The Insecure writer, director & creator is the first female to host the award show in almost ten years. Last year, it was hosted by Seth Meyers.
CFDA president and CEO Steven Kolb said in a statement, “Issa Rae is leading a new generation of performers who use their voice and humor to discuss social topics in a way that is relatable and poignant.”
Count us in. You already know we’re rooting for everybody black! Go Issa!
