We're looking at Sydney Sweeney now, who's always gorgeous.
Yes. I'm not a lover of this drape on this other dress. You know, this shawl. Oh, you mean on Lala.
But yeah, we're looking at Sydney now. No, I know.
I'm looking at her and I'm thinking to myself, it takes away from her beautiful face and it sort of looks like she's got a sheet thrown or a blanket thrown over her shoulder.
Yeah, fair. I think Sydney looked good in all the black. I love the key neck. Now, wait a minute.
That looks like Hamilton. Costume out of Hamilton.

Chapter 3: How is the Met Gala set up?
you know, go out with a bang. I was at a party about a year or so ago where she sang. That's cool. And her voice is still... You have cool friends. Well, I think that was the last party that I had any cool friends at. But look how hard it is to get up those steps. Can you imagine us going up those steps? I can't even get out the front step of my building. So now these people are just...
Oh, she's just in a pretty white suit, that one that they just flashed on.
How many men are helping her? One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine. Well, they have to spread it, because they're spreading the train. Yeah, for the photos. And then they stop along the carpet to do their press, you know.
And when she takes that off, she still has a gorgeous body, by the way.
Well, when they go in to have dinner. Oh, this is all done then? No, they go in and have dinner. Yes. But do they take the cape off? Of course. You can't walk around with that cape all night. So you think she's going to change? Now, who's kissed her? I think she was, was it Zoe Kraut? Uh, no. I don't know who, oh, it was, uh. See, now, I don't know. Oh, there's a, is that, there's a day.

Chapter 5: Who are the notable co-chairs and celebrities at this year's event?
Yeah, but it's very interesting. Everybody is putting a little bit of something on their different attire.
True. It's a fun way to accessorize.
Exactly. And then you can take it off and wear it a different way. I'm like... A lot of red shoes.
Not into these looks, but I want his giant K necklace for myself. Oh, yeah. Shaw Khan, but... And again, he has a cane...
Because I'm telling you, the cane was very Cab Calloway. Yeah. For people who want to go back and look at dancing, one of the great dancers of, you know, tap dancers of the time was Cab Calloway. And he would dance with his group and he would tap the cane and catch the cane. So that was, you know, part of his entertainment. And that look was carried on by many people in Hollywood.
Harlem and other black areas that wanted to emulate Camp Calloway.
Right. But if you wore a cane now, Like when people just think you had a bad back.
They think you were a big dandy, which is what they want them to show.
I think they would think you had a bad back.
