Met Gala: yes I felt lonely, and yes I decided to be honest in an interview and no I don’t regret it. Here’s why-
1: I approached many people at the met gala, with a smile, and introduced myself. (A thread…..) – at West Hollywood, CA
Modeling and walking the red carpet was my dream. From when I was little to my teenage years, i didn’t think I was model material based off of unrealistic beauty standards. – at West Hollywood, CA
The only people that was truly kind and welcoming were people I worked with in the past(like on set for a shoot) or knew of my advocacy. Which wasn’t very many people lol
It was my dream to become a model since I was 3, so being there was so surreal. – at West Hollywood, CA
But this doesn’t mean I’m ungrateful, I’m still in shock that I was there and I’m thankful for the experience. I wasn’t expecting anything either but it can be disheartening when you don’t feel like you belong. – at West Hollywood, CA
Y’all don’t realize how exhausting this is. I shouldn’t have to defend my feelings because of my experience at the Met Gala. But yes, barely anyone talked to me but very brief and the only reason they did is bc I approached them. – at West Hollywood, CA
When I said “no one talked to me” and “didn’t care to ask”, I was mostly talking about the media outlets. When I walked up that red carpet, paparazzi were screaming at me to move so they could photograph the celebrity behind me. They didn’t care and that’s ok
I went to make my people proud and seen. Going into spaces like the Met, there are challenges, like breaking stereotypes. It’s intimidating when everyone around you is huge celebrities.
3: I felt like I was going out of my way to be a people pleaser and it was draining. After a while of trying to fit in, in a space where there is a huge lack of indigenous representation, I just starting focusing on why I went in the first place.
