Adele breaking her best album Grammy in two and giving half to Beyoncé is the biggest talking point of the 2017 awards this morning, but Cee Lo Green’s wild outfit is getting a fair few tweets too.

The singer turned up to the Staples Center in LA in head-to-toe gold, encompassing a futuristic robe and Eyes Wide Shut-esque mask.
