Stars Came Out For The 2014 Met Gala
While you may have been having a ball yesterday with your Cinco de Mayo festivities, stars lined the red carpet in NYC for the 2014 Met Gala. “Gossip Girl” alumnae Blake Lively and Leighton Meester, Oscar award winner Lupita Nyong’o and Victoria Beckham were just some of the stars who glammed up the red carpet. I applaud the certain stars who went the unconventional route (Michelle Williams dared to go short while Brie Larson wore sequin pants). Peep all the photos here.

What’s a red carpet without Jay Z and Beyonce? Other music artists who attended the Met Ball were Janelle Monae, Rita Ora (who popped into our studios just a couple of hours before), Selena Gomez and Taylor Swift, who, thanks to her cat, almost wore a torn custom-made Oscar de la Renta dress!
