The Stars Shine on the Met Gala Red Carpet!
Hollywood's finest were out in full force at the Metropolitan Museum of Art Costume Institute Gala in New York, where “Extra's” AJ Calloway was on the red carpet getting the scoop from the stars at what is known as the biggest night in fashion.
Bradley Cooper, host of the 2014 gala, revealed to AJ he recycled his suit! “I was here last year hosting it, so I have the same tux, 40 pounds lighter.” Bradley confessed, “We were trying to fit it, 'cause last year I was in the middle of doing [American] 'Sniper.'”
Cooper arrived solo to the event, but is rumored to be dating model Irina Shayk, who was also in attendance. Shayk played coy when AJ asked who she came with to the gala. “By myself, just me and my dress and my little bird, it's actually he, he's my date.”
Model Hannah Davis, on the other hand, made her Met Gala debut with boyfriend Derek Jeter, telling AJ she had no choice but to walk the red carpet with the Yankee legend. “Well, it's the only way to get in here, so you have to walk the carpet!”
The legendary Cher arrived with designer Marc Jacobs and was fine with the no selfie rule initiated by Anna Wintour. “I don't take them, I hate selfies!”
Sarah Jessica Parker walked the carpet with good friend and “Watch What Happens: Live” host Andy Cohen, wowing everyone with her Philip Tracey headpiece and dress by H&M. “I designed it in collaboration with H&M; they have this really interesting, wonderful new initiative called Conscious Collection, and they use organic fabrics.”

Sarah continued, “I was pretty far along the process when they came to me and had already been working with a tailor, and I loved the idea because it allowed me to do all this stuff with the typical Chinese sashes. Sarah said her children were delighted and amazed when they saw her. Andy added, “It was so cute, she came down the stairs like a queen and I was carrying her train.”
Katy Perry rocked a Moshino dress and accessorized it with a handbag in the shape of a spray can, joking to AJ, “I'm gonna spray paint the inside of the Met Ball this evening with my Moshino purse.” Katy also sported a new pixie cut, and was spotted having fun with Madonna, who just happened to be with her ex-boyfriend, DJ and music producer Diplo. Said Perry, “We are going to be breaking bread together later. I love her, I hope she passes me the baton one day, I doubt she will.”

Madonna also wore Moshino to the gala and stayed tight-lipped when AJ asked about her about the infamous kiss with Drake at Coachella and her recent “I kissed a girl and I liked it” comment. “It's too complex, that's a layer cake.”
Katie Holmes told AJ about her new bob and bangs, “I think the Met Ball is an opportunity to obviously bring together art and fashion, and coming up with a new look and something fun is key!”
