Regina Hall was being honored with an award, so her bestie Sanaa Lathan not only tagged along, but introduced her during the ceremony. Peep their bestie behavior, plus highlights from Regina's speech inside...
20 years after meeting on the set of The Best Man, Sanaa Lathan and Regina Hall are still two peas in a Hollywood pod. Loves it!
Regina was being honored with the Inspiration Award at Step Up's 14 annual Inspiration Awards held at Beverly Wilshire Four Seasons Hotel recently. And she had Sanaa by her side to celebrate.
The YBF baddies hit the carpet together and served up #BlackGirlMagic effortlessly. Seriously, both ladies are in their 40s and they literally still look like they did in the first Best Man film.
"Had the pleasure of honoring my bestie @MoreReginaHall today at the Step Up inspiration awards," Sanaa captioned on Instagram."It’s an amazing organization that propels girls in communities to fulfill their potential by empowering them. So proud of u Regina! You inspire me & so many others. Congrats!"
Gotta love two successful black women supporting one another.
If you didn't know, Sanaa shaved her head bald for her role in the upcoming Netflix film, Nappily Ever After.
It's growing out and we're loving the mini 'fro action as well.
After receiving her award, she sat down with ABC Entertainment President Channing Dungey - the woman we can thank for firing seemingly racist Roseanne Barr - to speak before a group of young people and female alumnae, who are a part of the Los Angeles based mentoring program Step Up.
The Girls Trip actress dropped a few gems that they all could use:
“We’re in a time of social media so I encourage our beautiful young girls to pursue excellence, not likes,” Regina said. “It’s really easy to look and compare yourself but who you are is so incredibly powerful. And you don’t have to look, think or be like anyone. You just have to love to your highest degree and pursue your highest best. And that shouldn’t be compared to anything.”
All facts.
