\t\t\t\t\tMet Gala 2025: Here Are the 20 Best Musician Looks,\u00a0Ranked\t\t<\/p>\n<\/h3><\/div>\n

\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n

\n\tIn a photo taken that night inside New York City\u2019s Metropolitan Museum of Art, where Usher performed for gala attendees following the pomp and circumstance of the red carpet, the \u201cYeah!\u201d musician holds a microphone in one hand while pinching a maraschino cherry by the stem in the other, dangling it over the pop star\u2019s open mouth. Carpenter, meanwhile, eagerly tilts her head back and sticks out her tongue to accept the offering.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe up-close-and-personal gifting of cherries has become a staple of Usher\u2019s live shows, with the star first doling out the fruits to fans at his 2022-23 Las Vegas residency concerts. \u201cIt started with strawberries in Vegas,\u201d he explained on The Jennifer Hudson Show<\/a> <\/em>in February. \u201cSo, you know, I just figured we try all the fruits until we figured out which one works the best. But cherries were something that I felt was fun and just kind of active. It was a bit erotic.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThat\u2019s what R&B is all about, right?\u201d he added at the time with a cheeky smile. \u201cBeing connected and making people feel something fun \u2014 I don\u2019t mean to break up houses.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tIt\u2019s probably the admittedly \u201cerotic\u201d nature of Usher\u2019s cherry tradition that didn\u2019t exactly thrill Carpenter\u2019s dad, though. On Instagram<\/a> Wednesday (May 7) \u2014 two days after the gala \u2014 the \u201cPlease Please Please\u201d singer shared a screenshot of her texts with \u201cDadda,\u201d who sent her the photo of the moment and simply wrote \u201c? Weird.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tBeyond accepting snacks from Usher, Carpenter also hung out with \u201cTaste\u201d music video costar Jenna Ortega and modeled a leggy brown Louis Vuitton leotard on the red carpet at this year\u2019s Met. The 2025 theme was \u201cSuperfine: Tailoring Black Style,\u201d which Usher \u2014 in addition to being that night\u2019s performer \u2014 helped exemplify as one of the members of this year\u2019s costume institute benefit host committee.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
