The piece of art showed the star's incredible pregnancy figure and the stone figurine had a floral print overlaid on it. The video was posted with a backdrop of classical music, adding to the drama of the big reveal.

"Wasn't even in attendance & still made an impact! This is so cool," penned one and: "There she is," wrote another.
Other fans made puns with Rihanna's name, writing: "HistoRIH" and "LegendaRIH".
Rihanna always makes a statement at the Met Gala
In previous years, the star has delivered some of our most memorable Met Gala fashion looks. In 2015, she stepped out in a Chinese canary yellow gown, and last year, Rihanna appeared for the first time with A$AP Rocky – sporting duvet-style coat dresses. Iconic if nothing else!
Gigi Hadid flew the flag for extreme fashion on this year's red carpet though, braving a huge puffer-style crimson coat with a latex outfit underneath.
Blake Lively's colour changing dress turned heads
Blake Lively served up another fashion highlight when she turned her gown from pink to blue with a team of people undoing her bustle and switching up her gloves. A truly magical moment that even husband Ryan Reynolds was blown away by, reacting with a shocked face as she stunned onlookers.
