Cardi B brings the 2024 Met Gala red carpet to a standstill as she requires at least NINE helpers to fan out her dress’ enormous black skirt
Cardi B enjoyed the spotlight on the red carpet at the 2024 Met Gala on Monday, where she made a grand entrance in style.The 31-year-old rapper wore a stunning black gown, but it was the enormous tulle skirt that truly caught everyone’s attention.
With the skirt spreading out several feet in every direction, it required a team of nine men to arrange and fan out the dramatic fabric, ensuring her dazzling entrance was flawless.
The unfurled skirt was so large that it looked as if no other stars could pass until she made her way to the top of the steps.
Her platoon of helpers had to stick with her to hold the skirt aloft as she gingerly ascended the stairs at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
Cardi B had the red carpet all to herself temporarily when she made a grand entrance at the 2024 Met Gala on Monday

Cardi appeared to have waited toward the end of the procession of famous faces, which allowed her to take up plenty of space without inconveniencing too many others.
The hitmaker’s gown featured a rippling black bodice that covered her curvaceous figure.
It featured a V-shaped plunging neckline to highlight her cleavage, and she drew attention to the spot thanks to a sizable tear drop–shaped emerald that was framed by diamonds.
The necklace included an opulent diamond-encrusted necklace, and Cardi matched her statement piece with dangling emerald earrings and more diamonds.
The gorgeous stones complemented Cardi’s long green claws, and she completed her jewelry array with a thick bracelet covered in gleaming diamonds and more emeralds.
Cardi’s dress left her toned arms uncovered, but it featured fin-like ripples of fabric rising up dramatically from her shoulders.
She went maximalist with the black fabric and even covered her hair with a towering turban.
After she got the men assisting her to fan out her skirt, they departed so that she could take some photos, before they returned to help hold the dress up as she ascended the stairs, though they had to pause and hide again as she posed for more pictures.
At last year’s Met Gala, Cardi broke out four different ensembles, so it wouldn’t be surprising if she opted to ditch the unwieldy skirt once she finally made it to the top of the stairs.

The Costume Institute’s annual spring exhibition takes place at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, always on the first Monday in May.
This year, the exhibition is titled “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion,” with a dress code inspired by “The Garden of Time.” The co-chairs for this event include Jennifer Lopez, Zendaya, Bad Bunny, and Chris Hemsworth. Vogue’s Anna Wintour is also part of the committee.
The honorary chairs are Jonathan Anderson, the creative director of Loewe, and Shou Zi Chew, CEO of TikTok.
“The co-chairs represent a broad range of career milestones, with each having unique style connections to the Met Gala,” Vogue commented.
The exhibition will display approximately 250 items from The Costume Institute’s permanent collection. Many of these items are so delicate that they cannot be worn or even placed on mannequins without risk of damage.
The pieces will be presented using advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), computer-generated imagery (CGI), and other innovative methods, emphasizing themes of land, sea, and sky.
Andrew Bolton, the Wendy Yu Curator in Charge of The Costume Institute, described the exhibition as “an ode to nature and the emotional poetics of fashion.”
