Tems speaks about her dress. The beautiful Nigerian singer, songwriter, and performer Tems have finally revealed the reason she chose her dress. The beautiful dress she wore to the award ceremony sparked a lot of controversial takes. Following the fact that dress caused a major obstruction for those sitting behind the singer.
Some viewers called her and her stylist out, for being inconsiderate and lacking creativity to provide alternatives. Despite several comments online in support or against her chosen style of outfit. Tems had this to say.
According to her, “Two years ago I would have said no to this dress. But it’s my first Oscar- I am going to go all out. I really wanted to make the most of the day. The dress is also my way of celebrating my work and the people around me. Celebrating my country and celebrating the people that are rooting for me. This dress says “Yes Yes I’m here!”
“If I see a limitation, I cure it. Any limitation I find in myself or things that are hindering progress, I reject that. My normal state of being is without limitations. Who I am is without limitations. Limitation is a foreign thing to me. I’m going to go and go and go and go and reach and reach till I literally cannot anymore. Which is like till I die, like till the grave”
“All of this to me is an open door. Not just for me but for everybody who is from where I’m from. If I can do it, they can do it. I’m happy that I got to f!ght and I want to let people know that they should f!ght. Especially for every single thing that they believe in. It’s not easy, but once you have a plan, once you know who you are and where you’re going. Every single thing sorts itself out”.
