The Met Gala is all about the outrageous outfits. Celebrities work with designers for months trying to put together a look that wows and will fit into the theme of the gala. But once all the stars have made that long climb up the infamous stairs, that's the end of the line for us commoners. Inside, fashion's elite are not only treated to dinner, but some epic musical numbers as well.
We're not always privy to the performances unless an attendee captures a snippet on their cell phone. (Which, we're assuming, might earn them Anna Wintour's wrath.) That won't stop us from breaking down the best Met Gala musical performances of all time, though. From Madonna, who just closed out her tour with a record-breaking Rio de Janeiro show featuring over 1.6 million fans, to Rihanna and even Cher, we're talking legends giving legendary performances.
