A dog had the best reaction to Jared Leto’s barking Met Gala cat costume
In case you missed it, the big bash of the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute – the 2023 Met Gala – happened a couple of days ago. The annual charity ball had all of the usual glamour and ostentation, with many big stars turning up, joining in and splashing out.

The theme was Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty, causing quite a backlash because of the late designer’s problematic behaviour and attitude.
we could have had a vivienne westwood met gala theme if we were sticking with designers who have passed but instead we were stuck with karl lagerfeld someone who vocally denounced the me too movement. SOMEBODY SEDATE ME !!!!!!!!! pic.twitter.com/JdfZ1vYyqm

Karl Lagerfeld was a fatphobic, sexist and racist butthole that hated pink. Quannah Chasinghorse attending the Met in pink, in a gown and style that Karl Lagerfeld would have hated, and in all her Indigenous glory is absolutely the most beautiful way to "honor" an unhonorable man https://t.co/wLuH41CY3C

The CO CHAIR wearing Schiaparelli to the Met Gala honoring Karl Lagerfeld’s racist ass is so subversive I love her. Lagerfeld was the creative director of Chanel for years. Coco Chanel famously despised Elsa Schiaparelli https://t.co/wsgoYfMl0u

Still – many of the guests tried to meet the brief, including Doja Cat, who turned up in costume as Lagerfeld’s cat, Choupette.

Lil Nas X had the same idea, but with more jewels and less actual clothing.

There was a third Choupette – Jared Leto – who was a bit more literal.

Here’s what people thought of that.
I genuinely thought the cat costume was great but Jared Leto being inside is like finding your Cadbury’s Cream Egg has mayonnaise in it. pic.twitter.com/ES3k9x4EJw

The dog’s reaction is basically how I feel about the Met Gala generally. https://t.co/gPG59a5B8w
