When a Hall of Fame is involved, you know something incredible is about to happen. Earlier this year, news broke that the legendary Rock and Roll Hall of Fame welcomed numerous inductees like Carly Simon, Dolly Parton, Eminem, Lionel Richie, Duran Duran, and Pat Benatar for their contributions to the music scene. And for the occasion, everyone came in their most daring (and leather-clad) looks for the red carpet event!
Along with the esteemed inductees, Judas Priest, Jimmy Jam, and Terry Lewis were awarded for their musical excellence. Also, Harry Belafonte and Elizabeth Cotten were awarded the Early Influence Award. So everyone was ready to celebrate those who were honored!
To be eligible to be inducted like Parton and Richie, artists are required to have released their first record 25 years prior to induction. And for the event, many stars who attended performed for inductees, like Olivia Rodrigo and Sara Bareilles performing for honoree Simon.
Now we weren’t exaggerating when we said the red carpet fashion was sensational. From matching leather looks to jewel-encrusted gowns, we were obsessed with the bold looks from Nov 5.
