The Met Gala 2026 carpet brought the glam … and then it brought the "Wait, WTF is that?!" Because for every jaw-dropping slay, there was a look that had us at a loss for words in a totally different way.

Some stars nailed the theme at The Metropolitan Museum of Art Monday night … others left us confused -- from Jordan Roth and Heidi Klum to Gwendoline Christie and Olivia Wilde.

Either way, they got our attention -- and honestly, that's the whole point. These are the looks that didn't just turn heads ... they had Joan Rivers rolling in her grave.

The protester who tried to crash the Met Gala didn't get very far ... because New York's Finest surrounded the dude in a showing that put the Jets and Giants to shame.

We've got new video from the scary moment outside the venue Monday ... it starts when the protester shows photographers a sign calling out Amazon for refusing to negotiate a union contract with employees at JFK8, an Amazon warehouse on Staten Island. Warehouse workers voted to unionize in 2022 ... but the company has refused to recognize the movement and has been accused of employing union-busting tactics.

The sign also alleges this protester spent five days in an Israeli prison for espousing these views.

Lindsie Chrisley's ex-boyfriend David Landsman is begging the court for his own temporary restraining order against her -- days after she got one against him ... TMZ has learned.

In his petition, obtained by TMZ, David presents a much different version of events on what went down on April 10, the day he was arrested for assault.

David said they had a verbal fight, which led to her packing her things. He claims he told her not to contact him, which led to her allegedly punching him in the face.

Here's something guaranteed to hit you right in the feels ... Jelly Roll was out greeting a disabled fan, and TMZ caught every second of it!

It all went down outside "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" Monday afternoon -- a mom rolled up with her son, telling JR his music inspired the kid to start singing too ... then played him the video.

Jelly Roll lit up, and when he heard they’re coming to his show, he didn't hesitate ... telling them they're getting full red carpet treatment. The fan's excitement is off the charts ... check out the clip!

The Met Gala might not have an official end time ... but these stars knew when it was time to pack up and head out to the after-party.

Big-time stars left The Metropolitan Museum of Art Monday night and headed for a couple parties thrown by major brands ... celebs like Hailey Bieber, Tessa Thompson, and Charli XCX kept the vibes high at the Saint Laurent after-party at People's Bar in Manhattan.

These stars didn't need to change into comfy clothes and head to bed -- though Charli certainly sported a stripped down look ... and neither did other attendees like Camila Mendes, Marcello Hernandez, Kendall Jenner, and more.

New York Knicks fans acted like they've never experienced a playoff win on Monday ... and their celebration got so rowdy, ex-NBA star J.R. Smith went crashing to the ground amid all the chaos.

The scene broke out as spectators exited Madison Square Garden following the 137-98 victory ... and among the happy folks was the former Knick.

Naturally, the crowd was happy to see the beloved baller ... and it started off on a good note ... with Smith puffing on something in his mouth and celebrating with his hands in the air.

Jimmy Kimmel just can't bite his tongue when it comes to Donald Trump ... calling the world's most powerful man "Jabba The President" amid the 50th anniversary of "Star Wars."

The comedian once again came out swinging at Trump in his opening monologue on Monday's "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" ... and this time he zeroed-in on The Donald's figure.

Jimmy kicked things off by talking about the recent "Star Wars" celebration in Hollywood, with the film turning 50 next May. Kimmel then quickly pivoted to Trump, comparing him to the film's famous blob character, Jabba the Hutt.

Blue Ivy Carter and Sunday Rose Kidman Urban turned the Met Gala into a little bit of a rule-bending family affair ... and fashion's biggest night didn't seem mad about it.

The 2026 carpet was supposed to be strictly 18-plus -- a rule that's been in place since 2018 -- but somehow, these two high-profile teens slipped past the velvet rope ... and did it in serious style!

Leading the charge was 14-year-old Blue Ivy, who made her official Met Gala debut alongside her superstar parents, Beyoncé and Jay-Z. Blue didn't just show up ... she showed out, rocking a cream strapless Balenciaga gown, plus gold heels, diamonds and a cropped bomber jacket draped off her shoulders like she's been doing this for years.

Let's not kid ourselves ... 14-year-olds aren't supposed to touch this carpet. The 18-and-up rule is simple, unless you have a workaround ... show up with A-list parents. And for Blue, one of them was basically running the whole thing.

Samuel Monroe Jr.'s medical battle isn't over ... but for the first time in weeks, there are some signs of hope.

The "Menace II Society" actor -- who's been fighting for his life in an L.A. hospital -- is suddenly showing meaningful improvements amid a brutal health crisis that had his family fearing the worst.

Shawna Stewart, Samuel's wife, tells TMZ ... as of Sunday, doctors were able to stop the dialysis ... because his kidneys are tremendously improving. The doctors were also able to stop blood pressure medication, thanks to his levels finally looking better.

Jonathan Tiersten -- the actor best known for his role in the '80's horror classic "Sleepaway Camp," has died, TMZ has learned.

Tiersten passed away last week at his home in New Jersey, according to his brother, William Tiersten. William tells us the medical examiner is investigating Jonathan's cause of death.

In 1983, Jonathan landed his first film gig with the biggest role of his acting career, playing Ricky Thomas in "Sleepaway Camp." He also appeared in two out of the 4 sequels: "Return to Sleepaway Camp" and "Sleepaway Camp IV: The Survivor."

Kylie Jenner might be regretting her no eyebrow Met Gala look ... 'cause she says her brows are now ruined!

The makeup connoisseur documented her glam squad trying to dye her eyebrows back to black after she opted to bleach them to go with her custom Schiaparelli gown Monday night. Look at her IG clip -- she's cracking up as she says her "brows are ruined" and "this looks horrible."

Someone off-camera even accuses her hairstylist, Iggy Rosales, of leaving her "with no hair" -- but it's all clearly fun and games. And ... we're sure her makeup skills will have her eyebrows looking like nothin' even happened!

"General Hospital" star Steve Burton is back in court with his ex-wife Sheree Burton -- claiming she is interfering with his custodial time with their 11-year-old daughter -- TMZ has learned.

According to court docs, obtained by TMZ, Steve is asking a judge for help getting Sheree to comply with their custody settlement. He says they share joint legal and physical custody from their divorce judgment back in 2023.

The soap star says Sheree has refused to honor the deal by refusing to give him their daughter, Brooklyn, in July. He said his ex has "engaged in a pattern of unilateral decision making and deliberate obstruction that has effectively stripped Steve of his court-ordered parenting time.”

"Vanderpump Villa" star Marciano Brunette is making moves to get his hands on unaired 'Secret Lives of Mormon Wives' footage ... to help prove his case against cast member Demi Engemann and the production company that made the show.

According to court docs obtained by TMZ, Marciano is fighting the effort of Jeff Jenkins Productions -- the producers behind 'Mormon Wives' -- to have his defamation lawsuit thrown out of court.

Marciano said he's been asking producers to fork over the unaired show footage related to Demi's allegations of sexual assault. In addition, he wants to see the producers' internal communications about the sexual assault narrative and its editorial decisions.

Marciano insists there's no way his lawsuit should be kicked out on summary judgment before he has a chance to see all the evidence the producers have in their possession, which might be relevant to proving his case.
