Alysa Liu’s Met Gala debut turned into an instant shock when a protester tried to abruptly enter the red carpet arena at the exact moment when Liu started posing for the cameras. The Olympic figure skater was seen donning custom attire and waving to the public when the incident took place, prompting a decisive security action.
The 2026 Met Gala has once again stunned the fashion world with its exclusive display of boldness, power, and symbolic grit that turned the evening into a statement that reads “greatness.” Celebrities and athletes from around the world came in with a motto that would tell the world what their discipline looks like when it’s curated with high-fashion art.
Among the many appearances, Alysa Liu made her Met Gala debut with a custom Louis Vuitton-made high-low gown, sparking her inner figure skating showmanship with a dissected design.
As the Olympian smiled across the aisle for pictures and memories, the atmosphere could temporarily become gloomy with a security breach as a man reportedly tried to jump the fence that was facing right at the Olympian. The security, however, quickly jumped into action and, after a brief scuffle, managed to neutralize the intruder, helping the figure skater to continue with her routine.
Liu’s reaction briefly shifted to a grim look as she witnessed the chaotic scene just feet away. Moments later, however, she quickly regained her composure and her signature smile, and started walking away from the scene while waving back at her fans.
