All the stars walked the 2016 Met Gala's multicolored red carpet, but they really struck their best poses inside Vogue's Manus x Machina Experience booth.

Directed by Gordon von Steiner, the videos showed a different side of the attendees, who were able to get down in their glamorous ensembles.

Host Anna Wintour kicked off the fun by standing in the fluorescently lit booth while wearing her signature sunglasses. As intimidating as ever, Vogue's Editor-in-Chief stares deadpan into the camera.

Oscar winner Alicia Vikander loosened up in the experience machine, dancing and twirling to an electronic beat. Her short Louis Vuitton dress definitely gave her the freedom to bust a move! Meanwhile Kendall Jenner stuck to what she knows best—strutting her stuff on a catwalk! During her time in the Manus x Machina machine, Kendall channeled the runway and life on set of a photo shoot.

Jaden Smith and Willow Smith, donning similar all-black outfits, danced their hearts out, channeling some of their dad's, Will Smith's, best moves. Like father like son (and daughter!). Selena Gomez, wearing Louis Vuitton, twirled and made funny gestures while hanging out inside the booth.

As for Adriana Lima, we'll just let the caption do the talking. "This is how a supermodel does the #ManusxMachina Experience.

Balmain models for the evening, Kim Kardashian and Kanye West, looked fierce while posing for von Steiner. But all eyes were really on Kim, who was the main focus of this installment of the video series. These weren't the only two members of the Balmain Army, though!

Cindy Crawford, Joan Smalls, Doutzen Kroes, Jourdan Dunn and Alessandra Ambrosio, all wearing Balmain, starred in their own video and proved that they are supermodels for a reason.

But the true star of this series might have been Queen Blake Lively. All hail, Blake! The pregnant star looked absolutely stunning in her pink and red floral Burberry design that lit up in certain areas. With her back to the camera, she turned her head over her shoulder to give a brief, seductive stare into the camera.

Ever the legendary performer, Madonna broke it down inside the machine while wearing her strappy Givenchy design. While everyone had some fun with the interactive experience machine, Mary-Kate Olsen and Ashley Olsen took it very seriously. The two twins stared at each other before turning their heads directly toward the camera. Otherwise, they didn't move a muscle.
