While this year’s award season will surely celebrate the talent of many Asian American stars, like Charles Melton’s phenomenal work in May December or Greta Lee’s subtle yet powerful portrayal in Past Lives, last night’s 2023 Unforgettable Gala put that in full swing. The star-studded night, which was celebrating its 21st annual event, “celebrates and commemorates API celebrities, influencers and leaders who have significantly contributed to entertainment, arts and culture.”
Among the award winners of the night, in addition to Lee and Melton for Breakout in Film and Actor in Film, respectively, many other honorees took home special awards. Beef star Steven Yeun took home the award for Actor in TV while actor Young Mazino took home the Breakout in TV Award. Also honored was the Netflix series Never Have I Ever, which won the Vanguard Award.
