Sway is Fan Crushing HARD on Angela Bassett. She's beautiful. What can you do?
I wish Angela had been casted for X-Men as Storm... Every time she speaks it takes me back to 1992 when I was 5 watching the X-Men TV series, she sound and looks just like Storm did & Angela just got that POWER on screen that fits Storms character

If Sway stopped those long introductions maybe he'll be focused and remember that's Angela Bassett.

LOVE
Sway is all nervous lol
Angela & Lenda Murray have a similarity to me
My wife!!!!
Preach it Heather B! :-)
Short interview
This woman is still stunning as ever. My favorite female actress of all time. But I can't understand why we always feel the need to include others in our misfortunes. "My Latino and Asian Sistas". I don't know how many of them would consider themselves our sistas. I get it, and understand. They are underrepresented as well. But there's absolutely nothing wrong with just speaking about our own. When the conversation is about us.
+kc I somewhat agree with what you said but I don't think Sway was asking her about African American actresses specifically. I believe he said people of color in the industry which is why she brought up Asians and Latinos.
+kc I agree with you totally.
"You put them first, and they put you last. Coz you're a chump! A political chump... You're not only a chump but you're a traitor to your race!"
Marquies Perez-McClain I think sometimes my people play it too safe. We include others in our struggles because we don't want to offend anyone. Inclusion is wonderful and what's right. I rarely see other people of color joining us in our fights against racial injustice. Not saying it doesnt exist. But not nearly enough. Yet we're always the ones begging to join hands with everyone. Sometimes I believe we use the term people of color. And mention other people of color. So not to be seen as prejudice. When we're specifically speaking about ourselves. In particular situations.
I see why Sway was nervous, Angela Davis is on point.
+elzeus13 you mean Bassett, right? Lol
+Leslie Teshi Yep, you right' lol.
I just love her. *Bye, Ike.....*
What the hell is wrong whit Sway, u can't call that legend Angella davis !!!!
that's not fair would you thank the bet awards it's the award they picked you as a nomination when they didn't have to
Can I get my citzenship!?!??
the overall interview was good, but what was with Heather b? EVERYBODY DOESN'T BELIEVE IN GOD! that is your religious choice to praise who you choose. why the fuck would someone take time out of there day to praise your god? that shit is beyond annoying. i read it in the comments before but never noticed it but now i see
