The dresses and the crazy headpieces are thrilling, yes, but when you’re following along at home, one of the best parts of the Met Gala is the tweets. Recall the Rihanna pizza dress memes of 2015, or the Kim Kardashian grandma’s couch debacle of 2013. It’s one of the only times Twitter is fun and not terrifying! In the spirit of laughing with a bunch of famous people who got dressed up just to go to the museum, here’s a roundup of the best tweets about the 2018 Met Gala.
