McDonald’s knows how to throw a party.

At Essence Fest in New Orleans last weekend, #TeamBeautiful got the chance to hang out with city locals, festival volunteers and celebs like R&B Divas star Brave Williams and actors Dondre Whitfield and Salli Richardson Whitfield.

With DJ Kid Capri spinning all of the best hits, guests spent the day skating in an outdoor rink and snacking on McD’s world-famous fries.

The event took place on July 4 and didn’t disappoint. Check out all of the fun moments we were loving in the video above.

For 2024’s iteration of MadameNoire and HelloBeautiful’s annual series Women to Know, we knew we wanted to celebrate the people who help make the joys of film and television possible. To create art is to create magic. This year, we spotlight Hollywood Executive’s changing the face of cinema.
