A$AP Rocky fans questioned his Met Gala fashion choice just months after he was cleared in a gun trial.

The rapper, who confirmed he and Rihanna are expecting their third child, was one of the co-chairs of this year’s Met Gala. Alongside Anna Wintour, the other co-chairs were Colman Domingo, Lewis Hamilton and Pharrell Williams.

A$AP Rocky, real name Rakim Mayers, wore a sleek black suit on the blue carpet. However fans noticed that his umbrella featured a handle in the style of a revolver, albeit jazzed up with some jewels.

It came less than three months after he was cleared of two counts of felony assault with a semiautomatic firearm. If he had been convicted, he could have been facing up to 24 years locked up.

Fans were quick to notice the prop, with one writing: “A revolver handle umbrella after beating a gun case is diabolical.”

Someone else said: “A$AP Rocky carrying an umbrella that also looks like a gun… very meaningful, you either get it or you don’t.”

Another wrote: “Umbrella with a diamond encrusted revolver handle after the last few months Rocky had is historical.”

Of course, the prop could have also been a nod to his partner Rihanna, with one of her biggest songs being Umbrella.

Either way, it was a big night all around for the musical couple.

Hours before she arrived at the Met Gala, Rihanna got tongues wagging that she was pregnant with their third child.

She was seen with a baby bump leaving a hotel, and later walked the blue carpet as a late arrival.

A$AP Rocky spoke about their news, confirming they were expecting.

He told CBS Mornings with a laugh: “Rihanna’s outfit tonight is… I don’t know, whatever, just don’t really cover her baby hump, ya dig?”

The couple are already parents to sons RZA, who was born in May 2022, and Riot, who arrived in August 2023.
