@Zernia Rose Yes indeed.  H.E.R. and Saweetie too!  Let's not forget them.  Jhene has been around a little longer than H.E.R. though.  My son (in his 30's) put me on to Jhene years ago.  She's been doing her thing for a while.

@gertrudecloset The young man who performed with Bruno Mars for the Grammys- a retro song reminiscent of soul groujps from the 1960s-- is also Asian American/Black and pretty popular in South Korea if I recall correctly.  The two have a long-awaited album. There are quite a few now.

Both the gown & she are lovely, but how can she walk with the gown so long?

@aubnwa01 likely the same way a bride with a train would.  It will trail behind her.  Surely you've seen long flowy dresses on other stars on the red carpet?  They manage fine.

 

I think you're allowed to gather it up and climb the stairs too.  

 

Here's another example of this common theme on the red carpet:
