De Blasio attends Met Gala red carpet -- years after ridiculing event
Fox News
New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio made an appearance at the Met Gala Monday night – despite previously shunning and ridiculing the high-society event.
"It’s an elite gathering, I’m not an elite guy. It really — let’s make it real simple, it’s just not my thing," he said at the time. "This is the kind of place where the elite goes and likes to be with each other, and I have a different approach." The appearance on Monday comes as de Blasio is considering a potential run for governor -- as he enters his final stretch in office.More Related News
