Earlier this month, she won a Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actress in One Battle After Another and was nominated in the same category at the Critics Choice Awards. And then, of course, there’s her Oscar nomination for her performance in the Paul Thomas Anderson film, which also stars Leonardo DiCaprio, Chase Infiniti, Benicio Del Toro, Regina Hall and Sean Penn.
After her Golden Globes win, the singer-songwriter emphasized to E! News how she had to remain “grounded and patient” to achieve this success, explaining, “To see everything pay off, to see that patience pay off, it makes you feel so good. I have no regrets.”
The mom of two—she shares two daughters, 10-year-old Iman and 5-year-old Rue, with ex Iman Shumpert—also said she was glad to have received her kids’ full attention during her big moment after joking in her acceptance speech that they “better not” be on their phones.
“It was so cute because they were actually in the lobby,” Teyana revealed. "It was so crazy. As soon as I see my daughter afterward she was like, ‘See, Mommy, we wasn’t on our phones!’”
Teyana’s performances aren’t the only thing winning award season so far. Keep reading to see how she has also rocked the red carpet with her show-stopping looks.
