Wow. I'm like really tired of seeing Asians get treated a way. I'll never get over when Chris Rock was racist against Asians at the Oscars?? And like the woman who did #oscarssowhite was like "Asians get over it" and so many ppl followed her lead?! I'm just like wow.

What the actual fuck.

Write it on your hand
Make a note in your phone
Ask your assistant
Ask your friend
Ask your designer

There were SO many ways around this inexcusable faux pas.

Come on.

[ghastly]

This is inexcusable. If she were a young artist who'd never done the Met Gala before, I could see momentarily forgetting because of the "holy shit I'm here," but then you'd have it written down or your assistant there with a name so precisely this doesn't happen.

It's not like Cardi isn't used to big events and a lot of attention though.

Maybe it was payback for that dress

[cbluechicken]

that dress was ugly and i'm surprised because she is usually on point

Seriously it's for the best that the designer's name is not associated with it

Oh my wow.

Celebs know this question is coming. How hard is it to memorise a name? Or get your assistant to remind you multiple times as you arrive?

Or say "in all the excitement of being here the name went right out of my head".

Literally anything besides "he's asian".
