Doja Cat embraced her name by dressing up as Karl Lagerfeld's beloved cat Choupette for the ceremony.

The 2023 Met Gala is absolutely packed with fantastic looks, luxurious ensembles, and a whole lot of stars. Despite all the commotion, it's no surprise that Doja Cat and her stunning choice of style is one of the most talked-about fits of the evening. Moreover, the "Freaky Deeky" rapper showed up in cat makeup and a sparkly white dress complete with cat ears, fully embracing her name. In fact, it's a tribute to Karl Lagerfeld's cat Choupette, as the German fashion designer was this year's theme. Not only that, but Jared Leto had a similar idea, showing up in a full cat bodysuit before revealing his look.

However, it's easy to see why the 27-year-old stole the show, with her creative mix of makeup and wardrobe to pay homage. Also, it's quite the payoff considering the very minimal tease that she gave fans on Instagram of her Met Gala fit. While they didn't have much to go by, they always count on Doja Cat to deliver some eye-catching fits. Among a lot of other astonishing looks and appearances, hers is emblematic of the creativity and bombast she's known for.

In addition to all this, the Los Angeles native also updates her followers on upcoming new music. Specifically, she suggested that she would be dropping a single in the coming weeks while expressing frustration with reception to her latest hairstyle. "Saw somebody edit hair onto my head for this look i did last night and it made me mad so i wanted to let them know they should be making money instead,” Doja Cat tweeted. “Im also aware of the ramifications of the last tweet and that I’ll only be seeing edits of me with hair for the next 4 weeks so I’ll be logging off / deleting twitter till my lead comes out."

All in all, she continued her streak of impressive and out-of-the-box fits at the 2023 Met Gala. Considering that allegedly she left her hotel either covered in umbrellas or held up in a plastic bag, the quality of her outfit made sense to be hidden until the big reveal.
