A Chanel dinner in NYC. A documentary premiere. And Wizkid in the mix like it’s second nature.
Fresh off the premiere of Wizkid: Long Live Lagos at the Tribeca Film Festival, the star showed up to the 18th annual Tribeca Festival Artists Dinner hosted by Chanel—because apparently, being a global music icon wasn’t enough for the week. Now he’s adding Chanel-approved dinner guest to the list.
The soirée, which brings together award-winning filmmakers and the artists who created original works for the festival, was packed with Hollywood’s finest. Blake Lively was there. Robert De Niro? Of course. Jon Hamm, Whitney Peak, Anna Osceola—and Wizkid, who pulled up like he belonged (because he did).
Let’s not forget the real moment: Wizkid: Long Live Lagos isn’t just a music documentary. It’s a love letter to his city, his sound, and the story behind the stardom. With appearances from Femi Kuti, Julie Adenuga, and Jada P, the film traces how a kid from Surulere became a legend with stadiums on his checklist and Lagos in his lyrics.
The Chanel dinner was a fitting follow-up—culture meeting couture, and Wizkid sitting right where he should be: in the heart of it.
