<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\nThe Met Gala charity event is one of the most talked about events of the year. Set up around a theme every year, the event invites some of the biggest names in the entertainment and fashion world to walk the red carpet stairs and show off their best fits for the night. While the guest list is long, there are some names who will probably never appear there. Here is a list of some of the big names in the industry who have either been banned, or have simply expressed that the Met Gala may not be their thing.<\/p>\n US President Donald Trump has officially been banned from the Met Gala for all events. Anna Wintour, while talking to James Corden on his show, confirmed that she would never be willing to invite Trump back at the event. Donald Trump has not been photographed at the event since 2012, however, he did attend many of the dinners before that.Tim Gunn has admitted that he has been banned from the Gala altogether. While talking to the Fashion Police in an old interview, he revealed that \u201cIt is very true. It is a crazy story, and as far as I\u2019m concerned, it\u2019s a very matter-of-fact story.\u201dLili Reinhart, who recently appeared in \u2018Forbidden Fruits\u2019 also expressed that there are high chances that she will not be invited to the event ever again. The star was last photographed on the famed red carpet stairs in 2022. However, she has expressed that after making a comment about Kim Kardashian, there are chances that she may never get an invite again. Earlier on, she had criticized Kardashian for losing weight to fit in Marilyn Monroe\u2019s dress. While talking to W Magazine, she cited that \u201cI don\u2019t think I\u2019ll be invited back…I said a certain something about a certain person in a certain dress.\u201dNicki Minaj is another celebrity on the list who may have possibly been banned from attending the Met Gala. Earlier this year, Naughty but Nice\u2019 reported that she may not be included in the list because of some of the political comments that she has made in the past. A statement from the report read, \u201cNicki\u2019s invitations didn\u2019t just slow down, they vanished. Hollywood stopped returning her calls. This isn\u2019t subtle anymore. She\u2019s been shut out.\u201d<\/p>\n Amy Schumer, famed comedian and actress is someone who does not wish to attend the Met Gala altogether. While talking to Howard Stern in 2016, she revealed that the glamped up event was just not her thing. At the time she had added that, \u201cIt\u2019s people doing an impression of having a conversation. I don\u2019t like the farce…We\u2019re dressed up like a bunch of fucking assholes. I don\u2019t like it. I have no interest in fashion…I don\u2019t care.\u201dPopular fashion designer Rachel Zoe has also shared that she has been banned from attending the Met Gala. While talking to The New York Times, she commented that \u201cAnna Wintour is one of my heroes, but they say that I\u2019m more influential. As great as it is, Vogue won\u2019t change a designer\u2019s business. But if an unknown brand is worn by a certain person in a tabloid, it will be the biggest designer within a week.\u201d It has been alleged that she was banned because of making this comment, however, she was present at the Met Gala in 2012, while the comment was made in 2007.\u2018Marty Supreme\u2019 actress Gwyneth Paltrow is another addition to the list who has expressed her disdain over the Met Gala and how possibly will not be attending the event as much. In 2013, while in conversation with US Weekly, she expressed that while on most occasions the event seems like the perfect thing, however, that is not always the case. She added, \u201cYou get there and it\u2019s so hot, and it\u2019s so crowded and everyone\u2019s pushing you. I think we\u2019re all a bit old to dress up punk.\u201dZayn Malik is also someone who would rather stay away from the Met Gala altogether. He last appeared at the event in 2016 with Gigi Hadid. The two had walked the red carpet stairs together at the time; however, it was also the last time for the singer. While talking to GQ in an old interview, he confirmed that he would not like to go back to the event at all, adding that \u201cI\u2019d rather be sitting at my house doing something productive than dressing up in really expensive clothes and being photographed on a red carpet.\u201dThe Met Gala will be held on Monday, May 4; however, the event will start at 3:30 AM on May 5 in India because of the time differences.<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source timesofindia.indiatimes.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Met Gala charity event is one of the most talked about events of the year.
