Pro-Palestine protests erupted near the 2025 Met Gala in New York City, where celebrities gathered under the theme “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,” overseen by Vogue’s Anna Wintour and co-chaired by stars like Pharrell Williams and LeBron James. Demonstrators brandished “Free Palestine” banners and flags, clashing with police as tensions rose, particularly as counter-protesters appeared with Israeli flags. The Met Gala, known for its extravagant celebrations, has a history of protests, with this year’s event drawing significant attention due to the ongoing conflict and social issues.
