Even though Rihanna did not attend last night’s Met Gala, her presence was still felt.
For, she was immortalized with a marble statue at the event.
More details below…
Shared in a video on Vogue‘s Instagram account, the statue was unveiled at the New York Metropolitan Museum of Art. Moreover, the statue comes after the ‘Needed Me’ singer graced this month’s cover of Vogue (as we reported here).
The caption for the video, said:
“The statue of ‘Eirene (The Personification of Peace)’ is usually the highest-profile marble goddess @themetmuseum Greco-Roman galleries. But now we’ve got @badgalriri, straight off this month’s Vogue cover.”
Rihanna saw the statue and shared the video along with the caption:
“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!”

The honor of receiving the statue comes as Rihanna’s due date is allegedly getting closer.

She is an ICON and shuts down the Met every time she attends.
This is amazing!!
She is the queen of the met gala
Its because of Rihanna people knew what the met gala was.
She made the event what it is today.
In future I can see them doing a theme about Rihanna and her fashion
Fashion is one category Rihanna beats beyonce in.
What makes her special? Diva had seen pregnant h o e s all the time💅🏾
That thing looks pretty scary imo
