Rihanna's Met Gala 'Big Bird' Dress Certainly Kept Twitter Entertained (PICS)

RiRi's Wears 'Big Bird' Dress To Met Ball, Twitter Explodes.

When you’re sharing the red carpet with the cream of showbiz land, it’s important to really make a splash - and Rihanna did just that at this year’s China-themed Met Gala, although not necessarily for the right reasons.

While the likes of Beyoncé and Kim Kardashian tried to steal the limelight - and generate the most column inches - in flesh-flashing designs, RiRi was one of the few celebs in attendance to wear a dress by a Chinese designer.

But as soon as the 27-year-old rocked up to the event at New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art, her canary yellow gown, which took designer Guo Pei two years to complete, sent Twitter into meltdown...

Forget fur, some thought Rihanna was wearing Big Bird from ‘Sesame Street’...

Others couldn’t help but notice the similarities her dress had to an omelette…

Or a pizza...

And look who was coasting along on RiRi’s train…

And that’s got to be the most glamorous way to make an emergency exit from a plane...
