The Met Gala has reportedly already rescinded one person’s invitation… because a model claimed he was just fired from his show there – after stealing Kylie Jenneris the center of attention.
Here’s the deal… Eugênio Casnighi — who says he’s a model in his TikTok bio — took to the popular social media site on Friday afternoon claiming the world-famous event fired him shortly before Monday’s gala.

The way Eugenio tells it… he’s worked at the Met Gala for the past two years and was supposed to work this year – only to be fired at the last minute.
Casnighi says they hire models to basically walk around with celebrities and wait on them during the party… standing next to them, holding bags, helping them walk – the whole shebang.
By the way, this also helps models because they can get noticed by industry people. Unfortunately, Eugenio says it went too viral last year.
EC says he ended up in the background of some photos — like the one above — and the Met Gala and the company he worked for gave him the axe… claiming he made the event about himself.
By the way, Eugenio is certainly not saying that Kylie complained and got him fired. In fact, he posted another clip where he gushed about KJ – saying that she chatted with him a little during the night and treated him kindly.
Jenner is a Met Gala regular… making her debut in 2016. From what we know, she’ll be back this year, too — although it looks like she might have a different role model to help her.
We reached out to Kylie’s team and the Met Gala… so far, no response.
