Roberts Rossi. Designers Christian Cowan and Christian Siriano will also offer their fashion insights.

Adding to the allure, Kim Kardashian’s hairstylist Chris Appleton will spill beauty secrets in a special guest interview, as reported by Vogue.

THE MET GALA GUEST LIST

While the guest list remains under wraps, expect to catch glimpses of perennial attendees such as Kim Kardashian, Kendall Jenner, Beyoncé, Harry Styles, Rihanna, Cardi B, Billie Eilish, and Zoë Kravitz.

Rihanna, known for her show-stopping Met Gala ensembles, teased a departure from her usual flamboyance, according to the New York Times.

“I’m coming in as an extra this year,” she quipped to E! News. She hinted at a more subdued look. “I know you think I’m lying—it’s chill.”

RIHANNA’S ‘LOW-KEY’ LOOK

Despite the anticipation surrounding her ensemble, Rihanna remains unfazed. She is promising a low-key appearance at the Garden of Time Met Gala soirée.

Live From E! is helmed by Live Digital Entertainment, with executive producers Eddie Delbridge, Madison Sinclair, and Shaun Smith at the helm.

Beyond its extravagant themes and A-list attendees, the Gala serves as a spectacle of creativity and innovation. It’s a place where designers push the boundaries of sartorial expression and stars transform into living works of art.

THE FASHION ELITE

From the anticipation surrounding red carpet arrivals to the buzz of speculation over who will make a splash with their ensemble, every moment is charged with electric energy.

Moreover, the Gala provides a rare glimpse into the inner sanctum of the fashion elite. It offers viewers a front-row seat to witness the intersection of celebrity and style at its most dazzling.
