While the afternoon centered on honoring the incredible achievements of Black women in entertainment, for the 19th annual ESSENCE Black Women in Hollywood event on March 13, 2026, the men showed up in style to support, celebrate, and take in the moment right alongside them. From the red carpet to the ballroom, they brought sharp tailoring, good energy, and plenty of love. Both fine fellas and fashion-isters in one room.

Some stepped out to celebrate the incredible women being honored, while others simply came to soak up the energy of the moment—and the style didn’t disappoint either. From Michael B. Jordan and Tyriq Withers to Boris Kodjoe and Aldis Hodge, Tyrese and Durand Bernarr, the carpet and the room were filled with brothas of all walks. And of course, a few familiar faces from the ESSENCE family were also in the mix, celebrating the occasion right alongside everyone else.

The 2026 ESSENCE Black Women in Hollywood event is available to stream on ESSENCE’s YouTube starting Saturday, March 14: Watch Here
