The two also posed for pictures with the famed poet. Unlike Jolie and Zahara's neutral palette, Gorman decided to wear a bright pink floor-length dress with spaghetti straps and belt detail.

Variety shared many of the stunning red carpet looks on their Instagram. A few powerful women who attended included Katy Perry, singer Lorde, Hunter Schafer, and Honoree Rita Moreno.

Once inside the event, Jolie embraced her role as a presenter with an emotional speech and touching tribute to Gorman as she presented the 23-year-old with her Variety's Power Of Women honor.

Jolie mentioned Gorman's moving poem she said at President Joe Biden's inauguration earlier this year in January and explained that her voice was not only the youngest but the strongest voice America could have asked for at that moment.

The actress then referenced Gorman's childhood and explained that the impressive poet is seen as the "fully formed" woman she is now; however, there is a Gorman that people did not see.

Jolie praised her for overcoming her insecurities and creating profound and moving poetry that can ignite change. She ended her speech by stating that the world needed more voices like Gorman to light the way through the darkness.
