Janelle Monáe just stepped out in customized MSCHF boots during the 2023 NBA All-Star Weekend. Of course, their style and ability to keep up with (and set) trends is no doubt impressive. As such, it's only fitting that their embrace of the viral Big Red Boots should come with a twist. Furthermore, artist Kevin Rejtö Lowry painted the custom "Float" boots for Janelle, referencing their latest comeback single. Moreover, it's a sky-blue background with various clouds floating over the shoe, making for a beautiful sight. Also, Monáe combined them perfectly with a sky-blue "Float" varsity jacket and blue-white shades.

However, the 37-year-old's fashion talents didn't necessarily translate into a high-scoring Celebrity All-Star performance. Even though Monáe played defense on their opponents while the singer's team had possession, they still had a good time. "Nah fr that was bucket list," they tweeted after the game. "I got cut from my team as a kid (it was traumatic!) and now I’m laughing. Thank you @NBAAllStar for having meeeee." Also, Rolling Stone reported that Dwyane Wade (who ran Monáe's team) told them to step up at one point. “When we down here, I need you to be ready to score,” he allegedly said.
Despite Monáe's hooping skills, they certainly impress with their fashion every time. What's more is that there were plenty of other people on their team who carried that weight already. For example, in almost prophetic fashion, 21 Savage scored Team Wade's 21st point with a clean three-pointer. Their team, coached by Giannis Antetokuonmpo, faced Utah Jazz governor Ryan Smith's team, under Fat Joe's coaching. Moreover, Monáe went head-to-head with Cordae, Ozuna, DK Metcalf, and many more.
Meanwhile, the Kansas City artist recently returned to music with their "Float" single, during which they boast in classic, confident Janelle fashion. Came back from the future to take all y’all n***as and take all y’all h*es," they rap. "They said I was bi, yeah, baby, I’m bi, a whole ‘nother coast / She stay in the Hills, he stay in Atlanta, I paid for them both / My face card don’t come with a limit, I swipe it, I spend it, I swear I be doin’ the most." Check out their new track above and return to HNHH for the latest greatness from Janelle Monáe.
