Cardi B has been under fire online after she forgot the name of her designer during a red carpet interview at the Met Gala Monday. One of the comments that got the most attention was from former managing editor Gilbert Cheah who commented on a video of Cardi at the Met.

“For the record and recognition, and no thanks to Cardi B, the designer of her gown is Sensen Lii who's Chinese,” Gilbert commented. And though he expressed he personally felt the gown to be “boring and not even on theme,” he noted, “but she chose it and should have at least remembered his name and not just that he's ‘Asian.'”

Cardi spoke about the comment in her public explanation of the situation.

“First, when I was on the red carpet, I was very scared,” she said in a since-expired social media video shared by TMZ. “Because he dress was supposed to be on a little podium, and I've been practicing how to pose on the podium. But at the carpet, I wasn't allowed to use the podium. So I had a lot of things in my mind, and I was being rushed to the front of the line.”

She continued, “So when I was being interviewed, I kind of forgot to pronounce the designer's name because his name is a little but complicated. Like my mind was just racing. I said ‘Asian designer because I knew that the designer was Asian, but I wasn't sure what nationality the designer was. I didn't want to get somebody's nationality mixed up.”

“I do feel like, as a person that works in fashion, I feel like the designer and my stylist, we worked really hard for this theme. So for you to be kind of shady. Because you try to offend me, but you actually offending the people that work behind the scenes, you're actually offending the people that spent hours and hours on phone calls, on Zooms and money on this design,” Cardi said seemingly referring to Gilbert.

However, Cardi and Sensen Lii seem to be on good terms as the “WAP” rapper gave him proper credit on her Instagram Story and he reshared it to his with a red heart emoji.
