"He really has a sweetness to him," Lady Gaga wrote of pal Justin Bieber at the party, "I reminded him to not get bothered. Because at the end of the day. He's the boss, and life isn't always Roses. Lots of thorns."

Rihanna's big dress amazes world at New York party
China's march towards global ascendancy has taken another leap forward - at least when it comes to New York high society and its most glittering fashion extravaganza, the Met Ball taking place at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
As New York city's party of the year, the event was attended by stars such as Madonna, George Clooney, Sarah Jessica Parker, Lady Gaga and Justin Bieber. China was chosen as the theme this year.
Being one of the last to arrive at the ball, Rihanna made quite an entrance wearing a fur-trimmed yellow cape with floral swirls of gold.
The cape was so long it required three attendants to watch over it.

Rihanna's outfit came complete with a little pink mini-dress underneath and a sparkling tiara.
Rihanna's outfit was designed by Chinese fashion designer Guo Pei whose works are part of the Met exhibit that the big party launched.

Rihanna's yellow cape quickly captured the imagination of netizens who grabbed the opportunity to Photoshop her gown into a variety of creative variations ranging from pepperoni pizza to an egg omelete.
Lady Gaga bumped into with Justin Bieber at the ball and shared a pic with him, sharing some motherly or sisterly advise with the teen heartthrob.
"He really has a sweetness to him," Lady Gaga wrote of pal Justin Bieber.
"He really has a sweetness to him," Lady Gaga wrote. "He grew up in front of the whole world. I reminded him to not get bothered. Because at the end of the day. He's the boss, and life isn't always Roses. Lots of thorns."
Chinese movie star Li Bingbing says that having China the focus this year for the Met Ball shows that Western attitudes towards her country China, for so long a communist bogeyman in the US, were beginning to change. The Met Ball kicks off the exhibition China: Through the Looking Glass, which explores Chinese influences on Western fashion.
Li Bingbing pointed to how much China can still be misunderstood in America and told of stereotypes she encountered, "I met some Americans... they thought nowadays that Chinese women still have feet binding," she said. "It's completely a huge change in China now. Women in China are very, very independent and capable and hard working." All that makes China a fast-growing luxury market for designer fashion clothes.
Hollywood is also opening its doors to China. Li played a Chinese scientist in 2014 blockbuster movie Transformers: Age Of Extinction, which grossed US$320 million (S$426 million) at the box office in China, eclipsing the US$245 million made in the US. They add Chinese culture, Chinese actors and outfits to the movie because they want more people watching the movie in China, explained Li.
The Met Ball has become a benchmark for international fashion style and a huge commercial success for Vogue magazine. Attendees pay US $25,000 for a single ticket or US$175,000 for a table of 10 and last year's ball generated almost US$12 million and attracted over 25 million page views on vogue.com.
Selfies and cell phones were reportedly banned from the ball. But then again, this is the ball that Hollywood actress Gwyneth Paltrow told USA Today in 2013 was so "un-fun" that she would never go again.
