By The Cut

Photographer Jason Kempin captured celebrities between photo takes on the Met Gala red carpet last night, roaming the museum’s crowded steps to shoot candid moments amid the madness. His dramatic shots are often more authentic than the red-carpet photos typically seen after the event, like one shot of a group of people surrounding Nicki Minaj, or another of Jennifer Lopez laughing with Alex Rodriguez.
