It’s time to take cover: the Met Gala’s annual internet take over is well underway.

In response to this year’s ‘An Exploration of Camp’ theme, celebrities took to the pink carpet in a variety of bold and colourful looks: Lady Gaga stole the show with her four-style ensemble, and Zendaya’s Cinderella-esque entrance had us all mesmerised.

But alongside all of the feathers and fabric, Lena Waithe used her time on the Met Gala pink carpet to teach us all a lesson about the true origins of camp.

Walking the carpet alongside designer Kerby Jean Raymond of Pyer Moss, the actress and screenwriter wore a suit with pinstripes made up of the lyrics of Diana Ross’ iconic hit ‘I’m Coming Out,’ with the statement “Black Drag Queens Invented Camp” emblazoned across the back.
