After a non-televised awards dinner on Friday handed out a majority of this year’s awards, the 50th NAACP Image Awards were held on Saturday and it was black-ish that emerged as the top winner of the night. The ABC family comedy swept the comedy acting categories and added wins for Outstanding Comedy Series (its fifth in a row) and Outstanding Performance by a Youth for Marsai Martin.
It was a good night for ABC on the whole, as Jesse Williams picked up Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series for his work on Grey’s Anatomy and Kerry Washington won Outstanding Guest Performance in a Comedy or Drama Series for her turn on How to Get Away with Murder.
Elsewhere, Power won Outstanding Drama Series and lead Omari Hardwick took home Outstanding Actor in a Drama Series; Taraji P. Henson won her third consecutive Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series Image Award for her role on Empire; and Lynn Whitfield snagged her fifth Image Award overall and first for playing Lady Mae on OWN soap Greenleaf.
