Rev. James Martin, a Jesuit priest, and author was one of several Catholic leaders who attended this year’s Met Gala which exhibited “Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination”
The Catholic priest who turned heads at The Metropolitan Museum of Art on Monday in New York, has revealed some of the remarks he got from some female celebrities about the priestly clothes he was wearing.
According to him, he was told he was the “best-dressed dude here, bro,” while another said, ” he dressed up as a sexy priest.”
Here is what he wrote on Twitter: “Actually said to me at the #MetGala tonight: ‘I love your costume.’ ‘Is that, like, for real?’ ‘Funky outfit!'” the priest tweeted later. “‘You’re the best-dressed dude here, bro.’ (High fives me.) ‘You look just like the real thing.’ And, truly: ‘I love that you got dressed up as a sexy priest.'”
“Those are verbatim,” Martin added.
