Nicki Minaj walked the carpet at the Met Gala on Monday night (May 5), which is the Queens legend’s eighth appearance at the prestigious May fashion event.

Minaj stopped on the blue carpet for an interview with Entertainment Tonight, where she explained the inspiration behind her Thom Browne navy pinstripe dress to match the “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style” theme of the night.

“Thinking about the tailoring of everything. First of all, Thom Browne is known for his craftsmanship. To me, it represents a proud period of African-Americans,” she said. “That’s what I got out of it when I saw the photos of what it would be about.”

Minaj — in her mermaid gown accessorized with a floral bouquet and a gold headband — continued: “It reminded me of putting on your Sunday’s best and being iconic in your own world.”

Minaj had another hilarious moment on the blue carpet when interacting with a reporter who shouted, “Nicki, why are you excited about this one?” The Young Money rapper clapped back with a cheeky response captured by AP: “Who said I was excited?”

Monday was yet another star-studded affair on a rainy night in NYC at the Met Gala, which saw stars such as Dua Lipa, Sabrina Carpenter, Cardi B, Kim Kardashian, Sydney Sweeney, Rihanna, A$AP Rocky, Pharrell, Pusha T, Alicia Keys, Ciara, Doechii, Madonna and many more in attendance.

Colman Domingo, Lewis Hamilton, A$AP Rocky, Pharrell Williams and Anna Wintour served as the co-chairs for the 2025 Met Gala.

Minaj has laid low for much of 2025 as the rapper is yet to drop a single this year. The Queen came in at the No. 1 spot on our Best Female Rappers of All-Time list in April.
