Celebrating its 55th anniversary this year, the NAACP Image Awards continue to be a shining beacon of Black excellence when it comes to highlighting creatives and projects other awards shows tend to overlook. This year's nominees include Colman Domingo, Halle Bailey, Usher, Fantasia Barrino-Taylor, and Keke Palmer - all up for Entertainer of the Year, the ceremony's top prize.
Honorary awards will be bestowed at the ceremony, with winners revealed during the two-hour live TV special, airing March 16 on BET and CBS from the Shrine Auditorium. The ceremony will also recognize winners in non-televised Image Awards categories March 11-14 and will stream via naacpimageawards.net.
