Although it's a huge thing to receive such an honor as an actress, she said the award isn't just about her career. "You know, this role was so not about my acting career," she said. "This role has shaped my life and allowed me not to judge and to love unconditionally. If that goes into my career, great, but if it doesn't and I'm just the dynamic person that I strive to be every day, then I've won, baby!"
The 42-year-old earned a standing ovation when her name was read from the envelope last night, and her acceptance speech was very moving. She thanked her peers and actresses who paved the way for her, like Hattie McDaniel, the first African American actor to win an Academy Award, in 1939. She even wore a royal blue Tadashi gown because that was the same color Hattie won when she got her prize. She also wore a flower in her hair for the same reason. She said: "This is the flower Hattie McDaniel wore when she accepted her Oscars. So for you, Miss Hattie McDaniel, it's about time the world feels you all over them."
