Angela Bassett Tells Oprah She Was “Gobsmacked” At Losing At The 2023 Oscars

Buy Me A Coffee

In a recent revelation that had the world collectively scratching their heads and going, “Wait, what?”, Angela Bassett took us on a rollercoaster of emotions as she spilled the beans on her Oscar loss in 2023.

Picture this: Angela, the unstoppable force of talent and sass, nominated for Best Supporting Actress for her royal turn as Queen Ramonda in *Black Panther: Wakanda Forever*. It was like watching Wakanda’s finest take on Hollywood’s most prestigious night – a clash of the titans, if you will.

But hold onto your popcorn, because the plot twist hit harder than a supervillain’s evil plan gone awry. The Oscar, that elusive golden statuette, slipped through Angela’s fingers faster than you can say, “Vibranium.” Jamie Lee Curtis swooped in like a cinematic ninja, snagging the award for *Everything Everywhere All At Once*.

In an exclusive interview with Oprah Winfrey on OWN Spotlight, Angela spilled the tea faster than Shuri invents cool gadgets. “I was gobsmacked! I was,” Angela confessed, probably making the entire Wakandan nation collectively gasp. Because, let’s face it, if Queen Mother Ramonda herself can be gobsmacked, what hope do the rest of us have?

But fear not, dear mortals, for Angela handled the situation like the regal queen she is. “I thought I handled it very well. That was my intention, to handle it very well,” she explained, as if gracefully accepting an Oscar snub is just another day in the life of a Hollywood icon.

With a wisdom that could rival the Ancient One, Angela emphasized the importance of facing disappointment with style. “There are going to be these moments of disappointment that youโ€™ll experience, but how do you handle yourself in the midst of them,” she pondered, probably making the audience nod in agreement while secretly wondering if they could ever handle disappointment as gracefully as Angela.
