Before the 2015 Met Gala kicked off this week, there were reports that Anna Wintour officially banned guests from taking selfies and using their phones to post on social media during the event. "Security and enjoyment of the event" were listed as reasons for the ban, but as we saw Monday night, no one listening and there were lots of selfies taken before, during, and after the Gala. According to sources, Anna Wintour has been keeping track of all the disobedience, and some of the celebrities who ignored the ban may not be invited back next year.

"She does not know what she’s going to do yet but she’s deciding," said a Vogue insider to The Gossip Table. Kanye West, Kim Kardashian, Madonna, Beyoncé, Katy PerryCara Delevingne, Kendall Jenner, Lady Gaga, Justin Bieber, and others were among the offenders, and many of them are close to Wintour. Another source said that the stars were given 24 hours to remove their photos, or they would suffer the consequences. 

It's hard to believe that Wintour would ban some of these big name stars for one or two selfies, but she would be the boss of all bosses if she did. We'll have to wait and she is she confirms the reports, or if names are missing from the Met Gala VIP list next year..
