Okay, soooooo, apparently Doechii’s Met Gala 2025 entrance had more drama than a Real Housewives reunion and more umbrellas than Mary Poppins’ closet. And yes, people had opinions. Let’s unpack the chaos, shall we?
The 26-year-old rap sorceress behind “Anxiety” (how fitting) accidentally went viral—not for her outfit, not for her makeup, but for what may now be known as the Umbrella Incident of 2025. Picture this: Doechii backstage, flailing like a stylish octopus, barking out orders like “Give me another umbrella! And another! GIVE ME ANOTHER ONE!” as if she was preparing for a Category 5 paparazzi storm. Rihanna walked so Doechii could… umbrella sprint.
People online immediately did what they do best: assume, exaggerate, and tweet like their thumbs were on fire. Suddenly, Doechii was being painted as the Umbrella Dictator, terrorizing assistants like she was auditioning for The Devil Wears Balenciaga.
But plot twist—Doechii was unbothered, unscathed, and still snatched. She clapped back with a video on May 7 captioned, “God forbid a girl needs more umbrellas,” which, honestly, should be embroidered on a pillow or maybe her next album title.
She took to her Instagram Story to sprinkle a little positivity (and likely prevent anyone from turning this into a full-blown PR hurricane), saying:
“And all jokes aside I’m so so proud of my glam team and the LV team for an incredible night!”
Translation: “I’m not yelling at my team. I’m yelling with love and urgency—for fashion.”
And on TikTok? Our girl dropped some gratitude realness and humility like glitter on a runway:
“We’ve been dreaming about this Met for a long time… It’s nothing but God that this year was our debut. Everyone killed it. We nailed the theme. And a time was had.”
Cue umbrella emoji. Because, of course.
So to recap:
- No assistants were harmed in the making of this entrance.
- Doechii needed umbrellas, not attitude.
- The theme was themed.
- And a time was absolutely had.
Catch us all at the next Met Gala with three umbrellas, minimum—because Doechii said so. ☂️

@iamdoechii_ All jokes aside this was such an overstimulating night but I wouldn’t trade it for the world! This was the night we all dreamed of and my team killed it (umbrellas aside) 😭🥴
