This year’s Met Gala is likely to experience a major shake up as the are wild speculations that Rihanna is pushing to get the Kardashian-Jenner clan off the guests list. The Iconic singer is allegedly using her partner ASAP Rocky’s nomination on the Met Gala planning committee to ban the family’s regular appearance.
But is it possible and easy? And why is Rihanna of all people conceiving such ideas? Stay with me and let’s get to know the reason for this.
The Barbados rock queen and fashion mogul is definitely not one to mess with. Trust Rihanna to hunt you for ages if you step on her toes.
It dates back to Kim Kardashian marriage to Kanye West. Kim made several attempts to befriend Rihanna but her gestures all met resistance. Well, Rihanna has particularly had a feud with Kendall Jenner.
After Rihanna’s bitter breakup with Chris Brown owed to assault on her in 2009, Kendall was seen supporting Chis Brown publicly. This move aroused Rihanna’s resentment towards her. Also, in 2013 when Kendall was still a teenager, she attended one of Rihanna’s concerts, where she tweeted about her expectation of one of Rihanna’s songs and exclaimed sadness if it was not sung.
As harmless as the tweet was Rihanna didn’t take it lightly. Tweeting back, she said “well, don’t come”, publicly jamming Kendall. The tweet was seen a straight boundary being set by the singer. The internet picked it up and made a fuss about it.
Fast forward to 2017, Kendall briefly dated ASAP Rocky who was just friends with Rihanna at the time. Speculations has it that Rihanna felt territorial about this. And now that the two are together and share two kids, Rihanna has more reason to deepen her resentment towards Kendall Jenner.
With Rihanna and Rocky’s presence in the inner circle of the Met Gala, it is likely to two will have an influence on the guest list. And will the Kardashian-Jenner clan be brushed aside as rumours have it? Will any other prominent figures be omitted as well? If so, will Rihanna be the real influence in the decision or this is just another instance of sparking unrelated gossip on the internet?
