BLACKPINK‘s Jennie made her Met Gala debut at this year’s event, stunning the internet with her viral Chanel look.  As Karl Lagerfeld‘s last handpicked muses, her recreated archival piece suited her perfectly.

Jennie also topped trends throughout the night, proving her status as one of the most influential people in the fashion world!

The star’s interview with host Emma Chamberlain also went viral but for the most unexpected reason.

Throughout the night, YouTuber Emma Chamberlain interviewed multiple guests on the event’s red carpet, including Jennie. During the interview, Jennie shared her thoughts, even mentioning the advice Rosé gave her about attending the event.

The interview clip was shared online, quickly gaining retweets and comments about Jennie. However, eagle-eyed netizens couldn’t help but notice American rapper Doja Cat in the background of the video!

Doja went viral for her own Met Gala look — a glamorous take on Karl Lagerfeld‘s cat, Choupette — so netizens were tuned into her actions throughout the evening.

While standing in the background of Jennie’s interview, Doja can be seen using her vape, blowing smoke after drawing from the small device.

 

While vaping is not considered “scandalous” in America, Doja has attracted attention repeatedly for having her vape on her during unexpected moments, like when she won “Top R&B Album” at the 2022 Billboard Music Award and when she won her first Grammy.
