Another thing we love to see is a woman in love. We almost thought Gina Torres was dating a country singer for a minute but that’s Kevin Wright.

Y’all may recall the couple made a big splash when Gina was photographed kissing the father of six from Utah back in 2017 before she and then estranged hubby Laurence Fishburne had announced their divorce. Torres was at the awards to introduce a special dueling piano collaboration from John Legend and Charlie Puth – as they each performed snippets of the other artists’ hits– Legend sang verses of Puth’s “See You Again,” “We Don’t Talk Anymore” and

“Attention,” while Puth performed Legend’s “Ordinary People” and “Tonight (Best You Ever Had)” before they serenaded the audience with “All Of Me.”

The duo, who co-wrote songs together, also surprised fans with a performance of “Dope” and “Light Switch.”
