K-pop singer Ejae says Leonardo DiCaprio contributed to her nerves during her BAFTA Film Awards appearance. She describes experiencing vocal mistakes while performing “Golden,” attributing part of her difficulty to the pressure of being in front of celebrities.
Both outlets report that Ejae reflects on the challenge of performing at the BAFTAs, where she is positioned with high-profile attendees. Rolling Stone and NME both focus on her account that DiCaprio’s presence made her nervous, which she connects to the performance issues. The reporting also places her comments alongside discussion of the larger visibility and attention surrounding her career.
The sources also briefly note Ejae’s broader context, including the popularity of her work and her connection to Netflix’s animated series “K-pop Demon Hunters.” While neither outlet challenges her account, the emphasis differs: both stress her nervousness at the BAFTAs, and NME additionally highlights her reflections on success tied to the Netflix hit.
