Pop sensation Rihanna, who is expecting her first child with rapper-boyfriend A$AP Rocky, could not attend the Met Gala this year but she still managed to steal the show at the fashion’s biggest night.
The Metropolitan Museum of Art apparently paid a special tribute to Rihanna.
The singer took to Twitter and thanked the museum and Vogue magazine for paying her a historic tribute. She posted a glimpse of her statue in which she is seen flaunting her baby bump.
“Shut down the met in marble! what’s more gilded than that? Lol! Thank you for this historic tribute! y’all bad for this one,” she wrote.

The statue is straight off the cover photoshoot she did for Vogue magazine. The Metropolitan Museum of Art, however, has not posted anything regarding the statue tribute yet.
Rihanna, in the past, has served some of the most memorable and striking looks at the Met Gala red carpet. She could not attend the Met Gala this year due to her pregnancy.
Rihanna and A$AP Rocky hosted a rave-themed baby shower last week. It was an intimate affair which was held at a studio in Los Angeles.
