Nicolette Robinson embraces her husband Leslie Odom Jr. following her Broadway debut in the musical Waitress on Tuesday (September 4) at the Brooks Atkinson Theatre in New York City.

The 30-year-old actress is playing the role of Jenna in the hit musical, with music by Sara Bareilles. The buzz is huge for Nicolette and she got a standing ovation in the middle of the show for her performance of “She Used to Be Mine.”

Nicolette had so many friends and family at the show to support her on her first night. Cynthia Erivo, Patina Miller, Anthony Ramos, and married couple Mariska Hargitay and Peter Hermann all went backstage following the performance to give their congratulations.

If you didn’t know, Cynthia is the godmother to Nicolette and Leslie‘s daughter Lucille!

Patina Miller is a mom!

The 32-year-old Madam Secretary actress and Tony-winning Broadway star gave birth to a baby girl named Emerson Harper on Wednesday (August 9), her rep confirmed to People.

Patina‘s daughter was born at 12:50am at a hospital in New York City and she weighed in at 7 lbs, 6 oz. and measured 19 inches long.

This is the first child for Patina and her husband David Mars. The couple named their daughter after Ralph Waldo Emerson because they believe in his movement’s idea of “individuality and the inherent goodness of people and nature.”

Octavia Spencer is very aware of the lack of diversity in Hollywood and she’s not afraid to speak up about it!

“Since making Hidden Figures, I don’t have a problem saying to a room of male executives: ‘I need a female writer or a female director,’ or ‘I need a black voice or a Latin voice’,” the 46-year-old Oscar-winning actress recently told the New York Times. “I do not feel bad about it.”

“The big boys were big boys,” Octavia added about speaking up in meetings in the past. “They heard me and encouraged me to have a voice, always listened to my needs. We as women should always ask for what we need and might be surprised that there might not be as much resistance as we perhaps perceive.”

Octavia rocked a sophisticated ensemble to attend the 2016 UNICEF Snowflake Ball last night, Tuesday (November 29), alongside Maggie Q, Tea Leoni, Patina Miller, Brooke Burke and her hubby David Charvet, Meryl Davis, Kyle MacLachlan and his wife Desiree Gruber at Cipriani Wall Street in New York City.
