While the 2025 Met Gala red carpet delivers many epic moments, once it wraps, viewers don’t get to virtually accompany their favorite fashionistas inside the Met Museum.
However, this year, attendees such as Laura Harrier, Megan Thee Stallion, Kim Kardashian and Jaden Smith were doing the Lord’s work and took us inside, despite the high-end event’s strict no phone policy. As a result, we got to see what guests were snacking on, who they sat with, the kind of music they were listening to and a ton of gorgeous selfies.
Below, see all the celebrities who managed to sneak their devices into the Met Gala (and the amazing behind-the-scenes peeks they delivered to us).

Never one to go with the status quo, Megan Thee Stallion was one of the first stars to give a glimpse of what her table looked like. Sitting with Angel Reese and Doechii, the “Hiss” rapper took a video of the trio trying some appetizers, which included “cornbread and caviar,” “white truffle lobster roll” and “vegan lox.”
“We’re not supposed to have our phones, but we’re doing it [anyway].” she coyly admitted later.
