Madonna Goes Full Church Goth in Jean Paul Gaultier at the Met Gala
If a theme were made for one person, that person would be Madonna. The Met Gala's theme meant that the singer pulled out all the stops.
Leave it to Madonna to make a shocking statement on the Met Gala red carpet. One of the last guests to arrive, the singer went full church Goth in a black dress by longtime collaborator Jean Paul Gaultier that she accessorized with a crucifix dotted crown, a net veil, layered cross necklaces, and a handful of black roses.
It’s a statement that is totally in line with Madonna’s fashion legacy. The entertainer has, after all, grappled with her Catholic upbringing throughout her career. Flash back almost three decades to the video for “Like a Prayer” in which she knelt before (and kissed!) the statue of a saint wearing little more than a vintage slip dress. It was famously condemned by The Vatican. The Pope would call for a boycott of her Blond Ambition Tour just a year later—this time she wore religious garb over Jean Paul Gaultier’s corsets cone bras, one of most provocative looks to date, with backup dancers in nun habits and priest robes. Which all begs the questions, will Pope Francis weigh in on tonight’s look?

The first electric vehicle I ever drove was a Tesla Roadster in 2011. It was with great anticipation that I slid behind the wheel of the 2025 Acura ZDX Type S. Sure, it's a midsize SUV, but it wears the Type S moniker, a name reserved only for the most fun-to-drive in the Acura stable. On launch, the ZDX will be available in A-Spec and Type S trims -- both of which come equipped with a 102 kWh battery.
