The Emmy winner celebrates a second consecutive nomination for best supporting actress after last year’s win and speaks about using her platform for good amid the SAG-AFTRA strike.
I feel like I’ve been hit with a bag of emotions, and most of them are so wonderful. You know how in the cartoons they get hit with a balloon, and all the hearts and flowers pour out? I feel like that animated character. I’m so happy, but I’m shocked at the same time. For me, this does not get old. This will never get old.When I got this role, she was such a subtle character that I didn’t know if anybody would see my work.
The trait of Barbara misidentifying Black and white celebrities went viral online. Did you have fun with that? That’s just a beautiful setup there. I love it and I’m happy for her. When I tell you the character Mrs. Howard sees herself in Janine? Barbara saw her own mother come to the college campus. Now, this is me creating backstory: [Her mother] came to the college campus to tell Barbara what she couldn’t do. When [Barbara tells Janine], “She will sacrifice herself for you,” I know that because I would’ve sacrificed myself for my family. It fills my heart.
Listen, I have to tell you, when I sang onstage, I sang because I had to center myself, because I was so lost in emotion and I didn’t want to stand onstage and be a blubbering idiot like I am this morning. And so I went to the thing that I knew, that I knew that was mine, and that was my song. That song was written by a friend of mine, Dianne Reeves. I had been singing it for so long — at least 10 years. I got on that stage, and it said everything about who I am.
