Here ye, here ye! The queen of the Met Gala, or should we say ~The Pope~, is back like the fashion gala never left! Listen and hear me clearly, whenever Rihanna sets foot on the scene of this iconic event, she shuts it all. the. way. down! This year RihRih did only what she can do: make a sleeping back look bomb as hell.
I mean, just look:

Fans felt the exact same way, especially after waiting for her arrival and starting worry she wasn’t coming.
Rihanna didn’t attend the 2019 Met Gala (the latest one) since she was busy handling ~international business~ for her makeup brand Fenty Beauty. Rumors about Rihanna’s return to this year’s Met Gala began to fly off the charts when the mogul announced on her Instagram Story that she was hosting the event’s annual after party.
Needless to say fans have high expectations for Rihanna at the ball, so when the news hit, they were overcome with speculation and joy, and ofc, pleas to be invited, bc duh.
