A Night to Remember
The Las Culturistas Culture Awards premiered on Bravo, inviting fans to celebrate a unique blend of humor and pop culture. With an atmosphere buzzing with excitement, the event delivered memorable moments that reaffirmed why culture matters.
Kickoff Performance
The show opened with an unforgettable rendition of Lady Gaga’s “Abracadabra,” brought to life by podcast hosts Matt Rogers and Bowen Yang. This lively performance set the tone for a night filled with absurdity and joy.
Hosts’ Introduction
Following their show-stopping performance, Matt and Bowen dived into the awards, describing them as a mix of randomness where concepts like time and serious politics barely made an appearance. In a comedic twist, rather than an “In Memoriam” segment, the hosts introduced an “In Absentia” segment, where they explained the absence of certain celebrities. Michelle Obama was noted as “too good for this,” while Chappell Roan faced a humorous “guinea pig emergency.”
Celebrating the Winners
Without missing a beat, the evening proceeded with the announcement of several quirky awards, including:
- Woman of a Certain Age Award
- Flirtiest Thing You Could Ever Say
- Best Gay Guy – Normal
- Best Gay Guy – Famous
- Best Word to Whisper
- Eva Longoria Award for Tiny Woman, Huge Impact
Among the winners were Jeff Goldblum’s chest from Jurassic Park, celebrated for Most Amazing Impact in Film, and Andy Samberg, taking home the Creatine Award for Straight Man Excellence. The award for Most Thrilling Threat went to “If I Ever See You Again, I’m Gonna Kill You.”
Fan Reactions
Not everyone grasped the essence of the awards. Kristen Wiig, who also received an accolade, humorously admitted, “If you don’t know what the #CultureAwards2025 are, that’s OK!”
Andy Samberg’s Acceptance Speech
During his acceptance speech for the Creatine Award, Andy Samberg commented, “I want to thank my fellow cis men, my cis-ters as I call them. I know that’s something else, but we want it, which means historically we will get it.” His lighthearted approach delighted the audience.
Poll for the Audience
As the event came to a close, viewers were encouraged to share their thoughts: “Should Bravo make the Las Culturistas Culture Awards an annual tradition?” Fans took to social media to cast their votes and express their opinions on this new celebration of culture.
