Maren Morris, Karrueche Tran and Idina Menzel led a dazzling array of famous faces at the GLAAD Media Awards, held at the New York Hilton Midtown.

The annual ceremony, which focuses on LGBTQ representation in entertainment, is known for welcoming a variety of top-flight celebrities during galas in both Los Angeles and New York.

This Friday was the east coast edition of the awards show, held about a month and a half after the west coast version unfolded at the Beverly Hilton on March 30.

During this week's shindig Claws star Karrueche, who famously used to date Chris Brown, was swathed in a sleek see-through wrap dress that sprawled out into a mini-train.

Meanwhile Idina, a Broadway legend from the original casts of such shows as Rent and Wicked, showcased her enviably sculpted dancer's physique in a breathtakingly see-through scarlet ensemble.
