Doja Cat might not be invited back to next year’s Met Gala after she was spotted vaping on multiple occasions at the event on Monday night. Anna Wintour and Met Museum Costume Institute curator-in-charge Andrew Bolton both remarked that smoking is a surefire way to get banned from the Met Gala during an interview with CBS’ Gayle King.
“What’s the best way to be invited and what’s the best way to never be invited back again? What really ticks you off, Anna?” King asked the two. “Smoking in the gallery,” Andrew interjected. “Touching the art.” “Smoking, yes,” Anna agreed, while Andrew added, “Those would be no-nos.”

Fans caught Doja vaping in the background of an interview between Emma Chamberlain and Jennie. The moment quickly went viral on social media. The Planet Her rapper previously spoke about smoking nicotine-free vapes during a conversation with Interview Magazine, last month.
“I haven’t smoked nicotine in like 10 weeks,” she told the publication. “And then Elle just came out with a shoot where I’m smoking a cigarette, but it was when I was smoking. They’ve had these photos in this interview for a thousand years, and now people are like, ‘Oh my God, she’s smoking again.’ But I don’t smoke. I’m nicotine free. And I love nicotine free vapes. Any zero nicotine vape doesn’t hit, it just feels like you’re breathing and it’s like, ‘What is this?’ It feels pointless. But this thing really feels… It hits, it has the same effect. I also got hypnotherapy.”
Doja Cat’s Met Gala appearance comes as she prepares for the release of her next album. In a tweet posted last week, she hinted towards dropping the lead single from the project within the next month. Be on the lookout for more information regarding new music from the rapper in the coming weeks.
