The "Stars Snub Bezos-backed Met Gala" headlines remind me of Princess Ivanka thinking she'd become the event's Queen [View all]
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.
