The Annual Black Girls Rock taped on Saturday, August 5th 2017 at the New Jersey Performing Arts Center’s Prudential Hall in Newark, NJ. Lots of celebrities graced the red carpet looking absolutely fabulous! In attendance I spotted Issa Rae, Tiffany Haddish, Tyrese and many more! The event was created by celebrity DJ Beverly Bond. The event was hosted by Taraji P. Henson who was thrilled to be apart of the celebration.
This year, the three-time NAACP Award-winning “BLACK GIRLS ROCK!™” Awards celebrates “Insecure” creator, actress, writer and producer Issa Rae (Star Power Award), actress and activist Yara Shahidi (Young Gifted and Black Award), GRAMMY Award-winning songstress Roberta Flack (Living Legend Award), Wall Street powerhouse and pioneer Suzanne Shank (Shot Caller Award) and Community organizers Derrica Wilson and Natalie Wilson of The Black & Missing Foundation (Community Change Agent Award).
