The 2025 Met Gala has come and gone, but the reactions and memes that flooded our social timelines? Yeah, those are forever.
The one thing you don’t get on Vogue and E!’s live streams during the fashion event is the unfiltered, deliciously unhinged reactions to celebs’ outfits throughout the night, brought to us by fellow pop culture lovers and stans. Or maybe it’s just your auntie scrolling through Instagram with some things to say about so-and-so’s look for the evening. Either way, we are just as seated for the social media chaos that ensued as we were for the whole red carpet, which is why we’ve rounded up the 25 best reactions to the 2025 Met Gala.
Clocking in for our shift as the Fashion Police like…

Truly living for every moment
This is unironically the BEST met in years. Rihanna pregnant, almost everyone following and eating up the theme, selfies are back, no Kardashian’s doing anything weird. This is proof diversity is always a good thing💕 #MetGala2025 pic.twitter.com/fVRnKaMQ2B
