Rihanna is in the third trimester of her pregnancy, and while she has kept it high fashion throughout with a series of eye-popping expectant mom looks that have blown up the standard maternity jeans and flowy tops staples, she did not make it to the Met Gala on Monday night
Sharing a video on Instagram along with a note, Rihanna wrote, “shut down the met in marble! what’s more gilded than that? Lol! Thank you @metmuseum and @voguemagazine for this historic tribute! y’all bad for this one!” It is not known if the statue is real indeed or just an elaborate prank, considering how the Met has not shared anything about the statue on their social media. The video seems to be just Vogue's tribute to the singer.
But her fans and followers loved the statue and showered the post with praise. A fan wrote, “Wasn’t even in attendance & still made an impact! This is so cool.” Another commented, “Making HistoRIH.” A fan also wrote, “LegendaRIH.” A comment also read, “That’s one way to do it ‼️” A person also commented, “Wowowowowowow what a Goddess!!!!!!!!!!”
The singer, who is expecting her first child with boyfriend A$AP Rocky, recently described her feelings about being a mom in the Vogue cover, in which she said, “Balance is one of my biggest challenges and always has been. And now there’s another human being coming into play, it changes what that means again. Still, I have businesses that aren’t going to run themselves. My mom handled the three of us with not even close to the amount of resources that I have, so I can absolutely do it.”
