She has a lot of thoughts on red carpets….

Khloé Kardashian was a no-show at the Met Gala this year, despite the fact that her sisters Kim Kardashian, Kylie Jenner, and Kendall Jenner were in attendance (as well as their mom, Kris Jenner!).

Khloé isn’t exactly a regular at the Met Gala, so it’s not a huge shock that she didn’t attend. But she did show up in 2022, officially shutting down persistent false rumors that she was banned.

Back in 2021, Khloé actually hit back at said rumors, responding to a fan who asked, “Khloé now that you are online please tell of [sic] the Met Gala rumors are true because I’ll burn that dinosaur’s bones @khloekardashian please clarify thank u,” with “Absolutely NOT true.”

Khloé spoke about her decision to attend the event for the first time during The Kardashians, saying, “I have been invited in the past. I just opted not to go. I’m not big on red carpets. I think I’ve made that very clear.”

Khloé’s sister Kim Kardashian also weighed in, saying, “Khloé has always been really nervous to go to the Met. So I was like, ‘You’re gonna look amazing. You’re gonna use my glam. We’re gonna get ready together. We’re gonna make this the best experience ever.’”

Kim added that if Khloé attended the gala everyone would stop speculating that she’d been banned and that showing up would say, “Fuck you. I’m invited to the Met, dude, like, I’m going.’”

Seems like Khloé got her point across by going once, so maybe she simply doesn’t feel the need to go for round two!
