Obviously the sun came out too to celebrate the 39th Annual Image Awards. But don't be fooled by what you see! The sun was accompanied by "the hawk", turning a lovely red carpet day into a chilly and windy Chicago style afternoon.
Yet, despite the sudden drop in temperature the presence of one individual seem to warm up the carpet for quite a while--Tyler Perry. With two films on the horizon and Image Award nominations for his work in television and film, he had a lot to talk about with press. I didn't get the chance to interview him, but I did talk to the next best thing--one of his HPIC (Head Producers In Charge) and some of the stars of both films, Meet the Browns and A Family That Prays.
Other hot topics of discussion on the carpet: The Great Debators and its cast's individual nominations; this month's television debut of A Raisin In The Sun which Audra Macdonald shares great insight about; independent film Dirty Laundry and Rockmond Dunbar's role in it; Ruby Dee; and Rick Fox shedding his "pretty boy" image and continuing his full court press into acting.
