Sneak peek: Unseen pictures and videos from inside the Met Gala 2019

It’s that time of the year again! New York‘s Metropolitan Museum of Art lit up with stars today on occasion of the 2019 edition of the annual Met Gala, a celebration of fashion and art that guarantees a slew of unmissable pink carpet moments. Like every year before it, the Met Gala saw musicians, actors and fashion enthusiasts go all-out with their looks to match its dress code, which, this time around, was “Camp: Notes on Fashion”. Given the theme, extravagance was the aesthetic everyone went with, and the guest list did not disappoint. In case you still haven’t been able to figure out what camp really means, here’s an explanation.

While you may have already seen what your favourite stars wore to Met Gala 2019 (there’s really no way you could have missed Priyanka Chopra‘s feather-meets-shine Dior gown or Deepika Padukone‘s Barbie-esque pink number), few have been able to access all the action from inside the gala and the after party, hosted by Gucci, which seemed like an absolute blast. Feeling a little FOMO? Here’s a look at everything you missed.

Katy Perry and Lady Gaga’s theatrical Met Gala 2019 transformations

If there’s one star whose look we won’t be forgetting anytime soon, it’s got to be Katy Perry. The singer walked into the Met Gala this year dressed as a chandelier, crystals and all, but that wasn’t the end of it for her. During the course of the evening, Perry rushed to the restroom for a quick outfit change, ditching her chandelier ensemble for a shimmering burger costume. One hilarious video shows Perry stepping into her quirky outfit as Jennifer Lopez walks by. Another video you may have missed shows Lady Gaga theatrically shedding layer after layer on the pink carpet, showing the shutterbugs all the four (yes, really!) outfits she picked for the celebration.

Deepika Padukone and Priyanka Chopra’s behind-the-scenes Met Gala 2019 moments

As part of the Met Gala Benefit Committee, Priyanka Chopra made it a point to go all-out with her look this year, opting for a feather-detailed Dior number, which she amped up with the most intense eye makeup. Prior to walking the pink carpet, the actor shared a peek at her beauty look via a dramatic selfie video (have you seen a more Bollywood-style eyelash flutter?), and some of her unseen moments from the evening also show her hanging out with husband Nick Jonas. As for Deepika Padukone, one video that seems to be taking over the internet shows the star making her way out of her hotel like the tallest life-size pageant doll you’ve ever seen. This particular video clip of herself twirling during fittings is one you’ve got to check out.

Gigi Hadid gets a bit weird inside the Met Gala venue

Along with special performances, a few of the Met Gala 2019 guests were seen exploring the museum’s exhibition on camp in fun videos shot by US Vogue. While one video shows sister Kylie Jenner, Kendall Jenner and Kim Kardashian West laughing away while striking a pose, another shows Gigi Hadid experimenting with her model walk. Dressed in a sparkling Michael Kors ensemble, Hadid makes a very interesting subject.

Deepika Padukone hangs out with #Nickyanka at the Met Gala 2019 after-party

One of the most exciting aspects of the Met Gala has to be its star-studded after-party. Hosted by Gucci this year, the post-event celebration saw a slew of celebrities come together, and one of the first inside pictures to take over the internet shows Deepika Padukone (dressed in a yellow maxi and graphic print coat) spending time with Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas. While Jonas changed his all-white look for a black suit, Chopra replaced her Dior gown with a silver romper, but left those rhinestone-studded tights on for the party. Joining them in the picture was one more Met Gala 2019 guest: Natasha Poonawalla.
