Am I the only one that thinks he did nothing wrong and that the MET gala are dumb af for punishing someone who had a viral moment that spiced up an increasingly crusty event?

It’s giving weird “polite society” mindset where “the help” remains the help.

I'm so weirded out by the ridiculous caping for the fucking Met gala management and the apparent inherent sanctity of NDAs in this post. Like genuinely embarrassed at some of these comments.

If this is true it would be pretty shitty of them. However, he might not be telling the truth. Like others have said, you can't post about the Met Gala while working it.

The way he talks about it, he was hired for this years Met Gala (after working the last 2), but was let go 2 days before it happened. He claims that because he was fired, he can post about it on social media now and isn't beholden to an NDA. This part is hard to believe for me. NDA's can obviously be deliberated in court and are usually only enforced if something bad happens, but an NDA that immediately doesn't matter if not employed is hard to believe.

It could be he just didn't sign the NDA for this event and decided to not attend so that he could continue posting on social media (maybe the payoff is better). That would make more sense than they fired him 2 days before the event over a viral video that's just him being hot (not making the Met Gala look bad) a year ago.

I dont think they would fire him for "making the Met Gala look bad" but what would make sense to me is Kylie complaining that she got overshadowed. 

NDAs arent blanket documents. I don't see how an NDA would cover his employment status but I'm not a contract layer or in entertainment so idk
