Katy Perry trends for ‘best dressed’ at 2025 Met Gala despite not attending

  • Katy Perry trended as ‘best dressed’ at the 2025 Met Gala despite not attending the event in New York City on Monday, May 6, 2025.
  • The trend arose because AI-generated images circulated widely on social media, falsely showing Perry at the Gala for a second consecutive year.
  • Perry confirmed her absence, explaining via Instagram that she missed the Gala due to commitments on her ongoing Lifetimes Tour and shared sketches and AI edits of her supposed Gala look.
  • The AI-generated images quickly went viral on social media, attracting a huge number of views and comments, with many fans admiring Perry’s outfit, while some warned others about the edits—including Perry’s own mother, who was also deceived.
  • This incident highlights increasing challenges of distinguishing AI fabrications in celebrity culture and suggests Perry’s busy touring schedule will continue to prevent her Gala attendance.
