Meanwhile, when most of the Internet was busy using their skills to Photoshop Priyanka's outfit, one YouTuber hilariously parodied the overall fashion at the Met Gala. Quenlin Blackwell created some rather bizarre outfits using everyday objects like a broom, a cane basket and wine glasses, to spoof some of the outfits seen at the red carpet. Take a look.
