Sound Bite: Audra McDonald – Actress
Well, um, actually I just met Taraji last night for the first time, and she’s and I have a lot of people in common, and we met at an event last night and KiKi is so much fun I’ve always admired her work as I thought the person in there is so incredible and real and I’m so proud of her success and how Halle Berry, I’m also proud of her success and how she built not only on her looks but became the formidable actress that she has become and continues to be, that’s what’s important to me and Dianhann Carroll is just the reason for the season as far as I’m concerned, you know, because her connection to Broadway and her being the first Black actress to win a Tony award in a musical in 1962, she just broke down door, after door, after door, so I feel like she busted down those doors so people like me could sort of get through them a little easier, so, I bow to her, and I’m presenting an award to her today, I’m just going to try not to fall on my face, as I praise her. |
