She continued, “And I just can’t rotate my neck because I tried to do a headstand, it didn’t go well that's all.”

Moreover, she mentioned that her absence at the Met Gala was pre-decided, “This is not why I am not at the Met, I was never going to Met this year,” she added. “Please I am so stupid for having made this a thing.”
