Ariana DeBose should make red her signature color because the Afro-Latina star looks stunning in her most recent outing. The actor supported the season four premiere of HBO’s Westworld in New York on Tuesday night, rocking a plunging gown with shoulder ruffles.The 31-year-old West Side Story star and Oscar winner joined the event alongside Evan Rachel Wood and Tessa Thompson.

Jenelle Riley Deputy Awards, Features EditorWhen Lorne Michaels first heard the pitch for “Schmigadoon!,” the comedic love letter to the Golden Age musicals of the 1940s and 50s, he didn’t have to look far for his leading lady – he offered it to “Saturday Night Live” star Cecily Strong. Asked why, Michaels simply states: “I didn’t think of anyone else.”Having seen the show, the first season of which premiered last year on Apple TV Plus, it’s obvious why Strong was the right match for Melissa Gimble, a New York City doctor who finds herself and boyfriend Josh Skinner (Keegan-Michael Key) trapped in a mystical land, only able to leave when they find true love.

Chanel Iman and Ariana DeBose were among the celebrities and high-profile people to attend Saturday's showcase from the New York City-based contemporary clothing company. The fashion label, which is a go-to for the Hilton sisters, also brought out the likes of such stars of the screen as Lea Michele, Busy Philipps and Cuba Gooding Jr. Hilton, 38, who is expecting her third child with husband James Rothschild, proudly put her growing baby bump on display in a baby blue dress that came complete with a plunging neckline and opening around her midriff.

Jennifer Maas TV Business WriterBroadway returned to broadcast — and streaming — Sunday with the 75th annual Tony Awards. The show’s first ever live coast-to-coast telecast drew 3.86 million viewers for its three-hour portion on CBS, according to special time-zone adjusted Live + Same Day Nielsen data.Like last year’s special edition in September, the four-hour ceremony kicked off with an exclusive start on Paramount+, before CBS joined in. But unlike the fall 2021 show that was just two-hours long on network TV, the 2022 Tonys saw its CBS broadcast restored to a full three hours.

Tony Awards returned to Radio City Music Hall, where relaxed mask mandates made it easier than ever (OK, easier than last year’s ceremony) to spot the stars mixing and mingling during Broadway’s biggest night.For some, it was an opportunity to reunite with old friends; for others, it was a rare chance to meet luminaries they’ve only admired from afar. Before the broadcast began, “Spring Awakening” co-stars Lea Michele and Jonathan Groff walked through the front door holding hands.

Jessica Chastain, Paris Jackson, Vanessa Hudgens, and Ariana DeBose lead the red carpet glamour on Broadway’s biggest night in NYC. The 75th Annual Tony Awards took place on Sunday, June 12 at Radio City Music Hall.

Gaten Matarazzo looked loved up with girlfriend Elizabeth Yu as the pair hit the red carpet at this year's Tony Awards.

The actor wore a rich brown blazer and matching trousers, with the jacket having a black trim and combined perfectly with a black buttoned shirt, black bowtie, and black loafers.

Gordon Cox Theater EditorBroadway celebrated its first full season after the COVID lockdown with the 75th annual Tony Awards, hosted by a newly minted Oscar winner and spotlighting stage work that included a media-darling frontrunner (“A Strange Loop”), a historical pop confection (“Six”), a King of Pop bio-musical (“MJ”) and an epic look at the roots of American capitalism (“The Lehman Trilogy”). Much of the ceremony played out as expected, but as ably hosted by “Hamilton” alum Ariana DeBose, the night still provided plenty of moments for theater fans to remember.(1) Early wins for “Six and “MJ” prepped the audience for a night of surprises — which didn’t quite materialize.A number of Tony predictions (including ours) suggested “Six” had a shot at the award for Best Score, so that win, in itself, wasn’t much of a surprise.

Tony Awards.On Sunday night, almost nobody at Radio City Music Hall bothered to stand up for the late Stephen Sondheim.After a far too modest tribute to the legendary composer/lyricist of “West Side Story” “Gypsy,” “Sweeney Todd,” “Into The Woods,” “A Little Night Music” and many others, who died in November at age 91, sung by Bernadette Peters, only a handful of show people begrudgingly got to their feet.For one of the greatest musical theater composers of all time. Who gave his entire life to Broadway.

2022 Tony Awards on Sunday as members of the Broadway community gathered at Radio City Music Hall to celebrate Broadway’s return after the COVID-19 pandemic.Hosted by Academy Award winner and Tony nominee Ariana DeBose, the night was full of performances by the musicals that made up the night’s best musical category.Viewers were also treated to a reunion of the 2007 cast of Duncan Sheik’s “Spring Awakening” as well as a moving tribute to the late Stephen Sondheim, who died in November at 91.DeBose, 31, opened the show with a mash-up of some of Broadway’s greatest hits including the likes of “Cabaret,” “Bye Bye Birdie,” “Evita,” “The Wiz,” “Chicago,” “Hamilton,” — which included a shoutout to Lin-Manuel Miranda — “Rent” and “Hairspray.”Now THAT is how you kick off the #TonyAwards!
