Oscar-nominated singer & composer Tems wore a view-blocking hat that had the internet’s panties in a tight wad!
The artist was nominated for Best Original Song with Rihanna, director Ryan Coogler and Ludwig Goransson for Lift Me Up, on the soundtrack of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.
Sporting a gorgeous hat/veil/collar/dress by LA-based fashion designer Lessja Verlingieri of Lever Couture, Tems’ turned heads on the champagne carpet, but had others craning their necks to see anything once she took her seat.
Music producer Alex Medina posted a clip on Twitter a clip,
I’m cryinnnnnnn… tems got that lady fighting for her life.”
Mark Hamill, (aka Luke Skywalker) tweeted tweeting:
With my luck, I’d get Oscar tickets, then be seated directly behind the woman wearing that gigantic white veil.”
