Tyla on meeting Rihanna at the Met Gala:
“She was cool…I think she was occupied. I went up to her and was like, ‘Oh, hey, you know…’ and she was like, ‘Hey, um – my baby daddy is calling me,’ and then she left.” pic.twitter.com/VuF8MjuPG3

Tyla took to socials to share her experience of meeting Rihanna at The MET Gala.
“I met her last year, and she was cool. You know, I met her, but I think she was occupied cause she was like, I was like, I went up to her. I was like, oh, hey, you know, she was like, hey, um, um, my baby daddy’s calling me. And then she left, and I was like, ‘ Oh, maybe she was busy,’ she said.
“I felt awkward. I don’t know how to say hi if I feel like someone’s busy,” she added.
