Tems, the award-winning Nigerian singer, has gone viral on
social media over the outfit she wore to the 2023 Oscar Awards.
The award ceremony was held on Sunday night at the Dolby
Theatre, Ovation Hollywood in Los Angeles, US.
The Afrobeats star graced the event in a lush white gown
from Lever Couture with a particularly obstructive headpiece.
The 27-year-old songstress, who co-wrote Rihanna‘s ‘Black
Panther: Wakanda Forever‘ track ‘Lift Me Up‘, which was nominated for the ‘Best
Original Song’ category, however, stole the show after her outfit literally
took up space.
‘Lift Me Up’ is a
rather soulful ‘Black Panther’ theme song that evokes deep feelings of
transcendence.
Rihanna co-wrote the song with Tems, producer Ludwig
Göransson, and director Ryan Coogler.
The artistes wrote the single as a tribute to Chadwick
Boseman, the ‘Black Panther’ actor who died in 2020.
Although Rihanna lost her category, the Nigerian started to
attract attention on social media over her puffy white gown that she wrapped
around the back of her head.
The beautiful headpiece appeared to have been a concern for
the guest seated behind Tems.
Imagine waiting your whole life to be at the Oscars and you end up sitting behind a stratus cloud. pic.twitter.com/HQ8lSYQBUV

They are dragging Tems for this outfit because they said it’s blocking other people’s view. They need to attend one Owambe in Mushin 😃 pic.twitter.com/7cDi6zf64n

Tems has continued her impressive run in the global music
landscape with a series of awards and collaborations with heavyweights in the
industry.
In February, the songstress snagged her first Grammy award for her role in ‘Wait for U’, the 2022 hit song by Future featuring Drake.

There is a difference between stealing a show and being irrsponsible: put yourself behind Tems at the last Oscars then you wkll know what i mean.
