Comedian Wanda Sykes will host the 29th GLAAD Media Awards in Los Angeles next month.
The “black-ish” actress was the 2010 recipient of GLAAD’s Stephen F. Kolzak Award for an LGBTQ media professional who has made a significant difference in promoting acceptance.
“Wanda Sykes’ humor, wit, and status as one of the most visible out women in Hollywood make her the perfect host for the 29th annual GLAAD Media Awards in Los Angeles,” said GLAAD President and CEO Sarah Kate Ellis in a statement on Wednesday. “At a time when LGBTQ acceptance and equality are eroding, it’s more important than ever that we celebrate the best in LGBTQ representation, and share a few laughs along the way.”
