It reminds me of a handmaiden. (chuckles)
Like, he should be churning butter, but for someone's funeral.
- If there was something above super, that's where she would be,
but I'm putting her there with all the other--
she'll be in good company.
♪ (industrial intro) ♪
- (FBE) So today, we're combining two of the most viral things
on the internet this week: the 2019 Met Gala...
- Ooh! Yes! - (FBE) ...and tier lists.
- Okay I know the Met Gala. - Never heard of tier lists.
- People are doing the food ones a lot.
I've seen those, yeah.
- (FBE) We'll tell you more about the tier trend in a second,
but the Met Gala is an annual benefit gala
for The Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute,
and it's very well-known for its crazy fashion.
And this year's theme for this event was camp.
- Camp? - (FBE) Camp. Not camp
like camping, but just camp, like over the top.
- Over the top. - (FBE) Exactly.
- But that's what the thing is every year.
- (FBE) According to Harper's Bazaar, camp is defined as the art
of being extra. - Yes. Ah, camp to me
is about total nonconformity. It's about being a bigger,
better, crazier, weirder version of yourself.
- (FBE) Using the tier system, you're going to be ranking
the best and the worst fashions from this ear's event.
- Oh my goodness. Yay!
- (FBE) So, first up is Zendaya in her transforming Cinderella outfit,
which was one of the most talked-about looks online.
- She was Cinderella. That's pretty cool.
Whoa! Oh, it lights up. - Makes the dress light up?
Oh, that's cool! I don't know.
I could see someone doing that for Halloween.
- I'm impressed with whoever put it together.
But, I mean, it's not-- I don't think it's very innovative.
- It's very pretty, and I really liked her outfit,
but I don't think it fits. I don't think she stands out
as fitting the theme. - The fact that they had
every single detail down to the glass slipper was perfect.
- (FBE) Now, it's time to place it on your tier list.
For some quick background, this has been something
that's been making the rounds for a while but, recently blew up
on YouTube specifically when the creator idubbbz
uploaded a video using the tiers to rank fast food chains.
- Oh, really? - The tier thing is originally
like a a competitive fighting game thing,
where people will place characters in those tiers.
And now, it's just being used for everything.
- (FBE) There are a few different versions,
but we'll be rating these looks from S, being the highest rank
for super, going through A, B, C, D, E and ending at F
as the lowest rank. So, where does Zendaya rank
on your list? - All right. I'll give her a C.
- It was a very cool dress. Lit up, you know?
So, there was a factor to that. So, we're gonna place her at B.
- I'm gonna put Zendaya at A. - An A for the execution.
- She's gonna get the A, because she is absolutely amazing.
- I'll do a B for its-- I like the fact that it lights up.
- I'm gonna give it a C, because I'm just gonna go middle,
because I don't think she fits the theme.
- It's over the top, but still almost safe
in the over-the-top category. D, I think.
- The top position just because she put a lot of thought
into every single movement, every single action
that she made on the carpet.
- (FBE) Here's the next photo. - Hm, Katy Perry. Oh my gosh.
Give me a little Lumiere, Beauty and the Beast kind of thing.
- She looks like a Pokemon. (laughs) - This dress follows camp pretty well.
It's over the top. It's crazy.
She looks like a chandelier, like she could hang
over a dinner table maybe. - This embodies, I believe,
the theme. She is the center of the room
as a chandelier.
- (FBE) What tier would you rank her in?
- Well, she's a frickin' chandelier, so she's obviously gonna be super.
- An E. I do like the dress.
She should've just wore the dress and left the chandelier out of it.
- I'm gonna be nice, and I'm gonna give her the B slot,
because that is very camp. - I'm gonna put her in a B,
because I actually don't really love the outfit,
but I think it fits the theme better. - I'm pointing this in super, bro.
This embodies the over-the-topness. - I'm putting her in the F tier.
As far as my definition of camp... it didn't go.
- (FBE) With these rankings, you can move 'em around at any point,
and they can all be supers or all Fs based on your opinion.
So, feel free to place them... - (gasps) They can? (gasps)
I thought I was trying to-- ohhh. In that case-- if that's the case,
we gon' do some changes.
- (FBE) This was Lupita Nyong'o's outfit by Versace.
- Damn. Man, this is fly. - Oh my gosh.
I love all the like picks she has in her hair.
That's super cool, her makeup, her purse.
- Yeah, that's cool. It's like a mix between culture and fashion.
- This is another great example for camp.
It's not necessarily my favorite. I feel like it's a little bit
all over the place. - I hate this. (laughs)
She looks... like a unicorn hummingbird.
I'm not really sure. - Wow, this is straight-up a look.
And I feel like this is the most campy I've s--
the most in-theme outfit that I've seen so far.
- (FBE) What tier do you think this should go in?
- I think her and Zendaya are gonna be homies in my in my tier system,
- I'm gonna go ahead and put her in F just 'cause she's been
my least favorite so far. - The B tier.
I personally was a fan. Just like a very colorful butterfly.
- It'd probably be an A, but I'll give her a B,
'cause I'm not into the-- I don't think she needed
all those picks in her head like that.
I just think it's kind of-- I just think it's silly.
- I'm gonna give her a C. We love Versace.
We love Lupita Nyong'o, brilliant actress,
but not exactly what I wanted. Still on the level of camp.
- I'm gonna put this into super also. This is just over the top.
It's cool to look at.
- (FBE) So, as we mentioned, this tier system has been
around on YouTube. It's blown up after that idubbbz,
you know, fast food video. Since then, there have been
many different versions online, even some ranking other rank videos.
- Oh my gosh! (laughs) Well, of course!
- (FBE) Why is this type of tiering content something that
has become so popular? - 'Cause everybody loves
to be critical. (chuckles) It's like the most fun thing.
You can be critical of criticism. - It's fun to put things
in lists, and this is a little different
than one through ten. - Everyone loves everyone's opinion.
And to be honest with you, everyone wants to get the tea
on what you thought about whatever topic.
- (FBE) Next is Harry Styles. - Ohhh, okay. That's nice.
That's different. - Oh, I think I saw this.
I really don't like this either. - Ohh, wow.
He looks like a vampire. I appreciate the androgyny
that he's going for here. - It reminds me of a handmaiden.
Like, he should be churning butter, but for someone's funeral.
- I love that so many men now more and more,
they're branching out on the carpet, and they're wearing colors
and frills and floral patterns. Clothing is starting to become
more gender neutral, and I think everyone can
just wear whatever they want now. - I'm a big fan of that look.
I'm actually gonna put A rank, man.
That was a good look. - Oh, he's super.
He's bomb.com. - Harry Styles deserves an A
just because of the way he executed that outfit
and still causing so much noise. - I'm gonna put Harry Styles at B.
It's so bold for a guy. It's sheer. It's see-through.
It has frills. I love it.
- Oh, that's Jared Leto. - (FBE) Mm-hmm.
- He's carrying his own head. I'm confused.
- I actually kinda like it. I like the red dress.
I like that he's basically in drag. - This is awesome.
I know what-- they're pushing the lines of gender with the event,
and I like that, and it's cool.
- I feel like it is out there, but it could have done a lot more.
- You're the Joker, bro. Dye your hair green.
Wear some contacts. Give me a fantasy
a little bit more than Jared Leto and your [bleep] twin
that you ate in the womb on the side of your hip.
- I'm gonna have to place him in D tier.
It's not my favorite look. It didn't impress me as much
as the other ones. - I'm gonna give him a B.
I like the fact that he's in a dress, and I'm a big Jared Leto fan.
- Right under Harry. I want a little bit more originality.
- I'm definitely gonna put him in super, because I just felt
like his outfit, even though it's kind of creepy,
it's still kind of light-hearted. - I'm gonna put him at B.
It's courageous, and it implies that, you know,
he's not afraid to wear a dress and still feel like a man.
I love that.
- (FBE) Here is Cardi B's red ruby outfit.
In an interview on the red carpet,
she said that the two ruby nipple covers on her dress
are worth $250,000, and she got over 10 people
to carry her train. - She had 10 whole people?
Wow. that is quite impressive. - Wow, that's a lot of money.
That's insane. But I mean, it's beautiful,
'cause you'd be surprised. Yeah, that's beautiful.
That's definitely worth it. - It's about being the biggest,
best bitch you can be, like showing up with your crew,
you know, working it. - Dude, this has to be super.
- I think she looks really beautiful, so I think I'm gonna give her
a super also. - All day, super. Super all day,
every day. - I'll give her the S-rank tier.
It's fire. That's amazing.
- I'm definitely gonna put that at super,
and I wanna say that's gonna be my only super.
She absolutely killed it. - She goes to super
just for the sheer fact that it took a team to wear that outfit.
- (FBE) This was Billy Porter, who made a grand entrance to the gala.
- Ohhhh. I stan. I love this.
- Whoa! Whoa. That's a lot of gold.
- Girl! Really? With the frickin-- oh, yeah, yeah.
- Wow. This is the ultimate serve. He's being carried in!
- This is another great example of camp.
It's a performance, it is a show, and it's an iconic moment.
- Think I'm gonna place it in B tier. - Billy Porter's Egyptian thing
will probably have to go up with the super as well.
- I thought Cardi B was gonna be the only super,
but I'm gonna go ahead and put that one at super, too,
just because it's so-- there's so much.
- Let's give him an S. He deserves that.
He's up there with Cardi. That's definitely one of
the better ones for sure. - I wanna put him at the same level
as Katy Perry, who I actually think--
I will shift them both up to As, because I think they both--
they're very similar in that just, like, over-the-top weird way.
- Man, I'm gonna have to drop someone from super, man.
It just-- 'cause once you put him at super, it's hard to really be like,
you know, they're on the same level.
- (FBE) Up next is Ezra Miller. - Insane. Insane.
Crazy. So cool. - Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
I had to say whoa for as many times as I saw eyes.
That was a lot. - I like the multi eyes.
I don't necessarily think it was my favorite,
but I appreciate what he was doing. I like that he decided
to not just come in a basic dress. - I love seeing stuff like this,
because I love trying to focus in on what his actual features are.
- He's got to be in the S category, superior.
- I didn't think I was gonna give two out,
but I'm placing Ezra Miller at S rank, man.
- Ooh, I'm gonna place that with Harry Styles.
I'm gonna do D. - I give him an A for--
that's very creative, and no one else is gonna look
like this at the Met Gala. - Ezra's gonna definitely go
before Jared Leto, because at least he did something
other than a [bleep] matching head. - Super. Those eyes are amazing.
They look so real. - He's one of my supers for sure.
It's awesome, and it's inspiring.
You know, I love fashion myself. I love makeup myself.
So, I get inspired all the time. And it's just a nice escape, really.
- (FBE) Lastly, we have Lady Gaga, who stunned the crowd
with four different outfits... - Of course should would.
- (FBE) ...all revealed on the red carpet.
- Was it just all layered? - Was it underneath, drag queen style?
That's awesome. - Lady Gaga brought
four outfits, dude and changed within 15 minutes.
Impressive. - Uhhhhh...
This is just peeling off clothes. That's it to me.
- She's very pretty, but I just don't think
she fits the theme at all. - This is my reaction.
She started off as a lady, and she stripped down
to the original Gaga that we all fell in love with.
It was a story. - I'm gonna put her
next to Jared Leto. - I'm not too into the pink dress.
But I do like the makeup. I'll give her a B.
I'm gonna put her in with Zendaya because of the same reason.
I thought they both looked very beautiful,
but I didn't think they fit the theme. - She's gonna go with awesome.
I like all her little details, and I like the eyelashes.
The eyelashes are definitely the most impressive part.
- If there was something above super, that's where she would be,
but I'm putting her there with all the other--
she'll be in good company in super for sure.
- I mean, she's got to be up there in the S category.
She brought four looks. Everybody just brought one look.
So, she's the queen for real. - I don't think anyone on this list
did horrible, but some people just absolutely killed it.
And also, my personal preference, some of them just look really awesome.
