I was with her until:

"because we are the only profession that celebrates what it means to live a life.”

Really? Such arrogant and misguided guff. So medical professionals, care workers, Atheletes, historians, artists and dozens of other professions don't?Actors sure have tickets on themselves.

By 'profession', she meant as an 'artist' tho, not just as an 'actor'. But i got your point.

Btw, congrats queen :giveup:

Viola Davis won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress for her performance as Rose Lee Maxson in 'Fences'!


This was Davis’ third Oscar nomination and first win; she had previously been nominated for her work in 2009’s Doubt and 2012’s The Help. The Oscar comes after her triumph at the Golden Globes, SAG Awards, and BAFTAs this award season.

“There’s one place that all the people with the greatest potential are gathered - one place - and that’s the graveyard. People ask me all the time, what kind of stories do you want to tell, Viola? And I say, exhume those bodies. Exhume those stories. The stories of the people who dreamed, big, and never saw those dreams to fruition. People who fell in love and lost. I became an artist and thank god I did, because we are the only profession that celebrates what it means to live a life.”

This makes her the first black woman to win the Triple Crown of Acting (Oscars for Fences, Emmy for How to Get Away With Murder, and Tonys for Fences and King Hedley II).

I thought Whoopi Goldberg was a black woman? She has her EGOT.

Whoopi won her Emmy for hosting. Viola is the first to win Oscar, Emmy, and Tony for acting.
