Everyone stood up and gave Iris a deafening standing ovation. There was not a single person who remained on their seat. The people felt like they would be doing something very disrespectful if they remained sitting after such a beautiful and magnificent performance.
It was the loudest and longest standing ovation for a performance so far tonight. The other artists and celebrities who begrudged and didn't believe that Iris Long deserved to receive the most award nominations this year finally experienced firsthand her amazing live performance which wasn't in any way inferior to the recorded versions of her music. Not to mention that they completely lost themselves to her insanely powerful charisma and stage presence.
"Iris! Iris! Iris!"
The Black Stars didn't need to lead the chant because everyone in the audience started calling her name in unison.
