Superheroes, super-celebs taking over Met Museum

superheromet2.jpgThe Metropolitan Museum of Art on Wednesday will open "Superheroes: Fashion and Fantasy" but tonight, the museum is all about the red carpet as a black-tie, celebrity gala will fete the fashions.

For tonight, the museum's main information desk has been replaces by three superhero statues that look as though they belong just down the hall in the Greek and Roman sculpture galleries.

The exhibition itself will feature costumes from "IronMan," "The Dark Knight," "Superman," "SpiderMan 3," "Wonder Woman" and "X-Men: The Last Stand." The honorary chair of tonight's gala is Giorgio Armani, with co-chairs George Clooney, Julia Roberts, and Anna Wintour.
