Nigerian singer Tems has spoken out about the viral incident involving her dress at the 2023 Oscars, refuting claims that she obstructed anyone’s view during the ceremony.

In an exclusive interview with Harper’s Bazaar, Tems provided insight into her eye-catching fashion choice, a flowing white dress, and the subsequent controversy.

Reflecting on her debut at the Academy Awards, Tems described her reaction to the dress, saying, “This dress, the famous dress… It was a huge deal, and it was my first Oscars. When I first saw this dress, I thought, ‘This is quite much, this is quite a lot for me. It looks like a cloud or a flowing stream.’ I felt like a princess in the dress, and people were taking pictures of me even if they didn’t know me. Even prestigious old white men took pictures with me, thinking I looked cute.”

The dress became a viral sensation as some believed it obstructed the view of other attendees with its large hood.

Tems clarified the situation, explaining that a lack of time prevented her from changing into her second outfit.

Concluding her account, Tems noted, “When I meet anyone in fashion, they’re like, ‘Oh yeah, you’re the girl, you’re the one who caused all that trouble that day.”

Billionaire’s daughter Temi Otedola and singer Mr Eazi open up on stress, disagreements before settling on three destination weddings

Temi Otedola and singer Mr Eazi have opened up about the intense stress, back-and-forth, and disagreements they went through before finally agreeing on the countries for their destination weddings.

According to the couple, planning three weddings across three countries within just three months was anything but easy.

“Three weddings in three months is insane,” they admitted, revealing how overwhelming the entire process became, especially with one event following closely after the other.

Temi shared that their original idea was to have a quiet court wedding in Nigeria. But privacy quickly became an issue.

“If we went to the courthouse in Nigeria, it wouldn’t be as private as we wanted,” she explained.

An alternative was suggested — bringing the court officials into their living room for a private civil ceremony. Temi found the idea interesting, but Mr Eazi wasn’t fully convinced.

That disagreement pushed them back to the drawing board.

Eventually, they settled on Monaco for their civil wedding, a choice Temi described as more sentimental. The UK was also considered at some point, but Temi admitted it didn’t feel personal enough to her.

What shocked her the most, however, was the reality of marriage paperwork.

“I thought getting married was just deciding and signing papers,” Temi said. “I didn’t know there was a mountain of administration.”

John Cena’s in-ring WWE career officially ended on Saturday night at the Capital One Arena in Washington, D.C., bringing down the curtain on more than two decades at the top of professional wrestling.

The farewell headlined the final WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event of 2025 and delivered a definitive, emotional conclusion to one of the industry’s most influential careers.

Cena’s last match saw him submit to Gunther after a punishing, near 24-minute main event that blended intensity, respect and finality.

The crowd remained fully invested throughout, rallying behind Cena in the hope of a last-gasp victory that never came.

While the result shocked many in attendance, the post-match atmosphere quickly shifted to appreciation as Cena addressed the crowd, surrounded by WWE talent and staff.

Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes faced NXT Champion Oba Femi in the opening bout, but interference from Drew McIntyre led to a disqualification finish.

Despite the short runtime, Femi emerged as a clear winner in perception, making him a future main-event player.

Meanwhile, Sol Ruca delivered one of the standout performances of the night, defeating Bayley in a result that felt less like an upset and more like a statement.

Her athletic offence and confidence marked her as a rising force in the women’s division.

The final match before Cena’s farewell featured World Tag Team Champions AJ Styles and Dragon Lee against Je’Von Evans and TNA X-Division Champion Leon Slater.

Despite the difficult slot ahead of the main event, the bout delivered action and kept the crowd engaged.

Cena exits WWE having helped elevate the company to new commercial heights, while deliberately leaving the spotlight to the next wave of stars.
