Here are all her Met Gala looks between 2013 and 2022.
Nicki Minaj cringed while looking back at her Met Gala style.
In Vogue's latest "Life in Looks" video, the Grammy-nominated rapper reflected on some of her most iconic fashion moments during her career. At one point, she recalled her 2022 Met Gala look, which caused her to gasp and say "oh no" in the video.
Minaj, 41, said the gown "cemented" her decision to get a breast reduction. She confirmed the surgery in November to Vogue.
"I did my fittings. I told them I loved this hat and I loved what the outfit was giving, but I said, 'You guys, look, these boobs are going to be spilling out,'" Minaj said in the video.
She added: "I knew before we even left the room that the boobs were about to have a night of their own."
Minaj has attended the illustrious event six times since she first stepped onto the Met Gala carpet in 2013. Take a look at her style over the years.

The 2013 Met Gala theme was "Punk: Chaos to Couture," but Minaj kept things simple in a dark blue gown featuring cut-outs along the midriff and a square neckline. Tommy Hilfiger designed the gown and gifted Minaj a $32,000 Rolex for being his guest at the event.
"Oh gee, thx Tommy," she wrote on X, known as Twitter at the time.

Minaj waited three years to attend her next Met Gala, which had the "Manus x Machina: Fashion in an Age of Technology" theme. She posed with designer Jeremy Scott, wearing a Moschino creation on the red carpet. Scott announced in March 2023 that he intended to step down from his role with the luxury fashion brand.
The sheer black dress featured a plunging necklace and black belts with bejeweled buckles. Minaj also wore black sheer opera gloves.

Vogue reported that Minaj's ensemble — designed in collaboration with H&M — included a duchess satin kimono top, an obi belt with designer Rei Kawakubo's face, and intricate details like a strip of red Swarovski crystals.

Minaj wore another black and red ensemble to the Met Gala in 2018 when the theme was "Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination."
She arrived in an ombré Oscar de la Renta gown with black fabric at the top that gradually turned a bold red. She topped the gown with a matching robe featuring a long train and a detailed headpiece.

Minaj attended the 2019 Met Gala — with the "Camp: Notes on Fashion" theme — in an all-pink halter minidress designed by Prabal Gurung. It included a plunging sweetheart neckline, an extravagant train, and silver jewels strung across the fabric.
During a red carpet interview with Entertainment Tonight that May, Minaj admitted that she didn't understand the event's "camp" theme.
"Up until today, I had no idea what 'camp' was," she told the outlet. "So, I don't even know if this is camp, to be honest."
May 2022: For her most recent Met Gala, Minaj arrived in a gown designed by Burberry
