Katy Perry is a Barb and she wants everyone to know! The pop star shared a video of her sweet reunion with Nicki Minaj on the 2022 Met Gala red carpet. "I'm a Barb. Everybody knows," said Katy while posing next to Nicki in their Gilded Glamour looks. Nicki also made it clear she's a Katy fan starting off the video with "Dear Katy Perry, I love you!"

The two were among the many stars who hit the red carpet at the exclusive fashion gala on Monday, May 2. This year's Met Gala theme is "In America: An Anthology of Fashion" which serves as part two to last year's theme "A Lexicon of Fashion." The coveted invitation from Anna Wintour included an emphasis on Gilded Glamour, white-tie, which channels the time period between 1870 to 1890. The A-List attendees were asked, "to embody the grandeur — and perhaps the dichotomy — of Gilded Age New York."

Katy wore an elegant black Oscar de la Renta gown and accessorized with elbow-length gloves, clear heels, and diamond earrings worth $425,000. Nicki hit the red carpet ready to put the "gilded" in Gilded Glamour with gemstones all over her face, chest, and arms. Her feathery gown was made by Burberry and she completed the look with leather leggings and a matching baseball cap.
