Doja Cat looks like she was caught in the rain at the 2024 Met Gala: See her daring look

Doja Cat was daring as always with her caught-in-the-rain Met Gala appearance Monday night.
The Coachella headliner opted for a drenched look on the steps of New York City's Metropolitan Museum of Art for fashion's biggest night. The Grammy-winning rapper was draped in a wet white crewneck floor-length T-shirt dress with wrist-length sleeves, which clung to her skin.
Doja's bleached hair was in her now-signature short cropped style, which showed off her ear accessories – a small collection of diamond studs and hoops adorning her lobe, conch and helix.
This year's Met Gala exhibition theme is "Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion," and the dress code is "The Garden of Time."
Doja made the entire day into a fashion show, arriving at The Mark Hotel – where Met Gala attendees traditionally prepare their looks for the event – in a clear plastic bag with nude-colored undergarments.
As she stepped out of the hotel to make her way to the gala, she donned a decoy outfit, which alluded to the wet oversized shirt look she ended up wearing on the red carpet.
She was wrapped up in a white towel that featured a large tag on her torso, which read "dress" and seemed to detail care instructions. Her head was wrapped in a matching white towel, and she had a silver and gold necklace and dangling earrings to complete her bath time look.
For those who somehow forgot, the rapper looked like purr-fection at last year's Met Gala when she dressed as Karl Lagerfeld's famous Birman cat, Cat Choupette, in honor of the late designer.

Her look was a sleek, head-to-toe diamond ensemble from Oscar de la Renta, complete with cat ears that wrapped around the top of her head. She also wore killer cat eye makeup, along with a prosthetic cat nose and long, curved nails that resembled cat claws.
Last month, Doja made headlines for her hair (again) due to social media users' reactions to the promotional art she shared for her song, "Masc," which is from her latest album "Scarlet 2: Claude."
The image is a high-definition, zoomed-in photo of the back of the singer's blond head. A day later, she took to Instagram Live to respond to some of the comments made under the post.
According to screen recordings shared by @Popcrave and @theshaderoom, Doja said, “I’m seeing a consistent pattern in my comments section of people saying is my hair pubic hair? Is it carpet? Or is it sheep’s wool? And it's not even questions. Some people are being like, that's what it is."
She added, "People comparing my hair to sheep and pubes and carpet and popcorn ... Like, we gotta move forward. Let’s move forward. Let’s grow. Let’s stop."
In a recording shared by @Doja HQ, the “Paint the Town Red” singer said in the Instagram Live that she was "struggling deeply with recording this" because "I don't like to make videos of myself" being serious. She'd recorded the same video explaining her thoughts on the issue "over and over" before ultimately deciding to start a livestream.
"I just need to get this ... off my chest," she said.
