Today in Madonna History: May 2, 2017

On May 2 2017, Madonna was featured on the Evening Standard with the headline: Met Gala 2017: Sarah Paulson fangirls over Madonna as she photobombs her on the red carpet.  

Here’s a bit more from the article:

The US actress, 42, fangirled over the Queen of Pop after she spotted her on the red carpet at New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute.

Paulson was pictured pointing with her mouth agape as she photobombed Madonna.

The pair later fooled around in front of photographers as Paulson offered to position Madonna’s Moschino camo gown.

The moment didn’t go unnoticed on Twitter as users praised Paulson’s “priceless” reaction and hailed them as the “greatest duo of all time”.

Madonna made sure to stand out with her outfit which she accessorised with necklaces, a gold grill and a hip flask.

Speaking about her dress, she told Entertainment Tonight: “We knew we wanted to go with camouflage from the very start. We started with the flak jacket, and then we worked our way down. So, you know, we’re ready. We’re ready to go to fashion war.”

“It’s going to be a fun night. As long as I drink the rest of my canteen.”
