Cardi B is keeping her options open!
On Tuesday, May 7, just one day after the 2024 Met Gala, the 31-year-old “Enough” rapper took to social media to let her fans know that she does, in fact, have an alternate version of her dress available for the annual event.
“Green or black?” Cardi tweeted on X (formerly known as Twitter).
The post featured a video of the “WAP” hitmaker standing still in an oversized green lace dress as a member of her team walked around her to get a 360-degree view. In the behind-the-scenes footage, the superstar was makeup-free for the dress rehearsal.
Cardi also interacted with her fans and let them know why she chose black.
“WHY DIDN’T YOU GO WITH GREEN SISTER OMG,” one person said in response to the clip.

“It wasn’t a good photoshoot… It translated differently to all lighting and camera angles,” Cardi replied.
She also reposted a second, longer montage clip tweeted by a fan page.
“At Cardi’s #MetGala Preparations: Day 1,” recording was titled.

“This is not what I expected,” she said as she looked around the room, also asking why it “smells like fish.”
“Don’t make me smell fishy at the Met Gala,” she jokingly warned.
As the taping went on, Cardi continued to make adjustments, saying she was scared and admitting that the Met Gala gives her anxiety.
