It’s honestly wild that in a year where tech and AI are literally rewriting the rules of our world, the two biggest titans of the industry: Jeff Bezos and Mark Zuckerberg: were completely missing from the Met Gala carpet. Usually, the Met is the ultimate intersection of power, tech, and high fashion, and their absence feels like a massive shift.
Did they decide that the red carpet spectacle just isn't 'on brand' anymore, or are they too busy building their respective empires (or bunkers) to care about a museum fundraiser? Some might say it’s a refreshing break from the billionaire worship, while others feel the event lost some of its 'master of the universe' energy without them.
Either way, seeing these seats empty at fashion’s biggest night definitely sparks a conversation about where the real influence lies today. Is the era of the celebrity CEO at the Met officially over, or was this just a scheduling conflict for the ultra-wealthy? #tech #fashion #culture https://thoxt.com/l/4eMlwL 🔗
