The Met Gala is always held on the first Monday of May, and this year it falls on May 5. While netizens are eagerly waiting for the invited celebrities to make their way down the red carpet, there are a few big names in the industry who are officially and unofficially banned from the Met Gala.

The Met Gala 2025 is shaping up to be an unforgettable night, as anticipation builds for this year’s star-studded event, centred around the highly anticipated exhibition Superfine: Tailoring Black Style.

Some celebrities have found themselves banned from the Met Gala due to their behaviour, meaning they’re unlikely to make an appearance at the iconic event anytime soon.
