Kate Moss Lights Up Before Met Gala Arrival

 enjoyed a post-flight smoke and vape as she landed at JFK Airport in New York just hours before fashion's biggest night of the year, the Met Gala.

The supermodel, 52, had the giggles as she collected her luggage and headed outside of the airport to light a cigarette.

The giddy runway star showed off her natural complexion as she went makeup free for the flight to the States. 

Kate cut a smart figure in a black blazer which she layered over a matching blouse and wide legged trousers. 

The mother-of-one tied a black scarf around her neck and accessorised with several gold necklaces. 

Styling her long blonde tresses in curls, Kate looked in good spirits as she pushed her luggage, a large suitcase and two Louis Vuitton leather duffle bags on a trolley. 

She was spotted checking her phone and vaping outside the arrivals terminal before smoking a cigarette. 

Kate is reportedly set to walk the star-studded red carpet at the Met Gala this evening which has faced widespread backlash as Jeff Bezos and will serve as honorary co-chairs.

'Bella Hadid liked a video saying it doesn't make sense to wear a pin that says "ICE out" and still attend the Met Gala, since this year's event is sponsored by Jeff Bezos. This lowers our chances of seeing her on the carpet on Monday!'

Actress Taraji P Henson also agreed with the video, writing in the comments: 'I am so confused by some ppl that are going. I am just like WTF ARE WE DOING!?!?!?!'

This year's gala has faced mass scrutiny following the announcement that Amazon founder Jeff and his wife, Lauren Sanchez Bezos, would serve as lead sponsors and honorary chairmen, leading to the stars' acts of defiance.

As well as his ICE affiliation, Amazon's alleged treatment of its workforce has also caused issues, with activist group Everyone Hates Elon displaying posters around New York reading: 'The Bezos Met Gala: Brought to you by worker exploitation.'
