Even if Zendaya skips the event, many other celebrities are scheduled to honor the “Fashion is Art” dress code. Starting with the co-chairs of the 2026 edition: Beyoncé, Nicole Kidman, Venus Williams, and Anna Wintour. This marks Beyoncé’s first time returning to the Met Gala in 10 years, which should give fashion lovers something delightful to look forward to amid news of Zendaya’s absence.
The organizing committee, headed by Anthony Vaccarello (creative director at Saint Laurent) and Zoë Kravitz, will include, among others, Sabrina Carpenter, Doja Cat, Gwendoline Christie, Alex Consani, Elizabeth Debicki, Lena Dunham, Sam Smith, Teyana Taylor, and Lisa from Blackpink. Approximately 450 guests are rumored to attend, including the ever-stylish Anne Hathaway, Bad Bunny, Lady Gaga, Priyanka Chopra, Rihanna, Harry Styles, Rosalía, and Heated Rivalry stars Connor Storrie and Hudson Williams. Honorary presidents Jeff Bezos and his wife Lauren Sanchez may also make an appearance, though their involvement has drawn criticism.
