The 2025 Met Gala Celebrating “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style” - Arrivals

André 3000 took advantage of his appearance on the steps of last night’s Met Gala to release and promote his latest experimental jazz record,7 piano sketches. While most commentators focused on his faithful recreation of the album art by wearing a three-quarter-scale baby-grand piano on his back, I couldn’t help but notice the other accessory in his right hand. The argyle flex pattern and wide gray drawstring made it unmistakably a 2025 Glad Heavy Duty ForceFlex. Keen observers will note that this is the Strategist’s pick forbest extra-tough trash bags, in which outdoor-cleaning expert Raul Mercado explains that they’ll never leak or break “as long as you don’t throw away a bag of bricks.” Thankfully for Mr. 3000, he has no bricks in his catalogue in need of disposal.
