It appears there might still be some confusion around Kylie Jenner’s situation with the 2024 Met Gala. To clarify, reports or claims that Kylie

Jenner paid $100,000 to get an invitation to the Met Gala are inaccurate, especially as she was not invited to this year’s event.

The process for securing an invitation to the Met Gala does not involve individuals directly paying to attend. Instead, these invitations are typically extended to celebrities, industry leaders, and artists at the discretion of the event’s organizers, including the host committee and

 

Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour. While tickets to the event are indeed expensive and serve as a significant source of fundraising for the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute, they are not sold in a way that allows attendees to buy their way in.

If Kylie Jenner was not invited to the 2024 Met Gala, it would have nothing to do with her willingness or ability to pay but rather decisions made by the event’s organizers, possibly based on the event theme, the desired mix of guests, or other strategic considerations.

It’s also important to note that the guest list for the Met Gala is carefully curated each year to align with the event’s theme and fundraising goals, and not being invited one year does not preclude public figures from being invited in other years.
