According to reports, Rihanna is trying to keep the Kardashians out of the 2025 Met Gala because of their ties to divisive people from her past.
The well-known artist has a lengthy history of disliking the Kardashians. Kim Kardashian apparently tried to make friends with Rihanna but was rejected during her marriage to Kanye West. Because of Kendall Jenner’s contacts with musician Chris Brown in 2014, Rihanna has a special dislike for Jenner. Jenner’s association with Brown after his notorious 2009 attack of Rihanna was seen as a betrayal. “Kendall chose a side, and it was the wrong one,” according to a source.
The fact that Kendall Jenner dated A$AP Rocky in 2017 added to the strain. According to reports, Rihanna and Rocky were only acquaintances at the time, but she felt “territorial” about him, which made her hatred of Jenner even more.
With A$AP Rihanna is thought to have a big say on the guest list for the 2025 Met Gala, which she co-chairs with Anna Wintour, publisher of Vogue. She now seems determined to use that authority to prevent any of the Kardashians from attending the esteemed event.
“A lot of people are encouraging her-she’s by no means the only one who feels like the Kardashians’ time is up,” a source said.
In recent years, the Kardashians have played a significant role in the Met Gala, which is known for its exclusivity and exquisite fashion. The celebrity landscape of the event would change significantly if they were to skip it in 2025. Even in the fashion industry’s public domain, Rihanna’s rumored campaign demonstrates her dedication to upholding personal boundaries and resolving old grievances.
The fashion industry will be attentively observing how these dynamics develop and whether Rihanna’s influence will change the guest list for the 2025 Met Gala.
Is Jay-Z blacklisted as well?
It’s possible that Jay-Z is on Rihanna’s blacklist in addition to the Kardashians because of his recent remarks concerning the singer.
When Rihanna was just 17 years old, Jay-Z, in his haste to sign her to Def Jam, made a joke that has since generated a lot of debate. He threatened to toss Rihanna “out the window” from the 29th floor if she didn’t sign the contract. Because of how disturbing the comment was, there is now more attention being paid to the coercive methods that are occasionally used in high-stakes Hollywood discussions.
