All eyes were on Grammy-winning Gospel star Tasha Cobbs Leonard who stunned in a curve-caressing dress on the bustling carpet of the 40th Stellar Gospel Music Awards at the historic Schermerhorn Symphony Center in Nashville, Tennessee.

Styled by famed image architect J. Bolin, Cobbs commanded the carpet in a custom Anthony Lattimore look that’s sure to stir up commotion among the saints on Stellar Awards Sunday (Aug. 31 on BET).

With not one, but two looks, it was clear the night belonged to Leonard who also hit the stage for a soul-stirring performance.

Other standout stunners included Gospel girlies Jekalyn Car, Natalie Todd, Evvie McKinney, and Jordan Welch.
