Lara Trump Calls Met Gala a 'Freak Show' While Mar-a-Lago Hosts Bizarre Furry Parties

Lara Trump, known for her role as a Fox News host, is stirring the pot again. This time, she’s taking aim at the Met Gala, labeling it a “freak show.” Ironically, her own fashion choices and the eccentric gatherings at Mar-a-Lago might just make her the last person to throw stones.

During an appearance on Laura Ingraham’s show, Lara lamented, “At one time, the Met Gala was a very elegant and regal affair... It’s kind of devolved into a bit of a freak show.” But let’s not forget, this is the same woman who has never graced the event with her presence—she quipped that her family’s invitations must have gotten lost in the mail.

Writer Paul Rudnick didn’t hold back on social media, pointing out the irony of Lara’s comments. He tweeted, “On Fox, Lara Trump condemned the Met Ball as a ‘freak show,’ unlike her quiet dignity at Mar-a-Lago,” alongside a snapshot of her and Eric Trump decked out in sequins and feathers. Ouch!

“She threw shade on the Met Gala because she wasn’t invited,” one observer noted, highlighting the hypocrisy in her critique.

Meanwhile, Mar-a-Lago has been no stranger to its own peculiar parties. Just this past January, the resort hosted a “furry” themed bash inspired by Marie Antoinette. Attendees donned full furry dog costumes while mingling in high-society attire, leading many to label the event as “weird” and “creepy.”

In addition to these quirky gatherings, Mar-a-Lago also hosted the American Humane Society’s 15th Annual Hero Dog Awards Gala. This event raised funds for canines serving law enforcement and first responders, featuring luxury cocktails, dinner, and professional dancers. But let’s be real—who can forget those furry costumes?

Lara Trump, 43, is not just a TV personality; she’s also the former co-chair of the Republican National Committee and married to Eric Trump, Donald's third son. With all this in mind, it’s hard to take her critiques of high fashion seriously when her own backyard is hosting such outlandish affairs.
