Joan Collins is still waiting for an apology from Harry Styles.
The “Dynasty” icon, 90, recalled how the former One Direction frontman, 29, blocked her view at the 2019 Met Gala when Cher was performing.
Collins penned in her new memoir, “Behind the Shoulder Pads: Tales I Tell My Friends,” how she attended the fashion’s biggest night out for the first time and Styles obscured her view when Cher, 77, was singing her hit “Believe” in the Temple of Dendur.
The “Watermelon Sugar” crooner apparently jumped on the tables in front of Collins during the “Moonstruck” star’s set.
“The sophisticated crowd went mad for her, standing up whooping and cheering,” Collins wrote about how excited the audience was to hear Cher sing.
“Bette Midler, wearing a top hat and tailcoat in glittery black sequins, came to our table and boogied with Julianne Moore, and I glimpsed Gwyneth Paltrow and Katie Holmes doing the same.”
Once Cher did an outfit change to sing, Styles eclipsed Collins’ field of vision.
The “Dynasty” diva explained: “Cher left after her first number then came back wearing her original Bob Mackie-style sleek black embroidered bodysuit and a massive black curly wig to sing ‘Believe.’ ”
She added: “Harry Styles jumped on the table in front of us, obscuring our view, and took no notice of our entreaties to ‘get down, we can’t see.’ “
Despite her disappointment over not being able to see the “If I Could Turn Back Time” singer, Collins still enjoyed the event.
“I loved my first Met Ball, and I would certainly go again in a heartbeat — although at $30,000 a seat, I’ll wait to be invited!” she joked.
Elsewhere in her book, the British star looked back on playing Evie Gallant and Bubbles McGee in Season 8 of the FX series “American Horror Story: Apocalypse” alongside Evan Peters.
In the show, Peters’ character Malcolm Gallant kills Evie “in the most horrible way.”
“I wasn’t looking forward to this so I went on set a couple of days before we were to shoot it to find out how it was to be staged,” she recounted.
She noted that the scene was “terrifying” to film but she was ready for it. Collins pointed out that she “wasn’t too worried” about shooting as the death scene was very realistic.
She had positioned herself underneath a 75-pound fake body that was dressed to match Evie’s outfit.
“It was hot, heavy, and uncomfortable as the crew adjusted my own head to fit on top of the body,” Collins said.
The “The Cartier Affair” actress then gushed over the “Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story,” actor, 36, saying that he is a “true apostle of method acting.”
