Lil Nas X, 2023
Lil Nas X didn’t just attend the 2023 Met Gala; he became the outfit. Channeling Lagerfeld’s famous cat, he hit the carpet covered in metallic silver body paint, crystal whiskers, and over 5,000 rhinestones and pearls. Every inch of him sparkled, from his mask to his platform boots, and the transformation reportedly took nearly 12 hours to complete.
It was part fashion, part sculpture, and all drama. He blew up in 2019 with “Old Town Road” and followed it with genre-blending hits like “Montero (Call Me By Your Name)” and “Industry Baby.” By 2022, he had scored two Grammy wins and had become a fearless fashion force.
