Last night's Met Gala featured many celebrities weaponizing fashion to assault peoples eyeballs and sense of good taste, but only one attendee brought a literal weapon: Grimes, who showed up to the event with a literal sword.

The sword was forged from a melted AR-15, which was Grimes way of contributing to the event's "In America" theme. The sword was made by a company literally called guns2swords, whose (rather badass) website outlines a very simple deal: send in your gun and they'll turn it into a sword.

To many, the stunt seemed very much a Grimes thing to do. Two years ago, Grimes talked about how she engaged in sword play while explaining her training regimen, though the sword portion of the regimen was by far the least quirky thing about it.

As you may expect, Grimes showing up to a fashion show with a literal sword caused quite a stir on Twitter.

Grimes brings a sword to the Met Gala and it’s “daring” and “brave.” I bring one to Red Lobster and it’s “ignorant” and “a felony.” pic.twitter.com/L1FGfMjcdq

(extremely annoyed that grimes's sword made out of a melted down gun accessory is kind of a serve)

At least one person noted that while the sword may have seemed out of place, considering the event's theme, it was actually extremely on point.

technically grimes bringing a weapon to a completely unnecessary occasion is the most american thing ever and therefore she is extremely on theme https://t.co/fwN6wpzZf6
