First Annual Essence Black Women In Hollywood luncheon

While the crowning jewel of award season, the Academy Awards, are Sunday this whole week is full of actors rewarding each other including yesterday’s First Annual Essence Black Women In Hollywood luncheon. Jada Pinkett Smith was one of the women of the afternoon and Will was on hand to present the award to his wife for everything that she has done in Hollywood. Tom and Katie (love her shoes) were there to help celebrate and speak about their friend alongside Kerry Washington, Gabrielle Union and Vivica A. Fox just to name a few. Best Supporting Actress Oscar nominee and possible record-breaker Ruby Dee also received an award at the luncheon and who knows, her mantel may be even more full by the end of the weekend!

  Great Pictures as always. Tom & Katie have great friends because they are great people. I really wish I could meet both of them, but don’t we all. I wonder if they will be at the Oscars. Hollywood has a bad habit of passing up the fans favorite movies and actors year after year!!! I just hope that someday I will see Tom get an Oscar. He gives 110% with every role he plays. He has deserved an Oscar for so many roles he has played. Born On The 4th Of July for sure and many, many others. He has won some Peoples Choice Awards. What does that tell you? It says Hollywood is not tuned in to what the Fans think. I hope he is at the Oscars. I remember when Paul Newman finally got an Oscar for “The Color Of Money” which also stared our Tom. Tom Cruise stood up and gave Paul Newman a standing ovation and everyone else stood up with him. Tom Cruise thinks the world of Paul Newman. I know that here in Minnesota near Brainerd, Paul has a place he comes to in the summer and Tom visits him there quite often and yes I am still looking for the place. Tom Cruise AND Paul Newman!!! Can we say WOW. Anyway thanks for all the great pictures you just shared with us. LOVE THEM ALL!!!!
