Los Angeles, CA – July 3, 2024 – Media Girls LA’s 2nd Annual Media Honors Brunch, held on Wednesday, June 26, 2024, was the perfect start to BET Awards week, bringing together the brightest stars and trailblazers in media for a day of celebration, networking, and inspiration. Sponsored by Millennials Naturals and Janet Collection, this highly anticipated event was an unforgettable experience set against the stunning backdrop of a mansion in the Hollywood Hills.
An event that inspired and heartfelt as the last. Reflecting on last year’s inaugural celebration, we remember the profound sense of community and recognition as we honored trailblazers like Karen Civil, Sidnee Douyon, Derrian “Phreshy” Perry, Luke Lawal, and Miracle Watts. Their stories of perseverance and success set the stage for what has now become a cherished tradition.
This year, as we kicked off BET Week, we gather once again to celebrate a new group of extraordinary individuals who have made significant impacts in their fields. Tasha McCaskiel, the visionary CEO of Black Girls In Media, continues to pave the way for diversity and inclusion. Nina Parker, with her vibrant presence as a talk show personality, has touched countless lives. Kyle Simpson, the dynamic CEO of The Neighborhood Talk, keeps us informed and connected. Arnell Armon, a beloved beauty content creator, inspires confidence and creativity in her audience. Gia Peppers, a captivating TV host, brings stories to life with grace and charisma. And Kwaylon “BlameitonKway” Rogers, an actor and Instagram sensation, brings joy and laughter to millions.
Each honoree embodies the spirit of innovation, resilience, and excellence. Their journeys are not just personal triumphs but shared victories that uplift our community.
Guests enjoyed specialty drinks from Mezcal Rosaluna and The Roche Collection, captured memorable moments at the Pixi Photobooth, and mingled with industry peers. The atmosphere at the brunch was a genuine surprise and heartfelt emotion, as each honoree realizes their close friends are not only present to support them but also to deliver personal, touching speeches.
