A humanoid robot caught everyone’s attention at the Met Gala 2026. From listening to photographers’ requests to posing for the cameras, it stole the spotlight at the big event. Furthermore, the AgiBot robot, which represented designer Alexander Wang, also had to deal with a small issue. It got trapped while getting out of the elevator of The Mark Hotel. With the help of the staff and its caretakers, the machine soon found its way.

An AgiBot robot at the Met Gala 2026 surprised photographers and onlookers. It was invited as a guest of designer Alexander Wang at the fashion event. The humanoid figure came out of New York’s The Mark Hotel, where A-list celebrities stay or get ready before the gala. However, before stepping outside, it got trapped inside the elevator.

A video, shared by PEOPLE, featured the robot appearing as soon as the lift’s door opened. Photographers seemed to be waiting for it outside the elevator. One of the female camerapersons was heard saying, “Come on,” to the machine. But the robot got stuck as it took a slight left turn. The bodyguards soon came to its aid and helped it to safely get out of the closed space.

Seeing the situation, the woman photographer/videographer could be heard laughing and saying, “He’s trapped. He needs assistance.” But when the robot posed for the cameras, the paparazzi seemed excited. Another person asked it to “give us a pose,” and the humanoid robot obliged.

Furthermore, InStyle also released a video of the robot from outside the luxury hotel. Like any other celebrity, the Met Gala droid walked towards different directions and posed for the photographers. 

Meanwhile, the paparazzi also seemed to be having fun while interacting with the new guest. One of them asked, “Robot, are you ok?” Another praised, “I see you shining there.”

Emma Chamberlain proved again that she is a fashion force to be reckoned with. Arriving at the Met Gala, the turned style icon stunned onlookers in a custom Mugler creation. This wasn’t just a dress; it was a walking work of art that perfectly blended high fashion with a bold, avant-garde spirit.

The gown was a breathtaking achievement in design. It featured a completely sheer, skin-tight base that acted like a second skin. Over this delicate fabric, vibrant strokes of yellow, green, and deep blue were applied in a manner that resembled thick oil paint. The “painted” effect, textured and raw, gave the impression that the colors were swirling around her body.

Adding to the drama were the incredible details on the sleeves and hem. Long, thin fringe draped from her wrists, transitioning from a light cream to a dark, moody blue. The bottom of the gown exploded into a voluminous, ruffled train that mimicked the crashing waves of an ocean or a painter’s messy palette. She paired the look with towering blue platform heels that added to her statuesque silhouette.

Chamberlain’s beauty look was just as daring. She sported a bleached blonde, edgy pixie cut that gave her a punk-rock vibe. Her makeup featured heavy, dark eyeshadow that created a “sunken” and dramatic eye look, contrasting sharply with her pale complexion. This moody aesthetic perfectly complemented the artistic chaos of the Mugler gown.

Overall, Chamberlain looked like a masterpiece brought to life. By choosing such a unique and “painted” garment, she successfully bridged the gap between the world of fine art and the red carpet.
