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)
