Even her styling whispered quiet rebellion. Her hair, softly curled by Yluxe, and her warm, bronzed makeup by Kayla Perez, kept the focus on her presence rather than flashy theatrics. Because when you’re making history, you don’t need gimmicks, you just need to be seen.  

 

Surely, as the applause echoed through the room, one thing was clear: Tems wasn’t just collecting an award. She was claiming her place in the story of music. And if this night was any indication, she’s only just begun.
