The Met Gala may be over, but it's still setting the internet ablaze. 

From jaw-dropping fashion to surprise pregnancy announcements, the buzz isn't dying down anytime soon.

The Met Gala has always been the event where celebrities push the boundaries of fashion, and this year was no different.

Celebrities like Rihanna, Doja Cat, Tyla, Zendaya, Lewis Hamilton, Pharrell, Colman Domingo, and others stole the show with their iconic looks. 

Some of the looks were so good that even content creators just had to shoot their shot - glue guns, wigs and all!

TikTok content creator, wechijandukwa1, who has over 119,000 followers, unveiled some of his favourite looks from the red carpet. Much to everyone's surprise, he was pretty accurate in his interpretations. 

Watch the video below from TikTok that got the people of Mzansi in stitches - both with laughter and the fashion kind. 

While it may not be the most accurate representation of Rihanna's elegance in her Marc Jacobs creation, it was surely hilarious to see his creativity.

People were impressed, to say the least, one person said: "That's Riyana from Temu, not Rihanna from Barbados."

This wasn't his only recreation; he also copied Doja Cat's Marc Jacobs look. You can check it out here on TikTok (see below image). 

The Met Gala may turn heads with its high-fashion looks, but South Africans will always find a way to bring the entertainment factor.
