The mom-of-two was picture-perfect in a red Christin Siriano dress that featured a long train. On her feet were a pair of silver Jimmy Choo sandals.
"Last night truly filled me up. Thank you so, so much @criticschoice for the Career Achievement Award. It is such an honor that I will never take lightly," she gushed. "And thank you to my friend, @tarajiphenson for presenting me with the award 💕 So grateful."
After posing for the cameras solo, the Extant lead was joined on the carpet by her boyfriend of one year, musician Van Hunt.
In her acceptance speech that night, she called her beau the "love of my life."
"I know it’s true and this is how I know it’s true," she stated. "Because you fail so many times, you know what wrong looks like. And because I failed so many times, I now know what [love] really looks like."
American Idol alum Jennifer Hudson donned a multicolored long-sleeved dress and a pair of black thigh-high boots. She said it felt "so good" to spend the night with her pals like Taraji P. Henson and Berry.
The Oscar winner flashed a smile in a colorful frock that had a peplum tail.
Westworld's Tessa Thompson wore a shoulder-baring black ensemble by Del Core. The piece featured over the top sleeves that flared out to the sides, making it look more like a sculpture than a piece of clothing.
Orange Is the New Black star Danielle Brooks also went for a midi-length black dress, though her design was a much simpler one-shoulder silhouette.
