Hip Hop Entertainment News: Cardi B Says Her 2019 Met Gala Gown Was Inspired By Feminism
Cardi B, 26, was hailed as being one of the best dressed celebs at the 2019 Met Gala in New York. The Bronx rapper hit the red carpet rocking a maroon Thom Browne gown that featured a jeweled headpiece, a shapely bodice, and a show-stopping cascading feathery train. When quizzed by Liza Koshy in an interview for Vogue, Cardi said her gown was inspired by feminism. She said:
“The inspiration behind it was feminism.”
“This reflects the woman’s body. You got your little boobies, va-jay-jay, and your…if you see my back it’s like booty. And of course Camp [the theme of this year’s Met Gala], you know what I’m saying? We really was trying to show very elegant, extravagant, but not too Halloween-ish. Perfect dress for me.”
When asked if baby Kulture would be making a surprise appearance on the red carpet, the “Clout” rapper said:
“No, but you want to know what? I was supposed to be up at six in the morning to fit my headpiece so they could customize it. And I’m like, I arrived home at three in the morning, you know what, I’m gonna take a two-hour nap, but she kept me up and I’m like, aw crap.”
Cardi also shut down any chance of her being the culture when told she was by Liza. However, she explained what “culture” means to her. She stated:
“The culture is within, the culture’s in the hood. The culture’s where you from.”
The female rapper also made it clear that although “culture” and “camp” are similar, they’re not the same. She explained:
“Camp is more of being yourself. Being extravagant. You don’t care if nobody judge you or not. It’s you. It’s too much.”
