Doja Cat Explains Her Wet T-Shirt Look at the 2024 Met Gala (Exclusive)

Doja Cat is taking the theme of the 2024 Met Gala literally.

After a weekend full of barely-there fashion in New York City, the "Woman" singer returned to the Metropolitan Museum of Art on Monday for fashion's biggest night to celebrate this year's theme -- "Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion" -- which is a nod to fashion history.

Doja wore a soaking wet T-shirt dress by Vetements. Taking the carpet -- and being sure to not put too much on display -- the rapper covered her chest area as she walked up the green stairs inside the gala.

Paying homage to the theme, "The Garden of Time," the 28-year-old told ET she thought outside the box when it came to her floral of choice.

"I know that people were going to do flowers, so my flower of choice was the most-used flower and it's cotton, and so I wanted to do a white T-shirt because a white T-shirt is timeless and felt very poetic and I knew it wasn't really going to blend in. I really don't like to blend in."

And yes, she was literally soaked.

"I'm actually wet right now," she told ET. "I'm not supposed to give the secret but it's hair gel. It's all hair gel and it's all over."

She continued, "I'm performing, it's a show tonight. I'm probably going to sit in the chair wet all night."

Prior to arriving at the venue, the GRAMMY-winning singer was spotted leaving The Mark Hotel alongside Vetements designer, Guram Gvasalia. The "Say So" singer wore a white towel -- that stopped slightly above her knees as she got into the car. Completing the look, the songstress rocked a matching wrapped towel on her head.

Taking the look to the next level, the "Paint The Town Red" rapper's black mascara dripped down her face and onto her neckline -- met by a diamond chain.

Over the weekend, Doja and Gvasalia turned heads around the city as they walked around the city, putting their own twist on sleeping beauties.

The "Get Into It" songstress shared pictures on Instagram of her holding what appears to be a white bedsheet around her with black Christian Louboutin heels. She drops one part of the sheet, exposing a black G-string thong.

In one photo, Doja Cat hugs Gvasalia, showing off a diamond teardrop necklace hanging on her bare back. The rapper and the designer also put on a risqué display at the Monse Maison Pre-Met Cocktail Celebration on Sunday.  Doja was also spotted in a two-piece -- that was literally made of plastic wrap.

Doja's latest appearance follows 2023, where she paid homage to Karl Lagerfeld dressed as a bedazzled cat on the red carpet. Her hooded Oscar de la Renta look featured a cat-ear silhouette and feathered train that was punctuated by cat eye, mouth and nose makeup. Taking her look to the level, Doja meow-ed her way through the red carpet.

Entertainment Tonight will be on the iconic Met Gala red carpet, so keep checking back with ETonline for more coverage from fashion's biggest night, including live updates and all of the jaw-dropping red carpet looks.
