After Rihanna completely slayed the Met Gala red carpet, she met up with pal Lupita Nyong'o inside the event. The ladies were spotted snapping selfies — while Aziz Ansari stood idly and awkwardly by — in their avant-garde looks before famed photographer Mario Testino finally stepped in to lend his professional eye.

The last time we saw this power pair together was during Paris Fashion Week back in 2014, but their friendship was at the center of an amazing imagined movie script that made the rounds on social media recently. After a Twitter user resurfaced an image of Rihanna and Lupita sitting front row together at the Miu Miu runway show with the caption "A picture for the history books," someone else mused that "Rihanna looks like she scams rich white men and Lupita is the computer smart best friend that helps plan [them]." Lupita and Rihanna exchanged some epic tweets that ended up involving director Ava Duvernay and Insecure star Issa Rae, who both expressed interest in the "project."
