Cynthia Erivo and Kelly Rowland lead the glam at the Celebration of Black Cinema & Television in LA

Cynthia Erivo and Kelly Rowland lead the glam at the 7th Annual Celebration of Black Cinema & Television, which was held at the Fairmont Century Plaza in Los Angeles on Monday night.

The British 37-year-old – who’s only an Oscar away from EGOT status – was there to receive the Actress Award Film for her performance in Universal Pictures’ hit musical Wicked.

Cynthia certainly looked leggy in a black-sequin gown beneath a witchy jacket featuring large belled sleeves as well as patent leather pumps selected by stylist Jason Bolden.

Make-up artist Joanna Simkin fully contoured Erivo’s complexion and applied her silver eye shadow, false lashes, cat eyeliner, and brown lip liner.

It was mere hours after the Defying Gravity belter earned a Golden Globe Award nomination for best actress in a motion picture (musical or comedy) for her performance as the Wicked Witch of the West, Elphaba Thropp.

‘Now that my feet are hovering off the ground, I cannot even come close to properly expressing what this moment means to me,’ Cynthia – who boasts 3.2M social media followers – wrote via Instastory.

‘Not just because of this individual nomination, but because I get to watch as this project and my @wickedmovie family are being celebrated too. Being a part of this project has been a dream come true, and playing Elphaba, a woman who speaks to everyone who has ever felt like they don’t belong and lets them know they have the power to defy gravity, has been the honor of a lifetime.’

Erivo faces heavy competition against The Substance’s Demi Moore, Emilia Pérez’s Karla Sofía Gascón, Anora’s Mikey Madison, Challengers’ Zendaya, and Nightbi***’s Amy Adams.

‘Being named alongside you powerhouses is one of the truest honors of them all,’ the daughter of Nigerian immigrants continued.

‘And I can’t wait [to] be in a room celebrating you all! Congratulations, ladies!’

One person congratulating Cynthia on the red carpet was Oscar winner Regina King.

Erivo – who’s dating The Chi creator Lena Waithe – and the 53-year-old former child star shared a long embrace and beamed as they talked closely together.

The A Little Night Music thespian previously won prizes for Wicked at the Astra Film and Creative Arts Awards, Palm Springs Film Festival, and National Board of Review.

Next year, Cynthia will executive produce and star as London defense attorney Tessa in Susanna White’s big-screen adaptation of the play Prime Facie.

Erivo will also voice a character called The Slink in Disney Jr. animated series Robogobo, which centers on a boy genius and his adopted five misfit pets.
