Jenna Ortega's 2025 Met Gala Dress Was Literally Made to Measure
Last night, Jenna Ortega arrived to the Met Gala in a shining metal dress custom designed by Balmain. Sleek and understated, the look was expertly sculpted—and perfectly on the nose for the carpet's dress code, 'Tailored For You.'
'A poetical ode to couture and craftsmanship, her sleek sheath dress is crafted entirely from the metallic rulers used by pattern makers, placed vertically along the body to enhance the silhouette to create a bustier gown sculpted on her body,' Balmain explained in a statement. Ortega completed the look with a smoky eye, understated silver jewelry, and a perfectly crisp french manicure. Fresh off her dark comedy film, Death of a Unicorn, the actress fully embodied Balmain's edgy but humorous spirit.
This is Ortega's third Met Gala appearance. The Wednesday star first made her fashionable debut in 2022 for 'In America: An Anthology of Fashion,' and returned in 2023 for 'Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty,' wowing both times in custom Valentino and Thom Browne, respectively.

Following last night's event, the actress made a quick change into a tuxedo body suit with exaggerated padded shoulders. Ortega stepped out hand-in-hand with Sabrina Carpenter, who had also switched into a simple suit paired with a skinny tie, oversized canary-yellow jacket, and a matching Louis Vuitton Speedy. The duo made the trip downtown to attend A$AP Rocky's party at Jeans in SoHo, alongside Rihanna and A$AP's grandmother, making the evening a family affair.

Madonna Teams Up With Shawn Levy and Netflix For a Limited Series Based on Her Life: Report
Madonna fans have been waiting for years to see the Queen of Pop get her very own biopic — and according to a new report, they may finally get to see one. According to a report from Deadline on Monday (May 12), Madonna has teamed up with Deadpool & Wolverine producer Shawn Levy to develop a limited series based on her life and career for Netflix. Levy's production company 21 Laps currently has an exclusive deal with Netflix.

The new project is apparently not related to a much-discussed and since-delayed feature film based on Madonna's life. The project, which was being developed by Universal Pictures and set to star Ozark and Inventing Anna actress Julia Garner as the pop superstar, was put on an indefinite hold in 2023 as Madonna embarked on her Celebration World Tour. In 2024, however, Madonna sparked rumors that the film might be back in the works, when she shared a since-deleted photo of herself sitting at a typewriter working on a screenplay titled Who's That Girl — an apparent nod to her 1987 film and song of the same name. Still, Madonna herself floated the idea of creating a TV series about her life in November of last year, claiming that a number of 'producers and agents' told her that she wouldn't be able to make her film the way she wanted to. 'Downsize-down scale-think smaller-they say—I realized that everything in my life is going to be challenged,' she wrote in a since-removed post, before asking her fans if they would prefer to see her story adapted into 'a series or a feature film.'

🎥 On the loo for the Henkelpott: why TikTokers spent 27 hours on the toilet
🎥 On the loo for the Henkelpott: why TikTokers spent 27 hours on the toilet Quit your job, trade in your car, skip your own wedding - for a ticket to the Champions League final, many fans would sacrifice just about anything. Two TikTok influencers from Belgium took it to the extreme this year, venturing into not entirely legal territory. Neal Remmerie and Senne Haverbeke donned yellow safety vests 27 hours before the final in Munich, made their way onto the stadium grounds, and hid out in a stadium restroom. Advertisement The duo revealed as much to Belgian news outlet 'VRT News'. To make their hiding spot even more secure, they stuck "out of order" signs on the toilet doors. 📸 Stu Forster - 2025 Getty Images But the overnight stay wasn't quite as relaxed as it seemed, according to Remmerie: "We had a backpack with snacks and played on our phones to pass the time. The lights were on the whole time and the seating position was uncomfortable, so it was almost impossible to sleep. That made it physically and mentally tough." Incidentally, they also filmed the whole thing and documented it on TikTok: At least the hardships seemed worth it for the two Belgians: after the stadium gates opened, they managed to sneak into the block with the PSG fans. It was the best game they'd ever seen, they told 'VRT News'. Advertisement UEFA and the Allianz Arena's stadium operator have yet to comment on the incident in response to inquiries from the 'BBC'. It remains to be seen whether the two Belgians will face any official consequences. This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence.

Madonna Announces A New Album Dropping Next Month
Madonna announces Veronica Electronica, a remix album of Ray of Light era tracks, arriving July 25 ... More and led by 'Skin (The Collaboration Remix Edit).' NEW YORK, NEW YORK - MAY 05: Madonna attends the 2025 Met Gala Celebrating "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" at Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 05, 2025 in New York City. (Photo by Kevin Mazur/MG25/Getty Images for The Met Museum/Vogue) For several months now, Madonna has been teasing the next chapter of her musical career. The superstar revealed on social media not long ago that she's working on a follow-up to her album Confessions on a Dance Floor, which she is currently referring to as Confessions 2. There's no word yet on when fans will get to hear anything from that project. But they won't have to wait long before they can listen to new tunes from the icon, as she has announced a completely separate full-length that's set to arrive in only a few weeks. Madonna has announced a new album titled Veronica Electronica. The full-length remix set is expected to drop on July 25. The first tune from the project, "Skin (The Collaboration Remix Edit)," was shared at the time of the announcement. Veronica Electronica features seven previously unreleased and rare remixes of songs from her album Ray of Light. The tracklist includes smashes like "Frozen," "Nothing Really Matters," and, of course, the title track, as well as several other cuts. Fans who pick up a copy of the album will also be treated to a never-before-shared demo of the song "Gone, Gone, Gone," which wasn't originally featured on Ray of Light. According to a press release announcing Veronica Electronica, the album was apparently conceived back in 1998 during her Ray of Light era. When the full-length took off and became hugely successful—perhaps more so than some in her camp were expecting—the remixes were put aside and never revisited until now, more than a quarter-century later. It's now been almost six years since Madonna released a new studio full-length. Madame X, her fourteenth project, dropped in the summer of 2019. The Grammy winner has reportedly already played Confessions 2 for some people, but when it comes to the general public, she's remaining quiet about the set. Madonna is also currently busy prepping a Netflix miniseries about her life, which was once meant to be a feature-length film, but which appears to have shifted mediums, perhaps in order to fit more story in.
