Doja Cat's recent appearance at the 2024 Met Gala has ignited a passionate debate among fans and critics.
The singer's choice to wear a wet T-shirt to the prestigious event has prompted calls for her removal from this year's Met Gala.
The theme for this year's Met Gala was "The Garden of Time," inspired by J.G. Ballard's 1962 short story, with the broader theme being "Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion."
In line with these themes, Doja Cat chose a rather unconventional outfit which was a towel ensemble and a wet oversized T-shirt.
Additionally, Doja Cat applied makeup that appeared to be smudged down her face, adding to the overall aesthetic. Despite this, she tried to put on platform heels.
In the second look, Doja Cat, whose full name is Amala Ratna Zandile Dlamini, ditched the towel and opted for a drenched oversized T-shirt, showcasing her bleached blonde hair after removing the hair towel.

While some fans praised her for her unique fashion sense and artistic vision, others were less impressed. The backlash was so strong that some fans even called for her to be banned from future Met Gala events.
Critics argued that her outfit was inappropriate and failed to align with the event's elegance and sophistication.
They expressed disappointment, stating that it did not meet the expected standards for such a prestigious gathering.
Despite the backlash, Doja Cat's supporters defended her outfit, applauding her boldness and creativity.
In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Doja Cat explained the concept behind her outfit.
