Fashion's biggest night, The Met Gala seems incomplete without Queen Rihanna. The singer-entrepreneur gave this year's gala a miss as she was reportedly resting at home.

Rihanna was reportedly going to attend but had to cancel at the last moment. Reason? The singer is down with the flu. 

A source close to Riri told People that the singer and her partner A$AP Rocky had plans to attend the annual gala but had to cancel owing to bad health. 

In past years, Rihanna, 36, and partner A$AP Rocky, 35, have made some heads turn with their fashionable appearances at the Met Gala.

The couple has had a reputation for arriving at the gala each year fashionably late. In 2021, they made their appearance on the red carpet at 10 pm. They did the same in 2023, which means showing up after call time has become somewhat of a tradition for the music superstars.
