She loves to commit to a bit.
Cardi B might have caused a stir when she forgot the name of her dress designer on the Met Gala 2024 red carpet last Monday, but it turns out she originally had a twist up her sleeve that would’ve made even more headlines.
The “WAP” rapper, 31, shared a TikTok revealing a behind-the-scenes look at her Met Gala prep last week — and the star had considered wearing prosthetics to look like an elderly woman.

Cardi B lounged in a robe and headscarf as makeup artist Alexis Stone applied a layer of wrinkled skin to her arms and hands in the clip, with the “Up” singer later walking out in slippers to reveal an older face and curly gray hair.
However, her literal interpretation of the gala’s “Garden of Time” dress code wasn’t meant to be.
In another TikTok clip, the Grammy winner said she ditched the prosthetics idea because she “was just a little bit scared how the pictures were gonna come out.”

“A lot of people, they’re not creative like me. We think outside the box,” she added.
Stone seemed to take the situation in stride as he shared some photos of his work on Instagram last Wednesday, writing, “Creative directions change, it happens but a really cool BTS look at what could have been the Sleeping Beauty look.”
As for her Met Gala dress, designed by Windowsen, Cardi B said that while it was “such a beautiful amazing piece” and reminded her of “a black rose” she would “take it off right away” due to its extreme weight.
