Billy Porter stole the spotlight at the 2020 Grammys in a luxurious turquoise suit.
However, the show-stopping feature was his hata blue headpiece with a silver fringe doubling up as a curtain. The silver detailing could be swept aside using a remote control for the whole dramatic reveal.
In a tweet, Porter wrote that his outfit was designed by Scott Studenberg, while the hat was custom-made by Sokol Millinery.
While Porters hat looked impressive, it also sparked a bunch of memes on Twitter, with many social media users finding alternative uses for the headgear.
The motorized fringe could, for instance, provide privacy to the wearer and create a dramatic entrance when he or she is ready to reveal themselves. Check out some of the funniest Billy Porter memes below.
