Doja Cat MEOWS through entire red carpet chat at Met Gala

Doja Cat left an interviewer baffled as she meowed through an entire red carpet chat at the Met Gala 2023 Monday night at the Metropolitan Museum in New York City.

The 27-year-old rapper dressed as the late Chanel icon Karl Lagerfeld’s famous spoiled feline Choupette as she posed up a storm in a shimmering white dress complete with cat ears and heavy facial prostheses.

While walking the red carpet, she was stopped by a journalist who asked her a series of questions, but she answered with nothing but meows.

The Vogue interviewer took in her incredible dress and asked – “so who made it?” to which she replied with a meow.

The interviewer then looked stunned and simply said “wow” while looking awkwardly around.

Then she tried to do the interview right and said, “Okay then, something else. So what was your inspiration for tonight – be honest with me and give me some details.’

Once again, Doja Cat simply replied with a series of longer meows as the journalist watched helplessly, even covering her mouth with her hand in shock.

She then continued her questions, asking, “So what are you excited to see?” Is it your first Met?’

And as she continued with her theme, Doja Cat just meowed back at her.

Doja Cat transformed into a feline with striking facial prosthetics as she took an unrecognizable spin on the red carpet during the event.

She dressed up as Choupette as she posed for a storm in a shimmering white dress complete with cat ears — leading the stars who dressed as the cat for the event.

Doja, who is no stranger to dazzling red carpet looks, wore heavy facial prosthetics that gave her a cat-like nose, mouth and lifted upper eyes when she arrived.

The star’s dress featured adorable cat ears and a shimmering open back, with the dress flowing into a dramatic ruffled train.

The star sported feline moves of liner and a collection of dazzling jewelry.

Jared Leto donned a full hair suit in Choupette’s likeness for the carpet, while Lil Nas X stripped naked and covered in silver paint and whiskers for his turn on the red carpet.

The biggest night in fashion took place on Monday night with a slew of the industry’s most notable stars walking the red carpet to show off their glamorous and daring looks.

The 2023 Met Gala returned to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, where everyone from Kim Kardashian to Paris Hilton attended the fundraising event.

Since 1948, stars have ascended the majestic staircase to a very exclusive party where no selfies are allowed.

Traditionally, the event took place on the first Monday in May and the annual extravaganza kicked off May 1 at 6:30 PM EST.

The theme of the ball was Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty. The late German designer was the creative director of Chanel for a long time. He passed away at the age of 85 in 2019.

His beloved cat, Choupette, was even invited to the festivities.

The decision to honor Karl sparked controversy due to the many offensive comments he’s made over the years, from criticizing the #MeToo movement to opposing same-sex marriage.

“I’m against it for a very simple reason: in the ’60s they all said we were entitled to the difference. And now they suddenly want a civilian life,” he said Shame of same-sex marriage.

‘It’s hard to imagine – one of the daddies at work and the other at home with the baby. What would that be like for the baby? Don’t know. I see more lesbians married with babies than boys married with babies. And I also believe more in the relationship between mother and child than in that between father and child.’

Although he eventually expressed his support for same-sex marriage at his Chanel haute couture show in the spring of 2013, he still said he was “less enthusiastic” about adopting same-sex children, according to the AP.

Along with Vogue Editor-in-Chief Anna Wintour, who directs and hosts the annual event, the 2023 MET Gala was co-hosted by Penelope Cruz, Dua Lipa, Michaela Coel and also Roger Federer.

While the show may be known for its glitzy and over-the-top red carpet — with details about what goes on inside that often remain mysterious — at its heart, it’s a fundraising event for the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute.

Last year, the 2022 MET gala alone raised a total of $17.4 million, reportedly Billboard.

This year, the entry fee was increased from $30,000 to $50,000, according to Page six. But even if you have the money, that doesn’t guarantee entry to the party.

Every guest must be invited and there is a waiting list for the coveted golden ticket.

And status matters, according to The New York Timesmeaning the hottest stars are a shoo-in for an invite.

Heiress Paris was one of the biggest names to attend the event, in what marked her first-ever Met Gala.

Things didn’t go smoothly, however, as her grand Met Gala entrance was blocked by angry climate change protesters lined up in front of her vehicle.

But the minor disruption didn’t stop the billionaire from showing up on the red carpet, admiring a bare-shoulder leather dress.

The best-dressed of the night included Met veteran Kim, who stunned in an incredible pearl dress, seemingly accidentally revisiting her 2007 Playboy look.

Kim wore custom Schiaparelli covered in 50,000 pearls that were hand strung and draped on her body.

The mother-of-four revealed she wanted pearls because “what’s more Karl” than “iconic Chanel pearls,” she said during her interview on Vogue.com’s livestream.

Pregnant Rihanna, Gisele and Emily Ratajkowski also honored Karl in their eye-catching dresses as they took their A-game to the red carpet.

Meanwhile, Blake Lively, a frequent visitor, announced she would not be attending the party this year. “I’ll look,” she said, according People.

As for Wintour’s role in the bash, Vogue’s editor-in-chief hosts the party and oversees the guest list and even the menu.

She has been the president of the Met Gala since 1994 and continues to stand guard at every event.
