How’s this for Black excellence? This year’s 52nd NAACP Image Awards — honouring people of colour across television, music, literature and film — is a week-long celebration, with five nights of virtual awards leading up to Saturday’s live broadcast.
Hosted by return emcee Anthony Anderson, the ceremony included Andra Day, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Michelle Obama, Regina King and more presenting awards, while Eddie Murphy was inducted into the NAACP Image Awards Hall of Fame (presented to him by longtime collaborator Arsenio Hall) and LeBron James will receive the President’s Award.
The preceding non-televised program was hosted by ET’s own Nischelle Turner, with awards presented by Nicole Beharie, Leslie Jones and Susan Kelechi Watson.
