Why Angela Bassett's Reaction To Jamie Lee Curtis' Oscar Went Viral | E! News

[MsS-J]

How would her winning an oscar be for Chadwick? So ridiculous. You win an Oscar based on your performance not because a cast mate died.

I like both women equally. They've had amazing careers and are still going strong. I'm also fine with Angela Bassett's reaction to not winning the Oscar. The public expects celebrities to be perfect, no matter what, and that's not okay.

[maetay]

People act like this woman can't be disappointed. She is human and genuinely looked hurt. People put so much stake on an initial and likely shocked reaction and don't even know the outcome of what happened after. Stop letting a few seconds of a moment dictate an entire story. And get TF off of Angela's back for having feelings

[mariahgunn]

It’s okay to feel disappointed, I was too honesty. She’s so talented

Understandable ! They are both excellent actresses it’s ok to feel disappointed ! Great roles are few and far between !

[NLori]

No one’s talking about Jaime’s expression at the Globes. It was an important award season to both of them.

[tmyers]

We as society need to stop idolizing celebrities. In my opinion I'm sick and tired of people idolizing actors, actresses and singers. I'm sure that Beyonce is human just like Angela Bassett and Jamie Lee Curtis. They can show who they are. I just think that we need to stop thinking that they are Gods. Let them live their lives.

Can’t believe I’m seeing people applauding her reaction, or lack of reaction. Imagine if Jamie Lee Curtis did the same thing and Bassett won.

[shawncarter]

Idk why Angela getting hate. She allowed to be disappointed. This woman has been robbed of a Oscar since 90s

[jeremywendelin]

Seemed like an honest reaction. You can feel disappointed.

[MrSherod]

Jamie Lee deserved and so did Angela. They had two great performances.

[DB-nvmu]

Give me a break! I am so Happy for Jamie Lee Curtis don't take this away from her! She is deserving!

[MsChi]

Her reaction was very honest, unlike the many other actresses before her who lose & do a fake smile, whilst clapping through gritted teeth. She was disappointed & there's nothing wrong with that. People are so accustomed to fakeness, they become outraged when someone is genuinely authentic in their emotions. Please leave this beautiful woman alone!

[CMV]

Being disappointed is ok. But it's how you handle that disappointment is what makes the difference. Be gracious and clap for the winner because it's the right thing to do.

[angeldomingos]

We can be gracious in defeat and disappointment, we choose how we react.

[SupriyaBaruQA]

Angela has the right to be hurt. But it doesn’t hurt to be happy for others 🤷‍♂️. Chad’s death has no bearings to her losing.

[jenniferjusten]

Angela was not robbed.
Give me a break.
She was recognized by.being nominated.
Stop the whining

[tiffanymorris]

Team Angela Bassett she's still a legend

[Reelunique]

TBH I don't think it's her time. She'll be back trust me. A talented woman like herself. TBH both women deserved it. Only one could win.

[veronicat]

Congratulations Jamie!!! Well Deserved ❤.
