Teyana Taylor Shows Off Her ‘Party in the Back’ Diamond Thong During Her Speech at the 2026 Golden Globes

Taylor had tough competition with her fellow nominees including Ariana Grande (Wicked: For Good), Emily Blunt (The Smashing Machine), Amy Madigan (Weapons), Elle Fanning (Sentimental Value) and Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas (Sentimental Value).

As she got up to the podium to accept her award, she gave a little turn to show off her outfit. “Wait till you see my party in the back,” she told the audience. “I almost didn’t even write a speech. “Oh my babies, my babies are upstairs watching. Y’all better be off them damn phones and watching me right now.”

Taylor continued her speech with a message to her fellow “brown sisters and little brown girls” that were watching the awards show. “Our softness is not a liability. Our death is not that,” she said. “It’s not too much. Our light does not need permission to shine. We belong in every room we walk into. Our voices matter and our dreams deserve space.”

Prior to the event, she spoke about her role and the duality Perfidia had during an interview with Variety on January 3.

Taylor explained, “[Perfidia] makes decisions that we may not all agree with but we can all agree on the fact that she’s unapologetically herself and stands 10 toes down on a lot of things that we probably wouldn’t have been able to do at one point.”

“Especially as a woman, we’re told we’re too confident, we got to tone it down,” she continued. “Here we see this woman. It’s like ‘No, you won’t quiet me. You won’t set me down. I won’t play house with you.’”

Taylor also said she would easily sign on the dotted line for a sequel or spinoff. “[Anderson] could have shot all of it and broken it in two because it’s so much story,” she told the publication. “You could literally merge the other pieces, get a few new scenes with me — and then drop it, drop it like a mixtape!”
