Cara Delevingne attended the annual Billboard Music Awards on Sunday (May 15) and became unexpectedly became one of the night's viral memes, all thanks to her love for Megan Thee Stallion.
The American rapper who attended the awards ceremony in Las Vegas performed her hit songs Plan B and Sweetest Pie and was visibly shocked when she won the Top Rap Female Artist category for a second consecutive year, where she was up against Cardi B and Latto.
But viewers couldn't help but notice that Cara was not far from Megan's side throughout the night as the model and actor was on the red carpet with her and also sat next to her in the audience too.
