However, Jamie Lee Curtis won the Best Supporting Actress award. As Curtis won the award, she received a standing ovation, but Bassett stayed in her seat.

Angela Bassett is one of the hardest working actresses in the industry. On both Black Panther movies, Bassett’s portrayals were the unsung heroes of the films. As a result, Angela Bassett has amassed a new and larger fan base, here in recent years. They, alongside her original fans, want to see her win on the biggest night for actors and actresses. Last night, the Oscars took place, and the fans anticipated a huge Angela Bassett win. This was not the case.
