Rihanna Skipping 2024 Met Gala After Coming Down With the Flu

One of the most iconic Met Gala guests was too sick to attend this year, according to sources.

ET has learned that the "Rude Boy" songstress, 36, sadly had to skip the event as she came down with the flu and was too sick to stun on the carpet as she has in past years.
