The 36-year-old songstress caught a flu and was not well enough to appear at the red carpet.

RiRi attended the event last year after a long hiatus dressed in a stunning white gown by Valentino. She also announced her pregnancy with baby No. 2 during her Super Bowl performance in the same year.

The star didn’t attend the 2024 Met Gala after confirming her attendance to British Vogue earlier this year. She didn’t tell the outlet any details about her look, but revealed that it would be from her own brand.

"I'm gonna wear Fenty something! Fenty Beauty, Fenty Skin, Fenty Savage," she shared.

"I've done so much s**t in my life. I've had my n*pples out, my panties out. But now, those are the things which, I guess as a mom and an evolved young lady -- emphasis on young -- there are things I feel like I would never do. Like, 'Oh my God, I really did that? N*ps out?'" Rihanna added.
