A$AP Rocky was one of the biggest hints that Rihanna was coming to this year's Met Gala, which was probably why he had to jump over a barricade to get people hyped up.

According to reports, however, in the process of jumping over the barricade, the rapper climbs on top of a fan and knocked her over in the process.

Hours after the festivities of the event happened, the fan, who is identified as Madelyn Llanes, took to Twitter to share a selfie of herself looking disheveled.

"A$AP Rocky just literally jumped over me," she wrote in the caption, to which the rapper simply responded, "LOL MY FAULT $WEETHEART."

Injury?

According to The Independent, Llanes is perfectly fine-despite the various reports saying that the fan was injured or that A$AP Rocky used her face as leverage to get over the barricade.

There is no bad blood on her part and she does not hold it against the rapper for knocking her over.

"I went to The Carlyle early in the day just so I'd be able to see everyone's outfits up close as they'd head out," Llane explained.

"What happened with A$AP Rocky is that I had felt someone tapping my shoulder, so I turned around and saw that it was him but my brain didn't fully comprehend that it was him."

A$AP Rocky did, however, kindly ask her to move aside so he could jump over, but the fan refused, noting that there was not enough room to scoot over for him.

"He just pushed his way up and then hopped over and grabbed me and the guy next to me as he did. After he hopped over, he was like 'thank you' and then just laughed and flipped me off and then he went inside and that's when I fully realized it was him," she finished.

Friends

Despite the confusion and the incident, Llane is perfectly alright and in fact, is a bigger A$AP Rocky fan than she was when she first arrived in the Carlyle Hotel.

"I'm printing this on a t-shirt," she wrote, quoting the rapper's response to her now-viral tweet.

"Why is A$AP now [one of my friends]," she added in another tweet.

A$AP Rocky attended the Met Gala with Rihanna after a lot of speculation, and although they appeared much later, their outfits are Vogue-approved.
