Hollywood Confidential throws a star-studded bash for Loretta Devine, because apparently 30 years of Waiting to Exhale wasn’t enough praise! 🎉
Join TV Producer Steve Jones and his merry band of industry veterans as they pat themselves on the back for over a decade of guiding lost creatives. Past honorees include a who’s who of black excellence: Lupita, Regina, Angela, Issa, Keke, and Snoop. Basically, if you’ve won an Oscar or have a catchy name, you’re in!
On Friday, February 27th from 7-9pm, Hollywood Confidential will give Loretta Devine the VANGUARD Award (because apparently “Lifetime Achievement” was too basic). They’ll celebrate her iconic roles in The Preacher’s Wife, Grey’s Anatomy, This Christmas, Dreamgirls, and of course, the groundbreaking Waiting to Exhale. Special guests will be there, probably just to remind everyone they know Loretta too.
Best part? It’s FREE! But if you want to sit your butt in a guaranteed seat, cough up some cash for preferred seating. Doors open at 6pm sharp, so don’t be fashionably late or you’ll be stuck standing in the back like a peasant.
