For even the most renown name, attending the MET Gala is often an overwhelming experience. Hence, it’s little surprise that newcomer Azealia Banks was in relative awe as she arrived at one of fashion’s biggest nights.

Sporting a custom-made ensemble courtesy of Alexander Wang (who she poses with above), the ‘212’ rapper (and Lil Kim’s latest rival) told an interviewer on arrival that she was in “awe” and “just happy to be there”.

Peep another shot of Banks, who is slated to perform at the event, below…
