Kathy Bates: How dare you open your foul mouth to me negress???

[fish_and-chips]

Uhhh, Cathy? Your line was “you’re not the boss of me, understand?”

[calverto]

Fun fact. Kathy Bates was so overwhelmed with emotion when Gabourey Sidibe first spoke to her that she improvised this line. 10/10 Great acting!

The “scuse me” is so nonchalant it kills me

[mrit]

Cathy, the line was simply "Don't you dare talk back to me in that kind of manner, young lady"

[ahsuniverseslays]

Her next line was "I have lots of black friends"

[bunny_god]

FUN FACT: the original line was supposed to be “don’t you dare speak to me like that” but kathy bates improvised that line and it was so good that the directors kept it in! the black actresses reaction of confusion was genuine! amazing work

"Negress" has to be the most elegant slur to ever exist.

[marcushoward]

Kathy Bates is one of the best actresses to ever grace the screen. That woman can play ANY role with absolute conviction; from the most serious and downright horrifying of roles to the most fun and lighthearted to the heartwarming and encouraging. There are exceptionally few in hollywood that I would like to meet, but she is at the top of the list.

Hotel housekeeping after they clean a room that was used for a sex party.

Queenie's "excuse me" in a nonchalant tone, Madison's slow head turn and that stare 💀, and Nan's not caring at all 😭😭😭 this scene is iconic AF

[YodaOnABender]

“Negress” is one of the funniest things I’ve ever heard
It’s like the most sophisticatedly racist thing you could possibly call someone

[ozaninc]

Lmao the way Emma Roberts looks back and stares ahahah

[LarryXLR]

My grandma when a black woman politely says "Excuse me"

[mihnma]

She and Sarah Paulson play them racist characters a little too well 😭😭😭 I love them so much

[colbyandbrennen]

I know this is meant to be serious but it's just so outlandish I can't help but laugh

[TheMask]

I have never in my life heard that term and her delivery is too funny to take it seriously

[marksinclair]

One of the great actresses. She so deserved her Oscar for Misery. Tremendous performance.

[paratil]

Uh kathy, the line was "don't speak to me like that"

[jazzyswtheart]

"how dare you open your foul mouth to me diggers" lmao the captions - 💀

[moonfiend]

The actress was fantastic in the Kathy Bates role! All the actresses in this scene were fantastic.
