Rihanna’s Met Gala 2024, we barely knew ye. According to People,
the Queen of the Met is skipping this year’s red carpet for an unexpected and totally bummer reason: She has the flu.
A source told the magazine exclusively that she cancelled last-minute due to her illness but had been planning to attend with her partner, A$AP Rocky.
As they noted, the star had even hinted what her look was going to be, saying it was “real simple.”
And now we may never know what it looked like! Truly tragic!
RiRi does always make a, let’s just say, fashionably late entrance to the gala, though. So maybe she’s rallied and is on her way? We can dare to dream?
Sigh, okay. We definitely don’t want her there if she’s not feeling her best.She has two kids to raise and an empire to run, after all. She needs her rest.
Let’s console ourselves with a walk down memoRIH lane.
In case you aren’t familiar with the lore surrounding RiRi and the Met, just know that she is known for two things at fashion’s biggest night: She always slays, and she is never on time.
But all the better to make an entrance, right? As she did last year, when she showed up in Valentino ensconced in a cocoon of white rosettes, complete with cat-eye sunglasses.
Rihanna’s list of Met slay-age is too long to fully list here, but we are partial to her 2017 gown by Comme des Garçons that looked like a literal work of art, with the glam to match.
She may be perhaps best known, though, for her 2018 Margiela look, a.k.a. the Sexy Pope.
