Model Precious Lee only had only positive things to say about Karl Lagerfeld’s designs Monday at the Met Gala. “It’s alluring, seductive, captivating, timeless, elevated,” Lee told The Associated Press.

Lee, a plus-sized model, wore a black Fendi gown with a hot pink Fendi baguette purse for the night.

She did not have any direct comment about Lagerfeld’s comments about fat people, but simply said, “I’m fat. Always have been, always will be.”

Lagerfeld was not shy about his own fatphobia and did not think he should have to cast models of different sizes in his shows.

Brittney Griner knows she has an advantage over other Americans being detained overseas as a public figure with access to media.

The WNBA star used that influence on the carpet at the Met Gala to talk about helping support families working to free Americans jailed in foreign prisons through the organization Bring Our Families Home, dressed in Calvin Klein and alongside her wife

The 6-foot, 9-inch Griner is finally taking on a more public profile after being traded for Russian arms dealer Viktor Bout on Dec. 8, 10 months after she was arrested at a Moscow airport. Authorities said a search of her luggage revealed vape cartridges containing cannabis oil. She later pleaded guilty and was sentenced to nine years in prison.

Griner recently appeared at an event with Al Sharpton and attended the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner in Washington on Saturday. She had her first news conference since her release in preparation for the upcoming basketball season, which starts May 19.

Serena Williams and Alexis Ohanian announced they were expecting a baby during a Vogue livestream interview with La La Anthony.

The tennis superstar announced she would retire from the sport in August, saying she wanted to focus on her business interests — and having another child.

Williams and Ohanian beamed as they told Anthony there were three of them up there for the interview. Then Ohanian and Anthony both offered to have a drink on Williams’ behalf inside.

The couple has a 5-year-old daughter, Olympia. Williams actually announced her intention to step away from tennis in an essay for — where else? — Vogue.

Actor Penélope Cruz, one of this year’s Met Gala co-chairs, said she felt lucky and privileged to be part of group honoring a genius, the late designer Karl Lagerfeld, who she said she was lucky to call a friend. “He really deserves this and not only because of his talent and his generosity,” Cruz said. “I know people at Chanel for almost 30 years. I know, like whoever is and has been there for so long, they loved him so much. It’s not just the ones at the top.”

Cruz, who has an ongoing relationship with Chanel, said that everyone at the house is treated with respect. On Monday she wore a hooded, sheer, white gown by Chanel.

“I’m proud to be working with a brand that has those values,” she said.

Lagerfeld transformed the historic fashion brand but also was a controversial figure for his views on fatness, gay men who want to adopt children, migrants, sexual assault survivors, the #MeToo movement and “ugly” people.

You’d be forgiven for thinking the Met Gala seemingly followed in the Oscars’ footsteps with a more champagne-colored path into the exclusive party.

Garnished with red and blue lines snaking up the famed stairs, the Met Gala carpet also pays tribute to the Karl Lagerfeld exhibit inside, which “centers first and foremost on the dichotomy of the curved ‘S’ line (think romantic, decorative) and the straight line (modern, minimalist), with one curved wall and one straight wall in each gallery,” according to AP’s Jocelyn Noveck.
