A slew of A-list stars risked facing the wrath of Anna Wintour as they broke a major Met Gala rule at this year’s star-studded soiree.

The Vogue editor-in-chief oversees the annual event at the famed Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and has a famously strict no-phone and no-social media policy.

But that didn’t stop the likes of Megan Thee Stallion and Halle Bailey from taking out iPhones to capture moments from fashion’s biggest night.

In a video posted to her Instagram, Megan acknowledged that Met Gala attendees are ‘not supposed to have our phones,’ before added: ‘But we are doin’ it.’

Earlier, big names including Kim Kardashian, Sydney Sweeney, Rihanna and Gigi Hadid flocked to New York City to attend the invite-only gala.

However, other A-list fixtures like Blake Lively, Taylor Swift, Lady Gaga, Jennifer Lopez, Ariana Grande and Katy Perry were noticeably absent from the red carpet.

While this year’s Met Gala theme, ‘Superfine: Tailoring Black Style’ presented an opportunity for ‘boundary-pushing’ looks, celebrities in drab black and gray outfits dominated the event.

Fans slammed the 2025 event as ‘boring’ as they watched a sea of dreary looks make their way up the museum’s iconic staircase during Vogue’s livestream.

Many even compared the soiree to a ‘funeral’ as they flocked to social media to voice their disappointment — with some even speculating that the Met Gala is ‘ᴅᴇᴀᴅ.’

Megan The Stallion broke Anna Wintor’s golden rule by posting images from inside the Met Gala all over her Instagram on Monday night  

Singer Halle Bailey also violated the no-phone policy by taking a selfie with Sydney Sweeney and White Lotus star Lisa

 Inside the event, Grammy-winning star Megan Thee Stallion, 30, filmed herself eating hors d’oeuvre inside the famed Metropolitan Museum of Art with fellow rapper Doechii and WNBA superstar Angel Reese.’H๏τtie Cam in thee MET GALA,’ captioned the 

Texas-born bombshell, who wore custom Michael Kors gown to the red carpet event.

After chowing down on lobster rolls and other decadent treats, Megan recorded herself walking around the venue with Tracee Ellis Ross, Doja Cat and Sha’Carri Richardson.

Next to appear alongside the WAP hitmaker in her Instagram video was Wicked star Cynthia Erivo, who blew kisses at Megan before walking out of frame.

Megan then captured herself with Angela Bᴀssett, who she called ‘beautiful’ while recording with her in selfie-mode.

She then captured Oscar-winner Lupita Nyong’o’s ‘stunning’ rhinestone eyebrows before moving across the room to catch up with her pal Serena Williams.

Before sticking out her tongue at the camera, Megan gloated: ‘I snuck my phone in.’

Other stars to make cameos in Megan’s forbidden footage Met Gala footage were Michael Kors, Ciara and Tessa Thompson.

Fans of the rapper flocked to the comment section of her IG post to warn her that she may get in trouble for her video.

Questlove also defied Wintour’s orders by sneaking his phone into the 2025 Met Gala. However, the six-time Grammy winner, 54, played it a bit more coy than Megan by capturing footage out of the sight of event staff 

‘Here before Anna make you delete this,’ wrote one commenter in reference to Wintour.

Others feared that Megan could get ‘uninvited’ from future Met Galas but thanked her for giving them an inside look at the event.

‘This is the content we want and neeeed! Thank you,’ wrote one fan who received over 200 ‘likes.’

However, the six-time Grammy winner, 54, played it a bit more coy than Megan by capturing footage out of the sight of event staff.

Questlove gathered a large group of his superstar pals — including Met Gala 2025 co-chairs Colman Domingo and Lewis Hamilton — to snap an epic group selfie in the bathroom.

Questlove, Domingo, Hamilton, Tracee Ellis Ross, Evan Ross, Cynthia Erivo, Severance star Tramell Tillman, Quinta Brunson, Sarah Snook and more posed for the pH๏τo.

Sabrina Carpenter and James Corden were also seen in the background of Questlove’s footage, which he posted to Instagram, as he and the group filed out of the restroom.

According to InStyle, Wintour’s no-phone rule does not prohibit guests from taking pH๏τos inside the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
