Fans were disappointed when Taylor Swift was a no-show at this year’s Met Gala, the fashion event of the year. The last time Swift graced the Met Gala was all the way back in 2016, when she was co-chairing the event with a ‘Manus x Machina’ theme. Swift, who is currently on her Eras Tour, is gearing up for her next performance in Paris on May 9. Speculation about her attendance was sparked once again when Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour mentioned that she hoped Swift would come and enjoy the exhibit. Fans expressed their sadness on Twitter, with one fan declaring, ‘The Met Gala won’t be the same without Taylor Swift.’
Taylor Swift disappointed fans by not attending this year’s Met Gala, despite Anna Wintour’s request for her presence. Many took to social media to express their disappointment, with some speculating that Swift’s absence could be related to her feud with Kim Kardashian. The absence of other big names like Rihanna, Beyonce, and Lady Gaga also left fans feeling disheartened. One Twitter user even suggested that the Met Gala is now “over” without these iconic stars in attendance. Despite the speculation, Anna Wintour had reignited hopes that Swift might make an appearance at this year’s event.
Supporters voiced their letdown on social media, with a user commenting, ‘I am done with the met gala unless Taylor Swift makes an appearance.’
During a recent interview, Jenna Bush Hager mentioned that she had a chat with Vogue’s global editorial director and couldn’t resist asking about Taylor’s appearance at the Met Gala. She shared the amusing story with her Today show colleagues, revealing that her daughter Mila was curious about Taylor attending the event. Jenna recounted how she posed the question and received a playful response from Anna, who seemed to suggest that there was a possibility. This led to speculation among Jenna’s cohosts, who seemed intrigued by the interaction. The playful banter continued, with Hoda complimenting Jenna’s accent and Sheinelle expressing excitement about the upcoming event she would be attending.
After rumors were sparked by Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour’s comment to Jenna Hager, saying “I hope she comes and enjoys the exhibit,” fans began buzzing with anticipation about Taylor Swift potentially attending the event.
The popular singer, known for her chart-topping song Shake It Off, has decided to skip the prestigious fashion event due to her busy tour schedule. She recently dropped her latest album, The Tortured Poets Department, adding to her already hectic agenda.
Swift was seen at the Met Gala in 2013, but recent reports revealed that she and her boyfriend, football player Travis Kelce, would not be attending this year’s event. The singer, who just dropped her latest album, “The Tortured Poets Department,” is said to be missing the gala due to her busy tour schedule. Instead of gracing the red carpet, Taylor will be getting ready for her upcoming Eras Tour performance at the Paris La Défense Arena on May 9. TMZ also mentioned in April that Taylor and Travis, both 34 years old, would be absent from the gala, although they have not given any public statements about their decision.
