8 Best Instagrams From Vanity Fair’s White House Correspondents’ Dinner After-Party
Once a year, journalists, politicians and Hollywood elite come together to rub shoulders at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, alternately dubbed the “Nerd Prom.” But this year, the guest list had a new addition: social media stars.
Millennial multitaskers famous for their YouTube videos, Instagram posts, snaps, tweets and Vines including Tyler Oakley, Bethany Mota, Marcus Johns, Nash Grier and Jerome Jarre made this the most social guest list yet. And nowhere was the influence of social media more obvious than at the Vanity Fair after-party.
Vanity Fair teamed up with Instagram and portrait photographer Jonas Fredwall Karlsson to celebrate 2015’s Vanity Fair/Bloomberg White House Correspondents’ Dinner Party with an Instagram Portrait Studio. From headliner Cecily Strong to Ava DuVernay and Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, celebrities and politicians posed for party pics. The instant art, captured at the French Ambassador’s residence immediately following the WHCD, was then uploaded to Vanity Fair’s account on the mobile app.
