Looks like Carla didn’t make the cut.
She’s not a musician, but somehow Carla Delevingne ended up being one of the most talked-about guests at Sunday’s Billboard Music Awards.
Although it has not been confirmed, it appears that the model-turned-actor may have received an offer to be one of the plus points for rap star Meghan Thee Stallion. But that doesn’t explain Carla’s somewhat odd behavior that night.

For seemingly no reason, she even jumped into the picture at one point, playing with Meghan’s skirt.

Before we go any further, it’s important to note that – as far as we can tell – Meghan and Carla have not previously made it clear that they are close friends, or that they even hang out in the same circle. That’s what makes the whole situation even more baffling as night falls.

With all of this in mind, you might be able to better understand everyone’s confusion when the guests were seated at the ceremony, and – to the surprise of fans – Kara sat between the night’s two biggest contenders, Meghan. between. and Doja cat.

Fans’ intrigue reached new heights later in the evening when Meghan was called the winner of the female rap artist category as they watched Carla appear to be invading Meghan’s personal space, sticking her tongue out close Her face, fiddling again, was wearing Meg’s dress as she stood up to accept her award.

Shortly after, an equally daunting video surfaced online showing Meghan and Doha chatting from their seats before Kara ~literally~ sticks her head into the conversation.
In the now-popular clip, both Meg and Doja seem to laugh it off and seem unresponsive to the unexpected interruption. But now, fans are starting to feel that Meghan might be a little uncomfortable with Carla’s strange behavior.

So after the show, Meghan celebrated her victory on her Instagram account and reposted some sweet photos of the night. However, some keen-eyed followers couldn’t help but notice something unusual about a photo of Meghan at the ceremony.

In this photo, Meg retweeted her story from a fan account, and she can be seen posing side-by-side with Doha in their seats. Of course, it didn’t take long for people to notice that Cara, sitting between them in the original photo, had been completely edited out.

Although Meghan apparently didn’t edit it herself, fans quickly began to speculate that the retweet was a subtle nod to the online comments surrounding Kara’s strange behavior.

That being said, others were quick to point out that in the unedited photo, Carla looked a little blurry, prompting the theory that the edits may have just happened because Carla wasn’t ready to be photographed.

In any case, we’ll have to wait and see if Meghan explicitly comments on the situation. If she does, we will keep you informed.
BuzzFeed News has reached out to Meghan’s representatives for comment.
