Jamie McCarthy/Getty ImagesIn a 2013 interview with USA Today, Gwyneth Paltrow vowed that she wouldn't return to the Met Gala after that year's event. She posted an Instagram of herself at her first Met Gala in 1995 with the hashtag "#fullcirclemomentcomingup" before attending the event. It's unclear exactly what made her return, but in 2017, she was also partnering up with Anna Wintour — who chaired the Met Gala for several years — for a quarterly print version of her Goop website.
