Even her speech is a perfect dramatic monologue, she should win an Oscar for her speech. Angela has the "it" factor. She's amazing & so deserved this award.
What a speech . You are correct in saying that too deserves an Oscar . I was transfixed. Powerful, impactful, meaningful, unforgettable… that’s who she is and that’s what that speech was .
Wow.
Thank you for so eloquently wording this! She would be very pleased with this comment ❤
You are SO right!!❤❤
I swear I’m like is she fr or did she rehearse and remember her lines😂😂😂😂😂
I'm going to study this speech 😢❤🎉
Her speech itself deserves an award! She is a class act!
That what I saying ❤
Samuel L. Jackson's speech was only like 5 minutes while Bassett's nearly 15? She was babbling on and on unnecessarily.

*Angela is so PHENOMENAL!! She’s deserved this award many times over!!*
Facts
It’s participation award 🥇 not a real Oscar
Angela and Viola are the EPITOME of Class, Grace, and Strength! You are moved by each word they speak. Got Chills from her speech! 🙏🏽🎉 👑
Well said!. They are the definition of strength and beauty and resilience.
Well done ,well said, 😊.it could have been done better.And we the people are so proud of her.
Well done, well said, And could not have been done better . We the people are so.. proud of her 😮.
Accolades to the both of them!!!
🤣🤣🤣🤣 Good one! Wait. You're serious? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Angela is a national treasure who should’ve BEEN WON and won many but that smile and this speech shows me she fighting a bigger fight and I’ll stand with her on anything !
🎯🎯🎯
Same.💯💯🔥🔥
Only reason they gave it to her is because ppl said they were wrong for giving Jamie Lee curtis the oscar over her so 8n reality she didn't win and this is just a slap in the face frfr
@@budlight6665 Maybe Maybe not.
@@budlight6665 In reality she absolutely won. They give these honorary awards out for peoples achievements over time not just 1 film for 1 year. You can look at it from your but perspective but I never will. Whenever her name appears in a trailer it’ll say academy award winner just like for all other winners. If it was a pity award I’m sure she wouldn’t have even accepted it. So chill out and be happy for her because she’s happy and that’s all that matters !
I felt it when she said her gratitude to Queen Regina. She knew what her friend has been going through the past 2 years since the death of her son.
Yes, indeed she deserves another Oscar for that winning speech. HUGE CONGRATS to her.
Okay!! That part!
Her daughter tearing up is what got me🥹 Angela is more than deserving of this honor. She’ll always be number one in my book! A thirty year career and still killing it! The Best Is Yet To Come! 👑
Her poise, her class, her beauty..omg this women is incredible
What about the akward kiss 😂
How about her pouting and not clapping for Jamie lee Curtis last year that didn’t show any class whatsoever
@@denver.d7030what about it?
I’m sad she didn’t win in 2023 but in a way, it’s better that she received this award in 2024 bc at this ceremony she was given more time to make this eloquent speech, as opposed to the live show where they give you the music after 30 seconds. Truly a moving and powerful speech. 😊 👏
No one can give a speech like Ms. Angela Bassett!!!! Just full of poise, grace, and humility! 💙🤍❤️🤍
Angela is truly the full package, beauty, brains, compassion, talent and a class act. So deserving she got the recognition long overdue!
good said
I don't have words for how incredible she is. It was frankly embarrassing that she didn't have an Oscar until this point. I could not be happier for her! It is so satisfying to see a master of her craft finally receive her flowers. Congratulations Ms. Bassett.
Correct - this just shows the segregation is real still today in the USA.
It’s not a Oscar it’s a honorary award 🥇 mainly given to retired or actors who have passed away
This ain't even a real oscar...it's fake
They need to give her what she deserves and earned
We need to stop being excited about barely making in a racist society. Still trying to prove what to these people accepting being paid under which will happen to the next set of actors and actresses. This is some glorified slavery stuff!!! Still working hard for nothing and excited when somebody just makes it it's 2024 and we still stuck on being excited about who came next for some plastic and oh wow the racist want to accept you for being a good little puppet. This is not winning if times haven't changed we would still be in the fields picking cotton and house N*&*3* believe that don't get it twisted. Just slavery dressed up to look like something it's not BS open your eyes integration was the worse thing for us and it made is be stuck and backwards not having our own but being owned at all points. Manipulation all the way around man.
Always the B's about color don't matter bull crap get out of here and keep it real yo black @$* your skin and deeper matters to most and trying to have this grand speak about nothing keep it real and bring forth what's really going on.... Stand up and speak on that we were way better when we were together for us and by us instead not for us at all and for everybody else that don't care about us like Michael Jackson said and the ones I respect that spoke the truth.
There's no one like Angela Bassett. So happy that she have finally an Oscar. Congratulations Queen. 👑
Should've won Best Supporting Actress instead of Jamie Lee Curtis. 🤫
No Jamie Lee Curtis was better. And when i saw the reaction of Angela after Curtis won, i was very happy that Angela didn't win.
@@gutterbaby8382
Me too. But I'm not sure its the same as getting one for a movie role and at the ceremony its self. Sadly
@@gutterbaby8382 i think she was better at What’s Love. But that is my opinion lol.
@@gutterbaby8382 Angela is so entitled when she lost she was the most sore loser ever. She didn't even stand for Jamie Lee. Glad Angela lost. And really to win for a garbage Marvel movie, please.
This is way overdue. She earned it last year and The Academy knows it! I am so happy for the amazing Angela Bassett!
Mrs. Angela Bassett….your whole speech had tears forming and kept a smile on my face. I am so proud of you for receiving this award. Very much WELL DESERVED 👏🏾❤️
A honorary Oscar not real Oscar was to shut her mouth from her loss to Jamie lee Curtis last year. You don’t win a Oscar for a dud of a movie like Black Panther 🐆 it was horrible.
@@JoeJoe-jx9vvget a life 🤡
Yuck.. she's still acting.. same old thang
@@Mimi-cg2cw Jamie got her Oscar and is and has always been Hollywood Royalty 👸
You two..sound REALLY BITTER! ARE YOU NOT HAPPY? IF YOU'RE LIVING YOUR LIFE, AREN'T YOU HAPPY??? THEN WHY NOT BE HAPPY FOR OTHERS??? SOOOO IMMATURE!!!! 😂😂😂
I keep saying this, but one Oscar for one performance was NOT ENOUGH FOR HER! She needed an Oscar for HER ENTIRE CAREER! That’s why it took so Long! God knew she was special and one Oscar for one performance could not define her! CONGRATULATIONS! AMEN! ❤️👑
This is the BEST comment!!
Well said same as Samuel L Jackson longevity acting
Awesome way to look at it! ❤️🙏🏾
Facts
🎯🎯🎯🤍🙏🏾
She should do a Grammy spoken word album. She will automatically win
Lol
Agree. Surprised she hasn't done a book on audible
Heck yes!!
Maybe she could win a Grammy since she couldn't win an Oscar.
Yea
Well Deserved! “Delayed, but not DENIED!” Mrs. Angela Bassett is such an inspiration to me. I look forward to working with her. “The Best is Yet to Come!”
The most wonderful acceptance speech I’ve ever heard, Angela Bassett you are a very powerful inspiration for all people. Thank you for gracing the screen with your presence and being great💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐
That "Rest on your feet" part, she asked her family, was Powerful.❤ Beyond encouraged by Angela's winning this award and being the epitome of class.❤
You caught that too, that hit much differently and is a much more powerful way of words.
I pause the video at that part to soak that in. Because we been running, walking and stumbling our way through life to get to a place of rest and still be alive to enjoy it. That's what it meant for me.
Ajordan you said what I was trying to formulate to say. I've always been impressed by the way she carries herself. The thank you from her was the epitome of grace..... would love to say more but I think I covered how I feel about her. Wish she was my sister or cousin or friend.
Black (maybe just Southern) preachers everywhere have been using that my whole life. Makes me think Ms Bassett is “churched” 😂
@@ChristianJoyD 🤣❤️Yes, I grew up Southern Baptist, maybe that's why it resonated too. 🙏🏾❤️
She deserved one for “what’s love got to do with it” and “ waiting to exhale”, but I am still glad she was awarded one because my goodness she has deserved her flowers a long time ago.
When I read that she had turned down the part played by Halle Berry in the film, Monster's Ball, because she said she wanted to be able to watch herself with her grandchildren, my heart was glad! She is a woman of integrity!
She should’ve won an Oscar!! She deserves this honor.
Thirty years late but Angela Bassett finally received her Oscar. One of our greatest actresses and one of our most dignified human beings. I wish the Academy would show this on prime time television. Her Acceptance Speech is one of the best I have ever witnessed. Our entire country needs to hear this beautiful woman's voice. Congratulations for a much deserved Oscar. And, indeed, the BEST is yet to come!!
You call a fake piece of trash an Oscar?
Still a disrespect by the Academy.
Hear Hear. It should be shown and studied in schools across the globe and work places. This was deep way deep.
Facts
@@realjohnloveI know. That's why I began my comment "30 years late...". But let's celebrate her well deserved Oscar. Angela was overjoyed and we should be too.
This is one of the greatest speeches in history for me. Congratulations Ms. Bassett
Ms.
@@HarleyJ1980 since my typing error and my lazy proof reading was such an issue with this positive comment I left ,we’ll let me fix it for you. Is that much better?
Angela Bassett is deserving of more than an honorary Oscar! She's earned it for MANY movies shes starred in.
She is the literal embodiment of royalty. The way she carries herself like precious cargo is mesmerizing. From her graceful hand movements to “rest on your feet” she is who I inspire to become. Her and Sheryl lee Ralph are not only creating history, they are reforming what elegance and grace looks like.
Facts
Yup. I live in a constitutional monarchy and our royals also carry themselves with that same grace and humility in public. In her own way; Angela Bassett is definitely royalty. Poise, grace and strength. And she reaches and inspires so many people. That's royal.
This is Modern Black Dignity and Pride personified. So well deserved for Angela Bassett. Thank You for shining a light like only you can.
My heart skipped a beat when her daughter teared up. The acknowledgment of her family was beautiful. LOVE Angela Bassett!
Congratulations Angela Bassett!!! So deserving of this honor. Beautiful inside and out. Awesome acceptance speech. You go girl!!! Black girl magic at it's best!!
Facts
Congratulations to Angela Bassett.
This speech is phenomenal. She has so much grace, humility, and joy. Honoring those who came before her, those she has grown with, and those who will come after her…such a blessing.
Im glad she received this award because if she had won last year at the Oscars we would have not heard this profound speech (15 minutes). At the Oscars the winner is usually given 45 seconds when giving their acceptance speech 🎤
Good point
She’s black. Of course she got the time to give her speech.
Her team and the Black community made them give her a Oscar...just like they did Jennifer and Monique
@@Mimi-cg2cw 💯
And it’s sad because it is obvious
- However the case, whether that’s true or not, she deserves the honor and she is now part of Oscar history and no one can take that away from her. 👍🏼
I don't know why it takes so long for the ones who are so deserving of these awards to get their turn.
I'm just glad that Angela finally got hers! She really deserves more and more. Congratulations Angela, so proud of you! Lovely speech🥺❤️
If she was of another race she would of had the award long ago. That's just a fact.
@@pblack. Mel Brooks is 97 years old. At least she didn't have to wait that long for an honorary.
White people, guys that look like me and are a little older that been in control of everything for decades, well 425 years in this country. if people that look like me don't get outside of our bubbles and make friends with people that don't look like us, the status quo continues. On the other hand it does seem like the last few years Hollywood and other Industries are starting to correct what should have been done in the past.
@@jackie2060he has an actual Oscar this one is honorary, I wonder why people think it’s the same..just like degrees??
Now come on YOU KNOW WHY.
Angel Bassett is not only one the most incredible actresses in history, she is also one of the most inspirational people. I am so glad to see her get the honor she truly deserves!!
She needs an Oscar for her speech. I love her ❤
What a graceful and eloquent woman. One of the most impassioned and inspiring speech I've heard.
I still believe she’s going to receive another one. She’s too good.
and is
I cried the whole time. She is legendary and I’m so happy for her!
We heard you say Yale DEGREES!! She is a force! 🔥 She has deserved to win so often. Thankful she is recognized in this way and she so graciously accepted. ❤🔺
This Oscar is way way long overdue. Got robbed several times of nominations and wins. A true definition of a national treasure for sure. I’m so proud of her and her body of work. She’s a prime example of what an REAL acting should be. A big congratulations to Angela basset!! All hail the queen.
Wow
She needs an Oscar for this speech! Wow!
🤪
Agree ❤
Why, because she was only acting and didn't really mean what she was saying?
@@maxfrax333 no, because it was an amazing speech - she made me feel every word she spoke. BRILLIANCE!
She needed a real oscar,not the bs they gave her because they felt bad about wakanda,and gave it to Jamie Lee curtis for Halloween
FINALLY… WELL DESERVED!!! Made even better by her being allowed 15mins to give an impeccable speech 🥰👏🏽
Such an honor not to just see her art but to see she is art!! ❤ Angela Bassett you are a profound blessing and a gift beyond any screen.
I'm glad she has an Oscar. I wish she had won last year, but I know she still has more great roles in her left.
Oh yeah I love that she has this but I’m expecting an spike Lee moment for her. She needs an competitive one for Best Actress.
@shahartley they were never going to give it to her so they resorted to this to shut people up I bet after this there will be no more call outs and criticism for them not giving her an Oscar watch
Sadly they will never give her another one. They will say isn't this one enough already?
@@michaelmaps2004 mmhhmm
She lost for 2 reasons:
1- Oscars have a Death To Marvel mentality (which i sort of agree with - those movies are collectively garbage)
2- Too many Asians won acting awards that year, so all Angela could've filled the category all by herself & they still would've written in a white woman.
A True Queen. Her receiving this honor, instead of a win from last year's Oscars ceremony, at least allowed her the opportunity to say these profound and necessary words. The speech hits harder now because of the recent conversation around the pay disparity and lack of opportunities between Black actresses and their white female and male counterparts. And actresses of color make even less money and receive even less opportunities. Hopefully, the entertainment industry will use this moment to meaningfully and significantly progress in its practices. It's been nearly one hundred years that the industry has existed, please get it together.
I totally agree💯
She put those Yale degrees to work! Love ❤️her eloquence. Her natural dramatic talent is better than any script she’s ever read in any movie. Her speech here deserves an Oscar award and should be memorialized somewhere. Magnificent! Superb!
She is so well spoken, I can listen to her speak for hours. So well deserved. Thank you queen Angela ❤️
She DID THE THING❤
What a Speech. What a Career. What a Woman ❤ she deserves this, a true queen 👑
She sure did
Beautiful ❤️
She deserves an ACTUAL Oscar, not no damn "honorary" one, this was disrespectful.
@@stryfetc1471 For what? A pandering Marvel trash flick? 🤣
She should have gotten one for her role tina turner she played the hell out of that role
Her acceptance of this award speak to her power, love and respect to the industry and people of color and women of color to excel as an actor. Bravo to you and the women of courage and dignity of African Americans contribution to America.
People of color?
@@kennethjackson1771 No African American/Black People.
What color?
@@kennethjackson1771 did she stutter?? YES PEOPLE OF COLOR

This is an Academy award winning monologue, I tell you!!! This woman is fantastic! ❤👏👏👏
This woman is the epitome of grace and elegance. An award that was beyond Well-Deserved! To an actress who has been an inspiration to the entire black community, we love you Angela Bassett!! Congratulations beautiful Queen! 👑
one of the most incredible speeches in Oscars history
This isn't the Oscars
She speaks with such power and emotion. Giving a shout out to her fellow black actresses who have won an Oscar just shows how she admires them and they admire her too. Angela Bassett is not just Queen of Wakanda she is just a queen in general.
I admire this woman so much. She’s the epitome of endurance and perseverance. I love how she’s still at the top of her game after all these years. I hope this Oscar is only the first of many.
So elegant she took that moment to recognize those that came before her and to uplift and inspire. Nicely done 🙌 Ms. Angela. She deserved it.🏆
Angela is a QUEEN! She will always be an Oscar winner in my mind for her Tina Turner role. Absolutely BRILLIANT!
She’s not only a beautiful woman, she’s also one class act…❤
I just love Angela Bassett. She is a woman of many crowns. She's always a joy to watch. This woman can play any role. She deserves this Oscar and many more. Angela, you are such a queen! You made history, and you are history! Thank you for touching our hearts ❤❤❤
Stay strong and keep showing who you are.
Angela is an exceptional actress, a beacon of light, and a pillar of hope to many. Thank God for her! For such a time as this!
"THERE IS ROOM FOR US ALL"
Yes! What an icon
Power unleashed! She spoke to everyone woman in that room. Bravo! Ms. Bassett!
She sure was laying it on thick wasn't she.
Let her keep laying it on thick…it’s an acknowledgment that when a black actor gets the opportunity (which is not always the case), to teach and preach, you bet we better lay it on thick as no one else will give us a platform so when you get take well done Mrs Bassett ..take your flowers, share that wisdom and change a mind in every room ✊🏾👏🏾🙏🏿❤️💋😍
Preach Queen. Truer words were never spoken! So deserving of this high honor!
Compliments to Angela Basset she deserved this honorary Oscar for the amazing career!😉🤩
Can she now win an Emmy for this!!!
Right? Like they really gave it to Obama again even after all the outrage last year for her not being recognized enough by her peers. Ironically her husband has 2 of his own.
She should already have a few I wanna see her triple crown. Emmy, Oscar, Tony. She needs to work with Viola Davis I don’t understand why it hasn’t happened like the two of them.
She should be nominated for the Best Actress in 9-1-1
@@perryjones7771yesssss her and Viola will be great
Surely, she can! She just has to go pout at the Emmy ceremony and the following year she'll receive an honorary one.
The Queen has spoken!! Her talent, beauty, grace and humility are incomparable. Thank you Angela for your magic! Beyond well deserved!👑
Just an amazing, eloquent, and brilliant woman. She has deserved this for decades.
She is absolutely amazing! Beauty intelligence and integrity. We have been waiting so long for this to happen.
She richly deserves this recognition. Angela is a wonderful actress a really wonderful human being and tremendous talent. I congratulate her on finally winning an Oscar to honor her wonderful career. She can play any role.
Talk about dramatic reading or oratorical speech.. She nailed it.
I agree wholeheartedly
I just love how she always speaks and moves her body with such passion and conviction
@@bryanalstoncoxing She's quite the performer, ain't she. But did she really need to go on for nearly 15 minutes? No honoree as ever gone on that long.
@@Garsons-oq4lh well her speech was on a teleprompter meaning the Academy approved the length. So yes, she did need to “go on” and say what she wanted to say after such a long career.
@@bryanalstoncoxing a teleprompter. i thought that was an extemporaneous speech. oh my…
This spectacular speech, made me tearful , that she stood for every Black actor from past to present with excellence 🎉 congratulations
I am so moved! She just motivated a several categories of people. Women, Black women, Black people, and future black and brown artistes and entertainers thank you Ms Bassett we love you! 🥰 ❤❤❤❤
A vision and icon. This speech was full of grace, humility, and paying homage to those that have come before her, walking alone with her and for the future to come.
Congratulations to Angela Bassett! She always stood tall, in spite of countless obstacles. The women that she has portrayed on screen are a testament to her amazing talent and spirit. I'm pleased that she got to smell her flowers.
From How Stella Got Her Groove Back to 2024 - wow! She so deserves this award.
Congratulations, congratulations, congratulations! Even the acceptance speech gives me goosebumps and teary eyes. This is excellent class beyond one’s imagination. She is positively someone to aspire to be. Continued successes in your future career. Thank you for showing us graceful leadership in your craft. I am basking in your Pride.
Great speech, deserving of an award in itself! Well deserved and looooooooooooooooooooooooooong over due!
I hope this word has 30 Os!!!
I’m so proud of Angela Bassett for finally got her Oscar after being nominated twice😊
It's not a real oscar she can never be a egot with that go look it up
@@budlight6665 So you just angry and wanna comment negatively on all the positive post. And she actually CAN win a EGOT with it but who tf cares about that. Merly Streep has 3 academies and will never have each award awarded to her. EGOT = (Emmy, Grammy, Oscar & Tony awards.) Walt Disney has the most Oscars (26) and 4 of them are Honorary but they don’t say he has 22 real Oscars and 4 fake ones it just says he has 26! You need to do more research and stop coming off like a racist white girl/boy who can’t stand Black Success. Angels Basset is and will forever be a NATIONAL ICON SCRATCH THAT A WORLD WIDE ICON ! Lmao u madddddd
My goodness 😢😢😢
I cried tears of joy
This is one speech that will remain forever even after the lord calls her home. It was truly an iconic moment just seeing Regina and her presenting this iconic AWARD 🎉🎉🎉
This was long overdue. I'm finally glad she is getting the recognition and reward she deserves. She is by far one of my favorite actresses.
Her speech made this moment feel long overdue! Congratulations Queen!
Long overdue is an understatement. Throughly well deserved! One of the finest actors of her generation, she is finally getting her flowers!🏆👑
No one, I mean no one can slay a role like Queen Angela Bassett. Congratulations - well deserved and long overdue! That's right Courtney, capture that moment with your smartphone of your beautiful wife!
She deserved this award and it's long overdue. I'm so glad she finally received what she rightfully deserve for the amazing performances she has done in roles like Tina Turner, wife of Malcom X, and countless others. Hope this moment was televised.
Did anyone else's world completely stop ❓I have never become so still nor listened so intently❗Grace, spirit, intelligence, talent, and true beauty will do that ⭐ Congratulations to one of the finest humans I've been blessed to meet👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
She’s the reason why I went to school for acting and it’s so inspiring for her to say at the end “the best is yet to come” I have faith in her future best actress win, sooner than we think!
I love her so much. Pure class, and this is long overdue. She’s produced nothing BUT Oscar-worthy performances and she should have been honored years ago. She’s a treasure and the epitome of beauty, grace and POWER. Congratulations, Queen ♥️💐
"Rest on your feet" what an elegant way to tell your kids to stand up. Angela is an excellent actress and a Queen 👑

So proud of Angela! Thank you to the Oscars Bd of Gov for recognizing the much overlooked, but well deserved achievements of Angela Bassett!! Bravo!!🤗🥳
Perhaps the most touching speech I have ever heard. You are great Angela.
Angela Bassett is an influential figure and artist that deserves her flowers. She brings class, integrity, gravitas and pathos to every role she has played. There are many, many roles she could have played to perfection that she turned down because she is a lady and a thespian first; she refuses to do anything easy or to be a blemish in her industry because she knows what it means to be the only, to be the first, to be the barrier-breaker and knows that she would be looked differently as a black woman because of her choices. She took home this honorary achievement because the industry acknowledges she should have had one, two or even three competitive awards and they honored her because she remained gracious through it all, even when it was tough (and being an artist, especially today, is very tough!!). Thank you Mrs. Bassett, you did the thing. Now, get a competitive Oscar! It’s time to go EGOT!!
She should get an Oscar for that speech :) Angela just ooozes out Class and Strength in every role she plays. Sorry it took so long for her flowers to arrive. But timing is everything, and she deserves it.
This was a such a powerful testament that Angela Bassett should have gotten many awards. This was such a powerful speech. Remarkable and very touching! I loved how she told her family to stand and recognize them.
Angela Bassett is the epitome of grace,class,and elegance. Congratulations on this well deserved and over due award. It's sad it took the academy this long to recognize what we all knew all along..You are that girl!!! We salute you queen 👸🏾 👏🏽 🙌🏽
Preach Mrs. Bassett!!! Congratulations to our beloved Angela on a monumental honor for her monumental career. We love you deep. You’ve been deserving. So elated you’re here to take in your flowers.
Truly the best speech I have heard in my life. I am truly stunned. Thank you Ms Bassett for your glow 😇
This was such an inspiring, and eloquently spoken speech. She looks absolutely beautiful, stunning, gorgeous, etc. 🔥🔥!! Congratulations to the incomparable, one and only Angela Basset. You are highly deserving of this award 🎉❤!
