Overview

  • During a June 24 appearance on Today with Jenna & Friends, Niecy Nash-Betts joked that she still holds a grudge against Colman Domingo for his bright yellow-and-black officiant ensemble.
  • Domingo officiated Nash-Betts’s August 2020 backyard ceremony to Jessica Betts, which was attended by just 24 guests.
  • Nash-Betts recalled poking fun at Domingo’s checkered top, white sneakers and bold suit, calling him a “beautiful bumblebee” rather than a wedding officiant.
  • She quipped that his recent role as co-chair of the 2025 Met Gala reveals a fashion sensibility she wished he’d brought to her wedding.
  • The two have been close friends since co-starring in the 2014 film Selma, and Nash-Betts emphasized the intimacy of her small backyard ceremony with her soulmate, musician Jessica Betts.
