Mary J. Blige came to slay. The actress, nominated for two Oscars this evening, arrived at Sunday’s show in a beaded white Versace gown and Christian Louboutin heels. The larger-than-life style icon worked with Law Roach to put together the ensemble.
Blige is nominated for best supporting actress for her role in Mudbound. She is up against fellow nominees Allison Janney (I, Tonya), Lesley Manville (Phantom Thread), Laurie Metcalf (Lady Bird) and Octavia Spencer (The Shape of Water). Her song, “Mighty River,” co-written with Raphael Saadiq for Mudbound, is also nominated for best song.
The 90th Academy Awards, hosted by Jimmy Kimmel, airs live on ABC at 5:00 p.m. PT/8:00 p.m. ET.
