Met Gala is something that happens once a year and as for this years fundraiser event–TikToker Hayley Kalil (whose widely known as @HayleyyBayley on her platform) was invited to take part on the annual event. 

Before attending the event, the influencer shared a video of her showing off her floral gown and headpiece designed by Marc Bower while having the track of Sofia Coppola’s Marie Antoinette playing in the background. 

Hayley Kahlil was later seen quoting the late queen’s phrase, “Let them eat cake,’ which later made the a lot of netizens to raise their eyebrows.
