Talk About Tennis 2.0

Today is Met Gala day. For those of us who use express buses to get home from work (used to in my case) it means if you don't either leave early or wait until after 7 to leave your job you'll be stuck in a traffic jam for at least an hour. They've do a lot this year to promote it though and they've even listed who is coming.


Me reacting to most of this partial list.

It's not clear if Jimin of BTS will attend although he's still in New York. Kpop fans are losing it.

Rihanna last night in NYC

Jimin got the Lagerfeld look down to a tee.

I like the other man's riff on the same look. Sorry but I don't know who he is.

Thanks to Elmo this is okay.

Patrick Mahomes is at the Met Gala looking like he can't afford a tailor despite signing a $450 million contract. The fit is egregious but so much worse in that context. He should have the most tailored suit in the building.

On the left is Brian Tyree Henry and on the right is Cai Xukun. Brian is an actor that is best known from the TV show Atlanta but has also appeared in a number of movies, and was nominated for a Best Supporting Actor Oscar this year. Cai Xukun is also known as just KUN and is a popular Chinese singer.

Thanks for clearing up who the Asian man is. Right now the men are hitting the Lagerfeld aesthetic better than the women are although most are sticking to the black and white.

Thank you Stefon Diggs. The other male athletes had been let downs of blandness for the most part.

FYI for anyone wondering about the theme -
