Full Story
The 2023 Met Gala paid tribute to the legendary fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld, who passed away in 2019. Attendees donned vintage Chanel looks as well as modern twists on Lagerfeld’s designs. However, there was one particular muse who inspired two unforgettable looks at the event: Choupette, Lagerfeld’s beloved cat. Jared Leto and Doja Cat both paid tribute to the Birman, showcasing Lagerfeld’s affection for his pet.
Lagerfeld’s love for Choupette was well-known and she led a life of luxury with private jets, her own iPad, personal maids, and delicious meals. She was even involved in Met Gala preparations, spending time with Kim Kardashian at Lagerfeld’s office. However, despite receiving multiple invites to the event, Choupette declined to attend and opted to stay “peacefully and cozy at home,” as her Instagram account with over 170,000 followers shared.
Choupette’s decision to decline the invitation and stay home follows in the footsteps of other animal celebrities who were invited to star-studded events but ultimately didn’t attend. Martin McDonagh, the director of “The Banshees of Inisherin,” confirmed that a similar-looking donkey was brought out to the 2023 Oscars in place of Jenny, the movie’s retired donkey who received multiple invites but didn’t attend.
While Choupette’s absence may have disappointed some, it’s understandable that the red carpet can be overwhelming for animals. Nonetheless, her legacy lives on as Lagerfeld’s love for her continues to inspire and captivate hearts.
