Popular American singer Tyrese gushes over Ghanaian traditional outfits

Popular American actor cum singer, Tyrese Gibson, has expressed astonishment and admiration about some Ghanaian traditional attires flaunted by Ghanaian-American sportsman Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah at an event in the United States.

Jeremiah, a football linebacker for the Cleveland Browns, made headlines with his incredible ‘gameday outfits’ at the American National Football League (NFL)’s Super Wildcard Weekend that took place a couple of weeks ago.

The 24-year-old rocked about five well-tailored Ghanaian outfits, representing various Ghanaian tribes that earned him the best-dressed player of the tournament.

He adorned himself in two types of Kente fabrics, paired with gold pendants or local beads and other accessories that exuded Ghanaian royalty.

Also, in three separate looks representing the Northern region culture, he wore a fugu-inspired outfit paired with some traditional boots and a cap.

He made another appearance in about three nicely fitted kaftan outfits, some of which had adinkra symbols boldly inscribed in them.

Jeremiah Koramoah’s looks, however, have caught the attention of Tyrese Gibson such that he has taken to Instagram to express keen interest in meeting his stylist.

The ‘why you gonna act like that’ hitmaker, shared a video slide of all of Jeremiah’s traditional outfits on Instagram with the caption, “Tag this brother…. I need his stylist… this is complete FIRE!!!!”
