People are dragging celebs ‘supposed’ Met Gala outfits for 2020 and I am LIVING

The Met Gala was supposed to be yesterday evening, but it was cancelled for obvious reasons. As a result, our hearts are collectively bleeding over the loss of celebrity outfits to pick apart this morning while we sit in our trackies and PJ tops. Some stars have revealed the outfits they were supposed to wear, though, giving us a little peek into what could have been. The best of these was Rihanna’s supposed outfit.

These pictures were then reposted with basically every other celebrities names attached. It became Beyonce’s outfit. And Taylor Swift’s. And Harry Styles’.

It sparked a barrage of memes, claiming to be celebrities leaked outfits for this year’s Met Ball. From Britney’s signature smokey eye and, uh, hot pants – to Shawn Mendes consistently weak efforts and Lily Allen’s awfully iconic trainer/dress combos, here are some of the best.
