In a celebration of diversity, equity, and inclusion, the UnderOne Diversity and Inclusion Awards are gearing up for a night that promises both inspiration and entertainment. The amazing hosts who will lead the prestigious event, are none other than the talented Mischa B and the comedic force, William Thompson.
Mischa B: A Musical Powerhouse and DEI Advocate
Renowned British singer Mischa B, born Misha Amber Bryan, has carved a name for herself with her extraordinary vocal abilities and unyielding commitment to promoting diversity and inclusion. Rising to fame as a finalist on The X Factor in 2011, Mischa B’s journey has been marked by chart-topping success and accolades. From her debut single “Home Run” to “Do You Think of Me,” she has consistently demonstrated her prowess not just in music but also as a vocal advocate for inclusivity.
Beyond the stage, Mischa B has demonstrated her dedication to fostering positive change in society advocating for race and gender equality and being a positive role model through visual and performance art. Her presence at the helm of the UnderOne Diversity and Inclusion Awards brings an undeniable authenticity to the celebration of DEI champions.
William Thompson: Comedy with a Commitment
William Thompson, a 26-year-old comedian hailing from Belfast, Northern Ireland, is set to infuse the evening with humor and charm. Despite perhaps being less recognizable on the global stage, Thompson’s achievements, including appearances on BBC One, BBC Three, Dave, and his creation “William of Orangedale” on Channel 4, position him as a rising star in the comedy scene.
A finalist in the 2021 BBC New Comedy Awards, Thompson brings a fresh perspective and comedic flair to the co-hosting role. As part of the duo leading the UnderOne gala, his unique blend of humour promises to add a touch of levity to the celebration of diversity and inclusion.
