To open the event, singer Audra Day led the evening in a touching prayer to bring everyone together. As guests enjoyed dinner and special Oscar-themed cocktails by Rémy Martin Cognac, Common made a toast congratulating the black filmmakers, producers, and actors at this year’s Oscar’s Awards show. After dinner, Tiffany Haddish two-stepped the night away catching a quick dance with Mary J. Blige. Gabrielle Union came later in the evening and had a 10-minute conversation with Common gushing about his work.
