Diamond Platnumz, the Tanzanian music sensation, is under fire online after his outfit to fellow artiste Juma Jux’s wedding finale in Tanzania went viral for all the wrong reasons.
NaijNaira learnt the JP2025 event drew major attention as Diamond arrived late, dressed in an all-white suit that clashed with the black-and-gold dress code. To top it off, he wore a white studded veil—drawing immediate social media criticism and sparking jokes about whether he was auditioning for the role of the bride.
While some admired the flamboyant style, others were far from impressed. The veil, in particular, became the focus of ridicule. Comments quickly flooded in, with one user writing, “My son just said ‘Is he a bride? Why does he have a veil on his head?’”
Diamond’s choice of attire seemed to overshadow the event, shifting attention from the couple to his entrance. His white ensemble stood in stark contrast to the agreed theme and left many confused.
The backlash came not just from Tanzanians, but also Nigerians who had previously celebrated Diamond for his grand gesture at Priscilla Ojo’s wedding, where he was seen showering actress Iyabo Ojo with $100 bills during the after-party.
Here are some of the reactions shared on social media:
- @ussymay4: “Wahala, is he the bride?”
- @tildajohn2.0: “Outfit is giving groom-bride.”
- @hameedahadayi: “Our drama guy. Diamond too funny abeg.”
- @2025_a_year_of_progress: “Make this marriage better last oo, una no go disturb our timeline for a month.”
The attention-grabbing outfit seems to have once again reminded fans of Diamond’s flair for the dramatic. Whether loved or loathed, one thing is certain—he knows how to make an entrance.
