Halle Berry has honor to add to her trophy case.

The Oscar, Emmy, NAACP, Golden Globe, Screen Actors Guild and Golden Raspberry Award winner will receive the People’s Icon award at the 2021 People’s Choice Awards.

Cardi B, who co-executive produced the soundtrack of Berry’s new film, “Bruised,” will present the award during the Dec. 7 ceremony, which will air simultaneously on NBC and E!

The former beauty pageant queen is making her directorial debut with the Netflix drama, which is now in select theaters and arrives on the streaming platform Nov. 24.

“Halle Berry has broken down barriers, directed and starred in diverse roles that have paved the way for others in the industry,” NBCUniversal Entertainment Television executive vice president Jen Neal said in Friday’s announcement. “In addition to her filmography accolades and trendsetting ethos, Berry is known for her philanthropic work with women, children and underserved communities. She is an icon of our time and for all these reasons and more, we are honored to present her with ‘The People’s Icon’ award.”

The former Revlon spokeswoman famously made Hollywood history when she became the very first Black woman to win the Academy Award for best actress for 2001′s “Monster’s Ball.”

The 55-year-old Cleveland native made her feature film debut in Spike Lee’s 1991 interracial drama “Jungle Fever.” Since then, her extensive body of work includes projects including “The Flintstones,” “X-Men,” “Catwoman,” “Solomon & Sheba” and “Extant.”

Berry’s philanthropic efforts include work with the Jenesse Center in Los Angeles, supporting domestic violence victims, and Novo Nordisk and the Entertainment Industry Foundation’s Diabetes Aware Campaign.
