Tony Award nominees Lupita Nyong’o& Cynthia Erivo are scooping up awards and making media rounds in NYC. Come inside to see what the YBF chicks are up to…
It almost time for the Tony Awards! But before we find out which YBF chicks will bring home awards, two nominees are currently making their rounds before the show that’s set to debut June 12th.
After hitting up the Lilly Awards, Lupita Nyong’o made her way to the 61st Annual Obie Awards at Webster Hall Monday evening that recognized the actors doing it big on Broadway. The Tony Award nominee was all about florals in a full-length purple Prada dress with a pleated skirt accented with yellow and white flowers paired with white pumps.
YAS!
The “Eclipsed" cast was also on the scene bringing the FAB. Stars Zainab Jah, Saycon Sengbloh, Akosua Busia, and Pascale Armand posed it up on the red carpet serving #BlackGirlMagic.
Tony Award winner Tamara Tunie, who starred in Danai Gurira’s play FAMILIAR, snapped it up with “Eclipsed” playwright and Broadway starlet Danai Gurira, styling in an ALTUZARRA sequin tank and midi skirt, were all smiles on the carpet.
Tamara Tunie won an award in the Performance category for her role in FAMILIAR. Holding her award, she posed it up alongside Tony Award nominated actor Norm Lewis, who stars on "Scandal."
Lupita and the "Eclipsed" cast took center stage to accept their award in the Performance category.
Congrats!
"Eclipsed" is still running at the John Golden Theatre.
Another Tony Award nominee on the move....
Tony Award nominee Cynthia Erivo appeared on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” Monday night as she was tapped to perform.
“The Color Purple” starlet looked amazing in a gold strapless peplum top pencil midi dress that she paired with white sparkly pumps as she made her way inside the studio.
Chile! Cynthia SLAYED our entire lives with a powerful performance of “I’m Here” from the Broadway musical for her television debut. Check it:
Leaving the studio, Cynthia stopped to snap a few flicks in another fab look. Loves it.
You can catch Cynthia in "The Color Purple" at the Bernard B. Jacobs Theatre now.
