Blind Items Revealed #47
The Met Gala didn't use to always be the first Monday in May. For much of its early existence, it was a pre holiday spectacular to get everyone in the mood for the holidays. As soon as the current person took over, she switched it immediately because she wanted to do the exact opposite of anything the former editor did. Anyway, one particular year when it was still held in December, there was an alliterate designer who needed a very big loan because his business was struggling. He was an A list designer at the time but needed funds. Normally, he would have been the date of the person in charge, but that would have kept him from face time with people who could get him his money. So, in an act that might have actually set her death in motion, he gave her something that made her seriously ill to the point where she couldn't attend the event. The designer then got to pick his date and he chose a model/socialite/twin who knew just the right people to get the designer the money. In that particular year, the one name singer/actress had the best outfit.
