Summary

The Met Gala is back and as ever, it delivered equal parts spectacle and controversy. This year’s celebration of haute couture sparked plenty of debate, from headline-grabbing outfits to eyebrow-raising celebrity moments. Some looks intrigued, others irritated but all of them got people talking. Beyond the fashion, the event also ignited a wider cultural clash. With Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez hosting, criticism and calls for boycotts followed, exposing tensions around wealth, celebrity, and influence in today’s cultural landscape. And that’s not all. This week also saw a dramatic twist in one of the biggest showbiz stories of the year. Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni settled in their It Ends With Us lawsuit, adding even more fuel to the conversation. What does it all say about celebrity culture right now? Piers Morgan is joined by a panel of comedian and commentator, James Barr, showbiz correspondent Kjersti Flaa, former Republican congressman George Santos and conservative commentator Emily Austin. Then Piers speaks to actor Adam Mondschein, who co-starred with Lively and Baldoni in It Ends With Us, to discuss his thoughts on the case. Learn more about your ad choices.
