Unfortunately , this fib does n’t have a happy ending .
TheMet Galais all about frivolous celebrity excess and glamour!
Celebrities wear crazy expensive pieces of couture, and we’re left sitting on our couches eating Fritos judging the hell out of them thinking we’reJoan RiversonFashion Police.
This year, a surprise guest crashed the party, and that surprise guest was a cockroach.
Yes, a cockroach.

The Cut even called them “the real star of the Met Gala.”

Unfortunately, all good things come to an end, and the roach was killed.
