[Paparazzo] Jennie, over the shoulder.

[paparazzi screaming]

Hi, Vogue this is Jennie.

I'm in New York for the Met Gala.

Come get ready with me.

[upbeat music]

It's my first time going to the Met,

and I'm excited and nervous.

I've been on tour for the past

like six months I think already.

And the challenge that we had to go through

was headlining Coachella in between our tour

because we would go from doing shows to rehearsals

in between all, everything that was happening.

But I mean, it was an exciting dream come truth experience.

[upbeat music]

So I'm done with my hair and makeup now.

For my makeup, we wanted to do this different shades of pink

and mixture of different color.

We have sparkly happening in my eye,

and we wanted to keep the rest of my face little matte.

And the inspiration for my hair was,

we wanted to bring a little bit of our Korean culture

and this braided hair reminded us

of a Korean [speaks in Korean] look.

And of course, the Camellia for Karl and the classic Chanel.

[upbeat music]

I'm wearing a very classic, timeless white mini dress today,

and I'm gonna go and put it on right now.

[upbeat music]

So this is my final look for my first ever Met Gala.

I'm so happy to see how everything came out with my gloves,

and the Camellias, and everything.

And I think I'm a little late so I gotta go,

but thank you for watching.

Bye, Vogue.

[upbeat music]

[Staff] Come on, let's go.
