Megan Fox, Billie Eilish and Lil Nas X gave their followers a rare behind-the-scenes look at this year’s Met Gala, a known selfie-free zone, on Monday.
While guests are forbidden from taking photos or videos with their phone at the exclusive event, a number of stars flout that rule every year.
The Old Town Road hitmaker, 22, ceased every chance to document the night on social media as he posed for snaps with Addison Rae, Timothée Chalamet, Pete Davidson, Yara Shahidi and Frank Ocean.
