Singer's choice of Oscars attire causes online stir

March 13, 2023

A singer's choice of Oscars attire is causing a stir online.

Many people think Tems' tall white dress wasn't the best choice for the glitzy Hollywood ceremony.

The Nigerian singer-songwriter stunned in her fashionable dress on the newly created champagne carpet.

However, some believed it was less practical for those sitting behind her once inside the Dolby Theatre.

"There's this lady in the Oscars audience wearing a white dress that blocks the view of like 15 people behind her and I can't stop laughing," one person wrote on Twitter.

"Ooh, I’d hate to be sat behind the woman in the white dress," another commented.

"That women in the white dress is very inconsiderate of others being able to see the stage," a Twitter post reads.

There were plenty of people complimenting Tems on her attire as well.

"Tems is absolutely stunning!! she’s easily the best dressed."

The ceremony began with host Jimmy Kimmel taking jibes at last year's Will Smith slap drama.

If anyone tried any violence this year, he said, “You will be awarded the Oscar for best actor and permitted to give a 19-minute-long speech.”

But Kimmel said anyone who wanted to “get jiggy with it” this year will have to come through a fearsome battalion of bodyguards, including Michael B. Jordan, Michelle Yeoh, Steven Spielberg and his show's “security guard” Guillermo Rodriguez.
