W-w-w-wait. You can purchase tickets to the Met Gala [1] this year? That's news to us. For a whopping $35,000, you'll be supporting the institute and also getting the opportunity to see the 2019 star-studded committee [2] stroll in. For the "Camp: Notes on Fashion"-themed event [3] — curated by Andrew Bolton — Bradley Cooper [4], Blake Lively [5], Ryan Reynolds [6], Lupita Nyong'o, Alex Rodriguez, and Jennifer Lopez [7] are definite confirmations, and there's even a rumour that Cher will show up to sit at one of the tables, which apparently cost $200,000-$300,000. The official hosts include Lady Gaga [8], Harry Styles, Serena Williams, and Gucci's Creative Director Alessandro Michele — there's really no better group to rally behind the iconic, over-the-top style moments that will be on display. Ahead, get a sneak peek at the guest list so far, provided by Anna Wintour herself to The Hollywood Reporter.
