In an interview with Vogue, Cardi B expressed the pressure she feels regarding her appearance at the Met Gala, stating she feels she is competing with herself due to high expectations. She discussed the gala's theme, "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style," reflecting on the dandyism cultural roots in Harlem. Despite recognition of her insights, social media reactions suggested concern about her appearance, labeling her as "tired" or "different," illuminating the harsh criticisms celebrities face from the public.
"It's actually more intimidating now because I'm competing with myself. Everybody always expects so much from me... itâs overwhelming, but I love it."
"When I first found out that the Met Gala was dandyism, all I could think about is Harlem. You know, when you walk the streets of Harlem, you always have custom, like, stores that actually make custom, like, fits like this."
