As the 80th annual Golden Globes returned to broadcast television for the first time since 2021, Black Hollywood showed up in style.
The 80th Golden Globe Awards are back for the first time since 2021 and kicked off the 2023 awards season on Tuesday night. After facing backlash for its untelevised 2022 ceremony, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA) hit the reset button with this year’s telecast, as the film and television industry’s biggest stars graced the red — well, silver — carpet in the award show’s return to network television.
With a Black host (Jerrod Carmichael), Black co-executive producers, and presenters — not to mention nominees — many predict the 80th Golden Globe awards will reflect the increasing Black presence within the industry. As we watch to see who will walk away with a Golden Globe, let’s get into the Black excellence on the event’s red carpet.

Sheryl Lee Ralph
Receiving her first Golden Globe nomination, Sheryl Lee Ralph channeled her eternal “Dreamgirl” in a sparkling and sleeveless violet gown styled by her daughter, Ivy Victoria-Maurice. Ralph’s gleaming Aliétte gown was designed by celebrity favorite Jason Rembert, who says the color was chosen to represent royalty, per E! News.
Quinta Brunson
Both extravagant and utterly feminine, Quinta Brunson showed out for her “Abbott Elementary” cast and crew in a strapless tulle gown by Christian Siriano.
Michaela Jaé Rodriguez
Last year, Michaela Jaé Rodriguez made history as the first trans person to win a Golden Globe for Best Actress in a Drama series. This year, Rodriguez returned to honor “Pose” creator and Carol Burnett Award winner Ryan Murphy in a Balmain gown styled by Micah McDonald.
Jerrod Carmichael
Host Jerrod Carmichael sported several wardrobe changes during the evening, but one of the most striking was the white double-breasted suit he paired with a matching sheer turtleneck and strand of pearls.
Angela Bassett
Dripping in jewels, Angela Bassett accepted the award for Best Supporting Actress for her role in “Wakanda Forever” — her first Golden Globe since 1993’s “What’s Love Got to Do With It” — in a dazzling silver Pamella Roland gown.
Regina Hall
Proving the look of leather can also be luxe, Regina Hall cut a sleek figure in a one-shouldered gown and fingerless gloves by Monique Lhuillier.
Billy Porter
In an ode to the velvet tuxedo gown that made headlines at the 2019 Academy Awards, Billy Porter reportedly reprised the Christian Siriano look at Ryan Murphy’s request, this time in a vibrant fuchsia version, playfully paired with cornrows.
Rihanna and A$AP Rocky
Partners in love and fashion, Best Song nominee Rihanna (for “Wakanda Forever”‘s “Lift Me Up”) and A$AP Rocky once again showed off their enviable couples style, this time in classic black, with the new mom sporting a Schiaparelli gown with a voluminous velvet cape detail.
