Las Culturistas Culture Awards 2025: Complete list of winners and nominees

The Las Culturistas Culture Awards 2025 aired on television for the first time on Tuesday night. It brought a mix of chaos, satire, and more to the small screen.

The fourth annual Las Culturistas Culture Awards were hosted by comedians Matt Rogers and Bowen Yang. It was broadcast on Bravo from 9 -11 p.m. ET, and began streaming on Peacock the following day. With over 100 categories, celebrity presenters, live musical performances, and inside jokes, the 2025 Las Culturistas night was a celebration of culture.

The Las Culturistas podcast began in 2016 as a project for Yang (now a Saturday Night Live cast member) and Rogers (known for I Love That for You). The podcast built a cult following. By 2022, the duo had turned their brand into a live awards show, Las Culturistas Culture Awards. It poked fun at the mainstream events like the Oscars and Emmys.

The first three editions of the Las Culturistas Culture Awards were held in theaters in New York City. This year, Lionsgate, Bravo, and Peacock partnered with the duo to televise the event. It was filmed at the Orpheum Theatre in Los Angeles in July.

The 2025 Las Culturistas Culture Awards show opened with Yang and Rogers, alongside Bravo executive Andy Cohen, as they descended onto the stage in Blue Origin space suits. Cohen warned,

"Don't do anything I would not do."

Yang called the Las Culturistas Culture Awards "the biggest night in culture, depending on who you ask." Rogers, choking back mock tears, declared:

"We are proud to eliminate the 'intellectual' part of culture entirely."

Lady Gaga's fictional song "Abracadabra" won Record of the Year at the 2025 Las Culturistas Culture Awards. Rogers and Yang accepted the award on her behalf. Lisa Rinna took home Outfit of the Year for wearing "whatever the f**k she wants."

She modeled all the categories' nominees during the show before winning the Cultch (the award's nickname). Fellow nominees included Demi Moore's yellow coat in The Substance and "a pretty girl getting coffee in just sweatpants and a tank top."

Kenan Thompson received the Titan of Culture award at the 2025 Las Culturistas Culture Awards. A complete list of the winners and nominees from the 2025 Las Culturistas Culture Awards follows.
