Playboi Carti Claims He’s Banned From Met Gala, Shows Off His Fit
Playboi Carti didn’t get to have the blue carpet moment he hoped for at the 2025 Met Gala because he was allegedly banned from fashion’s biggest night.
On Tuesday (May 6), about 24 hours after the Met Gala kicked off at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, Playboi Carti debuted what would have been his fly attire for the evening in a post on Instagram.
“MET GALA BANNED ME FELT LIKE WE GOT KICKED OUT OF PROM BUT WE GOOD @ft.gioo WITH ME IM A HAPPY MAN F**K EM @chromeheartsofficial,” he wrote as the caption.
The images show Carti running down a hotel hallway and posing in a room with Giovanna “Gio” Ramos, a Brazilian model who was running with Lil Yachty and the Concrete Boys over the last year. Late last year, streamer Young Dabo had Gio on his stream and named the title of the video I Hired Playboi Carti’s Stylist To Style Me (Gio). So, apparently that may have been how Gio and Carti initially connected.
Carti opted for a classic black-and-white ensemble: white button-down shirt, black leather jacket, black leather pants, black skully and black Converse sneakers.
Take a look at Playboi Carti and Gio’s Met Gala ’fits below.
