The 2026 Met Gala Organizing Committee has just been announced with a powerful quartet including Beyonce, Venus Williams, Nicole Kidman and Anna Wintour - Vogue's director - to host the event gathering a series of stars taking place in May 2026.
Kpop star Lisa Blackpink also joined the organizing committee with names like Sabrina Carpenter, Doja Cat and Sam Smith.
Venus Williams took on the role of host for the first time, 7 years after her younger sister Serena was co-chair. Beyonce served as honorary president in 2013, with Nicole Kidman co-chairing in 2003 and 2005. Wintour continues to monitor this annual gala - a famous fundraising event, last year brought a record of 31 million USD to the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute.
The gala organizing committee also has designer Anthony Vaccarello and actor Zoe Kravitz as co-chairs.
The list of notable guests includes singers Sabrina Carpenter, Doja Cat, Sam Smith and Yseult...
Lisa Blackpink's appearance on the list of Met Gala organizers has surprised the online community. This is also the first time a K-pop artist has been featured in the power council of this prestigious event.
The Met Gala Organizing Committee is not only symbolic. A long tradition shows that the chosen members are all top fashion icons, have great influence and are trusted to convey the spirit of the gala theme.
They always appear in prominent positions on the red carpet, creating strong media appeal and attracting global attention.
Previously, in May 2025, Lisa had an impressive appearance at the Met Gala in a black Louis Vuitton outfit, including blazer, bodysuit, socks, combined with pearl accessories and handbags.
This bold style, although controversial, has helped the born again singer affirm her strong personality and influence in the fashion industry.
