Jennifer asked Tems the motive behind the show-stopping outfit she wore to the prestigious ceremony and why she decided to obstruct the view of other guests behind her.
Tems revealed that the stage was high and her outfit did not cause any hindrance to other guests at the occasion.
She also said that she intended to change the famous attire into another one when she got to the hall. However, her stylist could not follow her into the hall as she was ‘kidnapped’ outside the venue.

The Me and U crooner added that her phone’s battery was dead and she had to leave it inside the bus. Hence, she had no choice but to wear the daunting outfit into the hall. She also performed Love Me Jeje for the audience at the Jennifer Hudson Show, which excited them.
