Met Gala, one of the biggest events in the world celebrating haute fashion, is often followed by a chain of memes. This year is no different. The meme-fication of Met Gala is keeping Twitter users across the globe busy and how. Credit where its due - Jared Leto and Doja Cat showing up as late designer Karl Lagerfeld's pet cat Choupette has been topping the list. The theme for the year was "Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty." The exhibit celebrated the legacy of iconic designer who died in 2019 and hence, the cat outfits. An unwanted guest and Cardi B's side-eye too have been churning out meme gold (more on that later).
The meme-fication, or should we say, meow-fication of Doja Cat is definitely the talk of T-town (as in Twitter ). "Just witnessed the ultimate internet fusion at the Met Gala: Doja Cat talking like a cat made entirely out of memes. We've officially entered the Matrix of internet culture," wrote a user.
There's no end to these cat memes. Is there? Inspiration credits - Jared Leto and Doja Cat.

In a surprising turn of events, there were no Jason Derulo falling memes and Twitter took note. "This is the first Met Gala I've witnessed without a "Jason Derulo falling" meme. Nature is healing," wrote a Twitter user.

Rapper Lil Nas X, who is known for his eccentric red carpet appearances, did what he does best. "ITS GIVING... troll," commented a Twitter user. We wonder if his look was inspired by The Tin Man from The Wizard Of Oz.
