Cardi B caused a stir at the Met Gala 2024 when she revealed her original plan to wear prosthetics to transform into an elderly woman for the event. The rapper shared a behind-the-scenes look at her Met Gala prep on TikTok, showing makeup artist applying wrinkled skin to her arms and hands. However, Cardi B ultimately decided against the prosthetics, expressing concerns about how the pictures would turn out.

Her dress, designed by Windowsen, was described as a beautiful piece resembling a black rose. Despite the gown's beauty, Cardi B found it extremely heavy and mentioned that she would have taken it off right away. She even expressed disappointment that the dress had to be cut shorter, as it was originally intended to be even larger.

During a Vogue interview, Cardi B faced criticism for forgetting the name of the designer, Sensen Lii, and referring to him as 'Asian and everything.' She later defended herself, explaining that she struggled with pronouncing the designer's name due to its complexity.

While Cardi B's Met Gala appearance sparked mixed reactions, her creative approach to fashion and willingness to push boundaries were evident throughout the event. Despite the last-minute change in plans, Cardi B's bold and unconventional style continues to captivate audiences and keep her in the spotlight.
