Colman Domingo never imagined he would be “a 100 of anything.”
“The fact that I’m one of the 100 most influential people in the world feels like I have a lot to live up to, and I want to because I don’t take that lightly,” Domingo told Variety on the red carpet at the Time100 Gala Thursday night. “The fact that someone in some committee believed that I’m impacting many people on this planet, I feel like now the work begins even more so. I know that I have to be even more mindful and thoughtful about how I create and the work that I do.”
Hosted by Taraji P. Henson at Frederick P. Rose Hall in New York City, the Time100 Gala celebrated this year’s most influential figures across film, sports, music and more, including Domingo, Da’Vine Joy Randolph, 21 Savage, Human Rights Campaign president Kelley Robinson, Fantasia Barrino and Henson herself.

First Lady Jill Biden’s keynote address at the Human Rights Campaign dinner in Los Angeles Saturday night was interrupted by protesters of the Israel-Hamas war.
Just as Biden took to the stage at the Fairmont Century Plaza hotel and began speaking, a handful of people stood up from their seats and started shouting, “Ceasefire Now.” One person also held up a sign that read, “Queer Jews Say Ceasefire Now.”
Security officials quickly ushered them out of the ballroom as they continued to yell. Other guests in the room also started to counter-chant, “Four more years,” in reference to President Joe Biden’s re-election campaign.
While Biden paused her speech during the incident, she didn’t directly address the protesters and just resumed once they left the room.

The Human Rights Campaign (Hrc) Gala in Los Angeles hit a snafu on Saturday when protestors of the Israel-Hamas war interrupted Jill Biden’s keynote address at the Fairmont Century Plaza hotel in Los Angeles.
Just as the first lady started speaking, about five people rose from their seats and began shouting, “Free Palestine.” One held a sign that said, “Queer Jews Say Ceasefire Now.” The evening serves as a major fundraiser for Hrc, one of the country’s leading LGBTQ advocacy organizations.
The protestors continued yelling as security ushered them out of the room.
Biden stopped speaking and resumed when the protestors were out of the ballroom.
It was announced earlier this week that Biden would be delivering the keynote remarks during the dinner and awards ceremony.
