Much like Rihanna, Lady Gaga is notorious for stepping out in show-stopping ensembles at major events like the Met Gala. This year, though, Mother Monster was sadly absent from the memorable night due to filming — but that didn't stop her from sending her congratulations to one of her favorite designers and Met Gala honoree Rei Kawakubo.
The singer/songwriter took to Twitter to give her two cents about who she felt did the best job with the theme, crowning Rihanna best-dressed of the evening. "Best dressed ❤in my humble opinion was @rihanna 🔥#MetGala captured the spirit of the night & emotion of #Kawakubo #CommeDesGarcons," she wrote. The funny part? The tweet didn't include a photo of Rihanna in her custom Comme des Garçons creation, but instead two photos of Gaga wearing iconic looks from the brand.

Naturally, Gaga's mentions were flooded with comments from fans, running the gamut from "where were you???" to "please collaborate!" to hilarious GIFS applauding her for complimenting Rihanna's look. But a few pointed out that her photo choice was odd:

Regardless, we're happy to see one superstar applauding another. And one thing's for sure: both ladies slay in Comme des Garçons designs.
