I love throwing my hair into a nice, fancy updo every now and again, but I think EJAE just convinced me that I've been doing braided ponytails wrong this entire time.
The singer and K-Pop Demon Hunters star was a guest at the 2026 Gold Gala on May 9, where she served mermaid glam in a strapless, baby blue gown with floral embroidery and a basque waist. To match her satin dress, she wore a pearl manicure with a milky white base color underneath a blue-ish chrome powder—but her glazed nails weren't even the best part of the look. She wore a dark winged eyeliner and a nude lip, and she pulled her black hair back into a high ponytail that was separated into not one but two long braids.
