Controversial Disney star Rachel Zegler set for Met Gala 2025
Rachel Zegler‘s heading to the 2025 Met Gala, and the buzz is electric-though not without some drama. The 23-year-old star of Disney’s Snow White, which hit theaters in March 2025, scored an invite to the May 5 event at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, joining a star-studded lineup.
“Rachel Zegler’s Met Gala invite is a big moment,” an X user posted, but her Snow White role has stirred controversy: some fans slammed her 2021 comments calling the original “not feminist enough,” while others, per BBC, see her as a “victim of culture wars” for her Latina casting. Social media is split: “She’s gonna slay the Met!” one fan cheered, while another griped, “Still mad about her Snow White takes.”
The 2025 Met Gala, themed “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,” celebrates Black dandyism through history, tied to the Costume Institute’s exhibit. Co-chairs Zendaya, Bad Bunny, Chris Hemsworth, Jennifer Lopez, and Anna Wintour are set to host, promising a night of jaw-dropping fashion.
“Zendaya always brings it-can’t wait!” an X user gushed, hyping the Euphoria star’s return after her 2024 Maison Margiela peacock gown. Bad Bunny, fresh off his 2024 Margiela suit, and J.Lo, who stunned in Schiaparelli last year, are sure to turn heads too. Hemsworth, a Met Gala newbie, adds fresh energy to the mix.
Rachel Zegler’s invite sparks Snow White buzz
Zegler’s invite comes after a rocky Snow White rollout-reviews were harsh, with The Observer calling it “toe-curlingly terrible,” and her co-star Gal Gadot faced backlash for her pro-Israel stance amid the film’s release. “Zegler became a lightning rod for controversy,” a film critic noted on X, citing Hollywood’s “creative stagnation” and racial politics.
Still, her 2024 Met Gala appearance-rocking a Michael Kors gown with icy blue shadow-proved she’s a red carpet force. “She channeled a water princess last year,” Vogue raved, tying her look to her Snow White role.
The Met Gala’s a fashion Super Bowl, raising millions for the Costume Institute-tickets cost $75,000, often covered by brands for celebs like Zegler. “It’s a work event, even if it looks glamorous,” a Reddit user on r/Fauxmoi pointed out, defending stars amid 2024’s Palestine-related criticism. With Zegler joining A-listers like Zendaya and Hemsworth, the 2025 Gala’s set to be a cultural and controversial moment.
