Five years ago, the Knowles sisters and Jay Z were the centers of the infamous "a billion dollars on an elevator" Met Gala controversy that showed Solange and the New York rapper engaged in a physical altercation. All is well on the homefront for the three family members, and since then Solange has returned to the Ball's red carpet to showcase her high-fashion styles without incident. Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images On Monday, the Met Gala's "Camp" theme brought outrageous and extravagant displays of fashion, and while Solange usually is an active participant of the event, the When I Get Home singer dressed-down in a python skin Salvatore Ferragamo 'fit with matching thigh-high boots. Solange looked demure as she posed for photographers on the red carpet, but that was a far cry from her Met Gala after party that was Turn Up Central. In all of their "Knuck If You Buck" glory, Solange called on Diamond and Princess of Crime Mob to perform at her post-Gala shindig. The Houston singer shard clips of the ladies onstage in front of a hyped crowd that almost drowned them out from singing along so loud. Diamond also shared the video on her Instagram page and wrote, "LAST NIGHT WAS MAD REAL QUEEN ðððð@saintrecords ðð½ðð½ðð½ðð½ THANK U ðð½ðð½ FOR HAVING US———- @princessdigital We Did DATTTTTTTTTTT."<doc-sep>If there are larger-than-life chandeliers and shapeshifting, four-in-one dresses slowly making their way up the Met stairs, what’s one to wear to all of the afterparties? Some doubled down on the theme last night at the gala, like Katy Perry who transformed into a hamburger (what else!). Solange and New York singer Princess Nokia set a more subtle standard for others to follow with their post-gala party looks from a few days earlier. Following Performance Space's Spring 2019 Gala, which Solange hosted, the two posed sweetly side-by-side in similarly skin-baring looks that conveyed a joyful, campy spirit. Solange attended the Met in a thigh-grazing custom snakeskin Ferragamo romper—she even handled a little python for a brief moment on the red carpet—and her party look was just as playful, with a strappy fishnet skirt that revealed her black underpinnings. Nokia on the other hand, went full mermaid in a semi-sheer, sequin Discount Universe gown that had “Not For Sale” in big red lettering spelled out across the midriff. The cowrie shells braided into her hair were a nice touch, too. In a sea of meme-worthy ensembles, Solange and Nokia were unsuspecting fashion sirens in their own right.

An accomplished singer, songwriter, dancer, DJ and style guru, Knowles graced the Coachella stage last year when she joined her big sister, Beyoncé, during her historic, headlining set.

Less than a week before Solange was set to appear onstage at Coachella, the singer has canceled her upcoming sets due to unspecified “major production delays.” “Due to major production delays, Solange will unfortunately no longer be performing at this year’s festival,” organizers wrote Sunday night on Twitter. “She sends her sincerest apologies, and looks forward to performing at Coachella in the future.” Solange’s cancellation will apply to both weekends of the festival, Rolling Stone has learned. A rep for Goldenvoice, the production company behind Coachella, referred a request for more information to Solange’s spokesperson. A rep for Solange referred Rolling Stone to the festival organizers’ tweet and declined to comment further. Solange has not commented on the cancellation as of Sunday night. The singer, who released her latest album When I Get Home last month, was scheduled to perform alongside Kid Cudi, Weezer, Aphex Twin, J Balvin and headliners Tame Impala. The 19-track When I Get Home is her first since 2016’s A Seat at the Table and includes contributions from Metro Boomin, Pharrell, Earl Sweatshirt, Tyler, the Creator, Playboi Carti and more. Solange oversaw the making of the album with scrupulous care, starting in Houston and then continuing later in sessions in Los Angeles and Jamaica. “The best [approach] for me is to invite people into the space and say ‘do you,’” the star explained during a Houston album-release event that was live-streamed by Apple Music. “It could be six hours before I hear the one ad-lib or the one thing where I think, ‘OK, that is how I can extend this into an expression of what I want to achieve.’” It’s been three years since Solange released A Seat at the Table, her commercial breakthrough: The album sold the equivalent of 72,000 copies opening week, delivering the singer her first Number One on the Billboard 200. In addition, A Seat at the Table yielded Solange’s first two Hot 100 entries, “Cranes in the Sky” and “Don’t Touch My Hair.”
