On Thursday night, the world’s most influential figures gathered at Jazz at Lincoln Center in New York City to celebrate the annual TIME100 list.
Hosted by 2024 honoree Taraji P. Henson, the event drew over 400 attendees, who ranged from Hollywood stars like Da’Vine Joy Randolph, fresh off her Oscars win for The Holdovers to the international change makers like the Palestinian photojournalist Motaz Azaiza, whose photographs of Gaza have helped to bring much-needed awareness of the crisis there.
At the cocktail hour ahead of the event, musician Jack Antonoff and his family socialized alongside comedian Alex Edelman, while singer Kylie Minogue mingled with Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos. Henson had a joyous reunion with her fellow The Color Purple co-stars Colman Domingo and Fantasia Barrino, who was also one of the night’s performers.
Alongside Barrino, the night also featured a performance by Grammy Award-winning singer Dua Lipa, who performed songs from her upcoming album, Radical Optimism.
The TIME100 Gala is TIME’s annual celebration of the TIME100 list of the world’s most influential people. The Gala brings together icons, leaders, change-makers, and celebrities from across industries and nations for one lively evening of meaningful dialogue and celebration. This year’s Gala features live performances from Dua Lipa and Fantasia Barrino, two honorees on the 2024 TIME100 list.
TIME is teaming up with ABC to bring viewers inside the exclusive TIME100 Gala with a special television event.

Kardashian, who also made a number of digs at Caitlyn Jenner, was called up from the crowd by presenter and comedian Kevin Hart to give a toast, and while she initially received some applause at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles, it was quickly drowned out by a chorus of boos, forcing Kardashian to pause as she began her speech.“
