Met Gala 2025: Doechii Responds to Controversy in TikTok
Originally appeared on E! Online Doechii had just a little anxiety about her first Met Gala. And she's in a space to joke about it. Following the backlash she received after she was heard yelling for more umbrellas before leaving The Mark Hotel to attend the May 5 event, the 'What It Is' musician explained herself. In a TikTok video shared May 7, the 26-year-old slowly backs away from the camera while holding up her hands as 'Easy' by The Commodores plays. Poking fun at the moment, the caption over the video read, 'God forbid a girl needs more umbrellas.' Further elaborating, Doechii wrote a longer caption under the video. 'All jokes aside this was such an overstimulating night,' the 'Denial Is a River' rapper wrote. 'But I wouldn't trade it for the world! This was the night we all dreamed of and my team killed it (umbrellas aside).' Doechii's comments were filled with support as one user quipped, 'God forbid a girl finally makes it to THE MET GALA cut my girl some slack frrrr.'

In videos shared on social media, the 'Egypt' rapper is heard yelling for more umbrellas as she stands in a box—hoping to conceal her outfit from the crowd and the rain outside of the hotel. Eventually, her team gathers more umbrellas and she is pushed outside into a sprinter van. Making her debut at the gala, the Grammy winner rocked a custom short suit designed by Pharrell Williams for Louis Vuitton. Tailoring the look specifically to her, the rapper sported a perfectly crafted afro, custom LV gold fronts and a cigar. Doechii further explained her reaction and expressed her gratitude for evening in a message on her Instagram Story. 'And all jokes aside I'm so proud of my glam team and the LV team for an incredible night,' she wrote May 7. 'We've been dreaming about this Met for a long time and the theme this year is in such alignment with who I am what I stand for. It's nothing but God that this year was our debut.' 'Everyone killed it,' she continued. 'We nailed the theme. And a time was had.'
