Comedian Margaret Cho provided the humorous Twitter commentary you never knew you needed for the Met Gala ball and the flurry of weird and wonderful costumes.
The American stand-up comedian gently roasted some celebrities and unabashedly praised others in her standard witty repartee – and we’re here for it.
The annual benefit for the Costume Institute at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC provided fodder for Cho’s sharp humour, and she wasted no time talking about Celine Dion’s dress and Ashley Graham’s apparent flirtation with both Slytherin and Gryffindor.
Cho didn't hold her tongue.
