Tyler Perry Gets Emotional Over ‘Rare’ Move By Kerry Washington

Kelly Washington On Saturday, I remembered the night when she won the NAACP Image Award for Best Actress in the Movie. Tyler Perry.

Washington won the award after his outstanding performance in the Netflix war drama film The Six Triple Eight.

The film is based on the true real story of all black women’s battalions who were honored during World War II.

Washington was nominated for Best Actress in the Film category and competed against a strong list of nominees.

Other candidates include Cynthia Eribo from “Wicked,” Rashana Lynch from “Bob Marley: One Love,” Lupita Nyongo from “Quiet Place: First Day” and Regina King from “Shirley.” It was there.

After she was announced as the winner, Washington was overwhelmed by emotions and said he was “shocked” to win for the “extraordinary” woman she was opposed to.

The excited winner held Erivo warmly and she walked towards the stage to win the award.

In her acceptance speech, Washington said: Daily Mail“Okay, guys, you know, when people seemed surprised at the awards show, I didn’t believe they were really surprised – except for Beyoncé at the Grammys. ..it is…”

“But I’m shocked. The women I’m nominated for are so extraordinary, so I’m shocked,” Washington said.

The uplifted actress thanked her fans, her family and the people she worked with in the film, and gave her special thanks to the film’s director Tyler Perry, Netflix, and her castmates. Ta.

She continued, “Most importantly, I would like to thank 6888 women and 855 women from 6888.

Washington also said, “When our history is torn from us, when people are trying to stop telling our stories, we’re telling your story, women. Tonight what.”

She said, “Remember your greatness, as it is about us all being called to our greatness.

Washington left the stage after giving speeches and applause. However, she returned a few minutes later and paused as presenter.

The “Django Unchained” actress returned to do so, thinking she wouldn’t thank Perry during her speech.

She said, “I didn’t thank Tyler Perry.” However, the audience reminded her that she had already done, and then she happily left the stage.

A gesture from Washington touched Perry, and Perry posted a message expressing his feelings about it.

The 55-year-old said, “For those who do good and those who are ignored, thanked, or questioned, just keep doing good! Because that’s right! God tells you. I concluded.
