When she saw the Met Gala photo, her mother fell for it

A viral Instagram post claimed to show an elaborately-dressed Rihanna in attendance, when she was actually home sick with the flu. “Couldn’t make it to the Met, had to work,” she wrote while sharing a video of herselfsinging in the studio. Earlier, The Witness had reported Katy Perry didn’t wear a photo of her dress on the theme of the Met Gala.
