The *Wall Street Journal's* 13th annual Innovator Awards have been held at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City and this year's honourees included some powerhouse women!

Kylie Jenner, who has her own Kylie Cosmetics brand and is now venturing into the fashion world with her new clothing line, Khy, received the Brand Innovator Award. Acting legend, *Wiser Than Me* podcast host and breast cancer survivor Julia Louis-Dreyfus was recognised for her ongoing contributions to the entertainment industry and GRAMMY-winning artist SZA was named Music Innovator of the Year, celebrating her genre-blending sounds.

"I think they might've gotten it wrong, to tell you the truth," Julia joked with media on the red carpet. "I've never thought of myself as an innovator but if they want to call me that, I'll take it!"

Accepting her award on stage, Julia delivered a speech with the help of AI, which, as you can imagine, lead to lots of hilarity. At one point it seems ChatGPT perhaps confused her with fellow Hollywood star Julia Roberts!

"Reflecting on this milestone, I am reminded of the unwavering support of my family and the unyielding dedication of my team that has been the driving force behind my investment strategies and my performances in *Erin Brokovich, Forgive Me* and *Mystic Pizza."*

She ended her speech, "in the end, folks, it's the humans who do the innovating and the entertaining and to recognise my small contribution to innovation and entertainment is very flattering."

Kylie, who was presented her award by designer Haider Ackermann, also took to the stage for a brief acceptance speech: "I've always loved beauty and fashion and to be recognised for the success of my brands I built and my new Khy that launched today, it's so special to me."

Kylie's partner, actor **Timothée Chalamet** was also there. He presented the Innovation in Film award to legendary director **Martin Scorsese.** Other honourees included Walter Hood in the Design category, Ed Ruscha for Art and Jerry Lorenzo for fashion.
