Kelly Rowland donned a bold black gown at FOX Golden Globes After-Party last night, yet still sparkled brightly.

The child of Destiny, whose new show Chasing Destiny premieres on BET in April, wowed as she arrived at the star-studded gala. She notably starred in FOX’s flagship drama ‘Empire’ last year for six episodes as the mother of Terrence Howard’s character Luscious Lyon.

Ms. Kelly’s face is one that will be in the spotlight amply over the next few months, because beyond her the talent-search venture, she’s also gearing up for the release of fresh music.

Exciting times.

More marvellousness after the jump…

Lady Gaga continues to do-away with the wacky ensembles and is instead embracing the more demure.

Mother Monster arrived at the Golden Globes 2016 moments ago with actor fiance Taylor Kinney and the pair served all sorts of vintage Hollywood.

The singer is up for Best Performance by an Actress in a Miniseries or Motion Picture Made for Television (a mouthful we know) for her role in ‘American Horror Story: Hotel.’

Time (a very short amount at that) will tell if she scoops the honor.

For now, though, check out more pics of the ‘Applause’ belter below…
