The 51st NAACP Image Awards will air live tonight in a two hour special on BET at 8 PM. The celebration honoring the outstanding achievements of people of color in the arts will be hosted by five-time NAACP Image Award recipient, Anthony Anderson.
The ceremony will include performances by H.E.R and Jill Scott, and of course, consist of a star-studded red carpet.
