The 2018 MET Gala held yesterday in New York and as expected, the biggest names in Music, Fashion, Movies and entertainment were all present.
The Metropolitan Art Museum venue for the event was filled by the stars who impressively represented the theme for fashion’s biggest night which was ‘Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination‘.
While there are indeed many things to talk about the night, the biggest gist so far will be the iconic selfie by Nigerian Amercian named Terry Omisayan. Terry was able to capture two of the world’s biggest female rap stars, Nicki Minaj and Cardi B on one selfie, thereby signifying the end of their purported beef, at least for now. The photo which he shared via his handle (@musicisterry) has since become viral and has been posted by many top international Hip-hop and entertainment music websites.

However, before today, nothing really is known about this Nigerian and its a wonder how come he was present at the high-profile event and close enough to the world stars for this selfie.
Terry Omisanya a YouTuber and interviewer who is based in New York. With just 170 subscribers, it is safe to say that he is still at the early stages of his career. in fact, there is very little information about him on the internet. But by capturing this moment, Omisanya has already put his name in the history books and has perhaps kicked off his career in the big stage.

In a brief interview clip shortly after his iconic selfie went viral, the man he had to say: “…I straight told them., I said to them this moment right here is bigger than the MET Gala, in 20 years, this would be very important. And I asked if we can capture it… now we viral.”
Terry Omisanya is a proud Nigerian who identifies with his home country to the fullest. Just 5 days before the MET Gala, he shared a video of him in a Nigerian parade, saying he is looking forward to the 2018 Nigerian Independence Day Parade in New York.
In other photos from the MET Gala Night, the now famous Nigerian also shared selfies of himself and Childsh Gambino and also one with Janelle Monae.
