The Met Gala’s crazy unwritten rules
The Met Gala is one of the most glamorous nights of the year but guests who don’t follow the strict rules risk being left off next year’s exclusive invitation list.
According to song lyrics, Corvettes are red and Cadillacs are pink. But don’t tell that to singer Kacey Musgraves.
The grammy-winning country star arrived at the Met Gala charity event in New York City on Monday riding on the back of a hot pink Chevrolet Corvette convertible.

It was part of her Barbie outfit for the camp fashion-themed event, which included a matching pink dress, stole, hairdryer purse and platinum blonde wig.
But even though it was supposed to look like a toy, she didn’t cheap out on the car. Rather than a base Corvette Stingray, she went with an $87,000 high performance Corvette Z06 powered by a 650 hp supercharged V8. Her driver probably had fun.

And he might have even more if she tries something similar at the next gala, because Chevy is introducing its first mid-engine Corvette later this year.
