“Priscilla’s wedding served us better looks- Tacha Criticizes Burna Boy, Tems, and Others Over ‘Underwhelming’ Met Gala Looks

Tacha Akide, a reality television star and media figure, has ignited a social media debate with her candid critique of Nigerian celebrities’ fashion at the 2025 Met Gala.

In a video posted on her platform, the former BBNaija contestant openly criticized Tems, Ayra Starr, and Burna Boy, labeling their fashion selections as ‘disappointing’ at this prestigious global style event.

Tacha emphasized that her remarks were made out of affection, asserting:

“So the Nigerians at the Met Gala did not represent, and this is coming from a place of love. You know I love Ayra Starr and Tems, and I’m crazy about Burna Boy, but trust me, they didn’t represent at all. Just had to say it!”

She singled out Tems first, saying she couldn’t understand the concept behind her look.

“Girl, I get that the outfit was Oswald Boteng, but it’s very clear you weren’t their first choice because I’m not even understanding this outfit at all. Haven’t you heard of Veekee James or Swanky Jerry? They would have brought the moon down for your outfit with pure creativity,” She added.

Turning to Ayra Starr, Tacha said the Gen Z Afrobeats star did not meet expectations.

“You’re our future of Afrobeats, our Gen Z baddie. You cannot be wearing that to the Met Gala. It’s giving last-minute or like you weren’t even informed. The look is giving Mary Amaka. Please don’t do it again.”

Even Burna Boy, who is widely praised for his red carpet style, did not escape Tacha’s critique.

“Burna Boy, you always kill the red carpet—what happened? You never miss, but this time, you did. We love you, but next time, let’s come correct.”

She concluded by making a bold comparison, saying:

“Let’s not even lie, even Priscilla’s wedding served us better looks. One thing Nigerians are known for is music and also fashion sense. I love my people, but someone had to say it.”
