Los Angeles – Yesterday in LA, Janelle Monae and Belvedere Vodka hosted an intimate brunch kicking off Oscars weekend at Catch LA.

During such a topical moment for women today, Janelle and a panel of luminaries including Alicia Quarles, Danai Gurira, Stacy Smith and Lacey Duke lead an engaging discussion about creating a more beautiful future for everyone. Celebrity guests including Rosario Dawson, Grimes, Lupita Nyong’a, Matt McGorry, Serayah McNeill, Geena Davis, Ava Duvernay, Emily Arlook and more participated in spirited and uplifting conversations about their hopes for the future while listening to beats by Kitty Cash and sipping on signature Belvedere Vodka cocktails.
