Rachel Zegler Responds to Criticism Over Celebrities Attending The Met Gala

this is not some kind of twitter stan issue and when it gets treated as such, it delegitimizes the reason for donating, for sharing information. when you decide to point fingers instead of educating, you make people afraid to speak- to say the wrong thing, to not say enough,

Rachel attended the Met Gala dressed by Michael Kors

Attendes are getting called out for attending while a genocide is happening

(the deleted comment she is responding to her said "And where will your donation be?", full screenshot after the cut)




so let’s be better together. 🍉🇵🇸

of course i am. it’s partly the only helpful course of action i can take besides sharing information. please see my twitter for more.

we do not pay for our tickets- i hope this helps. massive donations are made by brands who then invite people to represent them. the money goes to the preservation of important pieces in fashion history and the ability to educate about them in the future.
