ESSENCE's 'Black Women in Music' Event Honoring Kelly Rowland and Sylvia Rhone

Grammy-nominated singer Kelly Rowland and music industry veteran Sylvia Rhone
were honored at ESSENCE's 3rd annual "Black Women in Music" event in
Hollywood last night.
It was a star-studded evening as the best and brightest in music came out to
celebrate Rowland and Rhone's accomplishments during Grammy Week.
Rhone was touched by a video montage about her career, including a special
message of congratulations from Missy Elliott. "Wow, wow, wow," she said,
upon taking the stage to accept her award. "That video blew my mind…. I'm so
proud of all the artists in that video." She paid tribute to the late Don
Cornelius, and ended her speech by offering inspiration to those who, like
her, are experiencing change. "I accept this award not only for the past but
for the future," said Rhone, who left her role as president of Universal
Motown in May 2011. "Transition is an invitation to use all of our talents in
life."
During a high-energy performance, Kelly Rowland -- wearing a
menswear-inspired ensemble of sparkly gold jacket, leather mini shorts, white
button-down and necktie -- sang bits of hits from her diverse career:
Destiny's Child songs like "Survivor" and "Independent Women," plus her
latter-day hits ("Motivation," "When Love Takes Over"). And the room really
went wild when rapper Eve joined her onstage for "Like This."
Songwriter and producer Rico Love surprised Rowland by presenting her with
the official plaque marking platinum sales of her single "Motivation."
"To all women out there, God bless you," Rowland said at the end of her set.
"I couldn't have done this without you."
Among the many celebrity guests cheering on the honorees at the Belasco
Theater: L.A. Reid, Regina King, NeNe Leakes, Holly Robinson Peete, Eva
Pigford, "X Factor" winner Melanie Amaro, Joyful Drake, Toccara, Michelle
Williams, Wayne Brady, Diddy Dirty Money's Dawn Richard, and Laurieann
Gibson. On the 1's and 2's: MC Lyte, who took a moment to honor Sylvia Rhone
as "the woman who took a chance on little 16-year-old MC Lyte from Brooklyn."
Here's your all-access pass to ESSENCE's 2012 "Black Women in Music."
