This year’s event focuses on “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,” giving guests the opportunity to create their own interpretations of the theme. Famously, those who do not attend the Met Gala cannot actually watch what takes place _inside_ the event, but there is plenty of action to be seen beforehand. The Met Gala serves as a fundraiser for The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, and viewers eager to see the red carpet can tune in a couple of different ways. First, they can follow along via _Vogue_’s livestream on their [YouTube channel](https://www.youtube.com/vogue), which will be hosted by singer/actor Teyana Taylor, TV personality/actor La La Anthony, and _Saturday Night Live_’s Ego Nwodim. Internet personality Emma Chamberlain will also return as thered carpet correspondent for the night_. Vogue_’s livestream will start at 3 p.m. PST/6 p.m. ET, and viewers do not require a subscription to enjoy the event. E! News is also hosting a livestream of the Met Gala, which will be hosted by journalists Zanna Roberts Rassi and Elaine Welteroth, sports host Maria Taylor, actor Yvonne Orji, and fashion designer Christian Siriano. The _Live From E! Stream_ will be available on E! Online, Peacock, TODAY ALL DAY and All Fast partners, as well as on the YouTube channels for _E! News_, E! Insider, E!
