Selfies, belfies, shoefies, why-take-a-fie and all other kinds of '-fies' are strictly banned by the hostess of the Met Gala, Anna Wintour, as she hates this new "senseless" trend.

Anna Wintour, formidable Vogue editor-in-chief, has stated that she hates 'selfies', but the ban may actually be because Vogue are making a documentary about the event, which means that she wants everything to be kept under wraps until the documentary is released.

Guests have already received notices that clearly forbid the use of phones for photography and social media inside the gala, twitter and instagram are banned as well.
