Stars wearing white roses for Grammys in solidarity with #MeToo movement
Many celebrities were spotted either wearing a white rose or holding a single white rose in their hands.
New York: Stars, including Lady Gaga and Kelly Clarkson, turned out on the Grammys red carpet Sunday displaying white roses in solidarity with the Time’s Up and #MeToo movements against sexual misconduct.
Gaga was in a black lace top and leggings with a full skirt and train, white rose in place and her hair swept into a fishtail braid with black pins. Rita Ora also wowed in black, She, too, had a white rose pinned on.
There were lots of black, perhaps spillover from the anti-sexual misconduct message of the recent Golden Globes, but there was also plenty of color.
Multiple-nominee Sza was accompanied by her grandmother and donned embellished white, her hair loose and natural. Cardi B made a big statement in white with a short tiered dress and train. Sam Smith was in a green suit, yes he wore the rose and a red scoop-neck shirt underneath, Rapper K. Flay, in a black tuxedo jacket, chose a Time’s Up button instead of the flower but noted all such symbols are important expressions of solidarity for women. Songwriter Diane Warren, a 15-time Grammy nominee, wore black and white and went her own way on symbols. She wore white gloves with “Girl” on one hand and “Power” on the other, explaining: “I didn’t want to wear the rose. I’m a rebel.” Nominees The Secret Sisters won for largest white roses, noting it’s time for the music industry to step up and better acknowledge sexual misconduct.@Camila_Cabello is one of many celebrities sporting a white rose ???? at the #GRAMMYs tonight in support of the #MeToo movement. pic.twitter.com/8UmCsS9Y4q
