Zohran Mamdani

Mamdani confirmed last month that he and his wife, Rama Duwaji, would not attend the annual fundraising event.

Mamdani quoted Val Kilmer's character from the 1995 Michael Mann classic.

The New York City mayor started rapping in high school, and he apparently still makes a few bucks from his skills on the mic.

Mamdani has “love” for the “incredible museum,” but is keeping his focus on boosting affordability for New Yorkers.
