BLACKPINK's Jisoo explains Met Gala mix-up

BLACKPINK member Jisoo said on Friday that a simple routing mistake led to one of the most-circulated Met Gala clips from her first appearance at the event. In post-event comments reported on May 22, Jisoo said she had not intended to do a formal red-carpet interview and ended up there after being sent into the wrong line. The moment had already spread widely online after the May 4 gala in New York. Her explanation added a specific answer to a clip that had drawn attention largely because of how calmly she handled it. ### How did Jisoo say the mix-up happened? Jisoo said on Friday, May 22, that she accidentally joined the Met Gala interview line, according to reports that cited her account of the night. The explanation framed the interview as unplanned rather than part of a scheduled stop on the carpet. The viral attention centered on the contrast between the confusion behind the scenes and Jisoo’s composed appearance on camera. (ibtimes.sg) Reports describing the incident said fans reacted to the revelation by focusing on how she managed the exchange despite not expecting it. ### Why did that interview travel so widely online? The May 4 Met Gala produced the original clip during Jisoo’s first appearance at the event, and reposts on video and social platforms helped it circulate after the gala. (ibtimes.sg) Search results and reposted video pages show the interview continued to draw attention well after the carpet ended. Jisoo had already marked the appearance as her first Met Gala in a social-media post highlighted in follow-up coverage. (kpophit.com) Additional reports on her look said she attended in a custom Dior design, which placed her in the broader fashion conversation around the night as well as the interview chatter. ### Where does Margot Robbie fit into the post-Met coverage? (youtube.com) Margot Robbie also became part of the post-gala conversation after returning to the Met for the first time in three years. Coverage published after the event said Robbie wore a custom gold lamé Chanel couture gown at the May 4 gala in New York. Fashion coverage described the dress as a Chanel look designed under Matthieu Blazy, and one report said the gown required 761 hours of work. (allkpop.com) Those details kept Robbie in the aftermath coverage even as online attention split across multiple viral moments rather than settling on a single standout from the night. ### What was the separate Bezos-Sánchez fallout report? (wwd.com) Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez Bezos were part of Met Gala coverage because they served as honorary chairs for the 2026 event, and Sánchez walked the carpet while Bezos appeared inside, according to entertainment reports from May 4. Their role made them central to the event before later gossip coverage shifted to social reaction afterward. (wwd.com) A separate report amplified by MSN said some A-list attendees were allegedly “freezing out” the couple after the gala. That claim came from gossip-style reporting rather than a named public statement from attendees, and no direct on-record response from Bezos or Sánchez appeared in the material reviewed. (hollywoodreporter.com) ### What happens next in this story? The next phase is likely to remain in post-event interviews, fashion breakdowns and social-media clips tied to the May 4 Met Gala rather than any formal follow-up from organizers. Jisoo’s explanation on May 22 appears to have settled the central question around her interview, while Robbie’s Chanel look and the Bezos-Sánchez chatter continue to circulate in separate strands of coverage.
