45th NAACP Image Awards: Red Carpet and Winners

The National Association for The Advancement of Colored People hosted the 45th NAACP Image Awards, to honor achievements on screen, yesterday, Saturday, February 22, 2014 at the Pasadena Civic Auditorium. 

Stars looked glam on the red carpet. Personally, I'm loving Lupita Nyong'o's Minnie Mouse-esque haircut. Kudos to her hairdresser, Ted Gibson, for always knowing how to sculpt those not-so-locks of hair. 

Kerry Washington also showed off her baby bump (The Scandal star is expecting baby with former NFL player hubby, Nnamdi Asomugha)

Lupita hung out with Fast and Furious stars Tyrese Gibson and Vin Diesel, Long Walk to Freedom actor Idris Elba and Fruitvale Station cutie, Michael B. Jordan.

Now, to the winners. 
Kevin Hart won big as he took home two statuettes for "Entertainer of the Year" and "Outstanding Actor in a Comedy Series".
