Elegance is a must when attending high profile Hollywood events but Spike Lee hasn’t gotten that memo in years. The Brooklyn native rocked some custom J’s to The Golden Globes but might need some help with mastering the art of drip.

As spotted on High Snobiety the original mastermind behind the Air Jordan sneakers Tinker Hatfield designed a special pair for the esteemed creative to commemorate his last flick BlacKkKlansman. The kicks are a bold gold color to coincide with award trophy and a red lining as a nod to the red carpet. Both the midsole and outsole are shades of grey and feature “TRUTH TO POWER,” “SPEAK ON IT,” and “RESIST.” Additionally his 40 Acres And A Mule production company branding can be found on the heel.

Spike took to his Instagram account reprising his Mars Blackmon role to show off the shoes prior to attending the ceremony. “💜💜💜💜Shout Out To Da GOAT And Tinker Hatfield For My Golden Globe JORDAN’S For Da Red Carpet Tonight🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥BOOMSHACKALACKA 🎥🎥🎥🎥” he posted.

While the Jordan’s were the talk of the night Lee’s outfit reminded us yet again he is not scared of the fashion police. He wore an all purple tuxedo courtesy of Versace with a matching beret.

Unfortunately BlacKkKlansman did not land any awards in the film category. Trailer below if you missed it at the theaters.

Regina King continues to thrive and shine as a veteran actress, and her appearance in the film If Beale Street Could Talk has drawn rave reviews. King won a Golden Globe for Best Performance by an Actress in a Supporting Role for her role and in her moving acceptance speech, she challenged her industry and others to hire more women.

Deadline reports:

“Amy, thank you for the prayer,” King began her speech, nodding to fellow nominee Amy Adams. Adding “Time’s Up, times two,” King continued, “In the next two years, everything that I produce, I am making a vow, and it’s going to be tough, to make sure that everything that I produce, that it’s 50 percent women, and I just challenge anyone out there who is in a position of power … I challenge you to challenge yourselves and … do the same.”

Based on the novel by James Baldwin, If Beale Street Could Talk follows the romance of two young African-Americans, Tish (Kiki Layne) and Fonny (Stephan James), who strengthen their bond through an unexpected pregnancy and are nearly torn apart by a wrongful imprisonment. King plays Sharon Rivers, mother to Tish, who is a fierce advocate for her daughter and fights valiantly to prove Fonny’s innocence.

King also has been honored for her performance by the New York Film Critics Circle, the Los Angeles Film Critics Association, the National Board of Review, and she is nominated for an Independent Spirit Award.
