If the critics have their choice, this red carpet wins.
After all, at the 2024 Critics Choice Awards Jan. 14, stars like Dua Lipa—sporting a strapless, red column dress with floral detailing, and Kaley Cuoco—wearing a strapless, black tea-length frock, wowed while walking the red carpet at Santa Monica's Barker Hangar.
Plus, returning host Chelsea Handler turned heads as she arrived wearing a canary yellow, square neck shift dress, paired with metallic strappy sandals. Meanwhile, Danielle Brooks walked the red carpet in a dusty rose, ruffled gown with a black bow in the front.
Hot off the heels of the 2024 Golden Globes, the Critics Choice Awards—which is often help predict the Oscars winners—honors the best in film and TV, like Barbie, Oppenheimer, The Crown and Succession. In fact, Barbie garnered the most nominations with a whopping 18, including Best Picture, but it'll have to beat out American Fiction, The Color Purple, The Holdovers, Killers of the Flower Moon, Maestro, Oppenheimer, Past Lives, Poor Things and Saltburn for the top trophy.
Of course, the films' stars like Margot Robbie, America Ferrera, Ryan Gosling, Cillian Murphy, Emma Stone, Leonardo DiCaprio and Lily Gladstone all earned well-deserved recognition for their acting performances.
On the TV side, The Crown, The Diplomat, The Last of Us, Loki, The Morning Show, Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, Succession and Winning Time are all up for Best Drama Series. Meanwhile, Abbott Elementary, Barry, The Bear, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, Poker Face, Reservation Dogs, Shrinking and What We Do In the Shadows will battle it out for Best Comedy Series.
One guarantee? Harrison Ford will take home the Career Achievement Award at the Critics Choice Awards.
