The musician arrived at the Met Gala in a blindingly beautiful silver cat look and left with a handful of selfies with some of the biggest names who attended. The 24-year-old musician had all eyes on him on the carpet in a full-body crystallized look inspired by Karl Lagerfeld's cat Choupette that he created with the help of legendary makeup artist Pat McGrath, creative director Nicola Formichett, nail artist Temeka Jackson and hairstylist Coree Moreno. Every Met Gala 2023 Red Carpet Look You Must See It seemed like his glitzy glamour attracted the attention of everyone there, as he shared a series of selfies on Instagram with everyone from Kim Kardashian and Doja Cat to Billie Eilish and more. Lil Nas X/instagram He started his multi-part post with a photo of himself from behind, posing on the red carpet behind Vogue contributing editor Lauren Santo Domingo, where his sparkling cheeks are on full display, then adding an up-close video of his makeup before getting into the selfies.

Lil Nas X/instagram This first selfie showed him and his pearl-encrusted face standing next to Bad Bunny, who wore a white, backless Jacquemus suit with his hair slicked back and pearl earrings. Next was a flick with his "INDUSTRY BABY" collaborator Jack Harlow, who wore a black Tommy Hilfiger suit, pearl earrings and his signature curly hair dangling untouched. Lil Nas X/instagram Nas then met up with his feline friend Doja Cat, who showed off her rendition of a glamorous Choupette in a tight-fitted hooded Oscar de la Renta gown that she completed with prosthetic cat makeup and sparkling cat ears on top of the hood.

Lil Nas X/instagram Billie Eilish was the next on the list of selfies, and she starkly contrasted Lil Nas X's shiny outfit with her goth-glamour Simone Rocha gown — custom made for her — and Cartier jewelry. Lil Nas X/instagram Finishing off his star-studded selfie selection was Kim Kardashian, posing with duck lips in her Schiaparelli design and a group selfie with Maluma and Annita, who looked ultra-excited to see the walking disco ball. Lil Nas X's over-the-top glam took nine hours to complete, according to Vogue, so it only makes sense that so many stars wanted to get pictures with it. Close
