Met Gala 2023: Controversy, Fashion, and Lagerfeld's Legacy.
Originally Published 2 years ago — by Deadline
Jameela Jamil criticized the Met Gala for honoring Karl Lagerfeld, calling out the attendees for showcasing "selective cancel culture" by celebrating a man who was publicly cruel to women, fat people, immigrants, and sexual assault survivors. She expressed her discontent over the theme last year and explained that this is not about cancel culture or Karl, but about showing the double standards within liberal politics. Jamil warned that if we carry on like this, we may lose the next election.
