Angela Bassett reacts to Jamie Lee Curtis’ 2023 Oscars win: ‘Kinda shady’

Jamie Lee Curtis had the crowd loudly cheering when she won her first Oscar — everyone except Angela Bassett.

Bassett, 64, and Curtis, 64, were both nominated for the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress for their roles in “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever” and “Everything Everywhere All at Once,” respectively.

When it was announced that Curtis won, Bassett seemed less than thrilled — and, as seen in ABC’s telecast, seemingly didn’t even stand up to clap while seated in the front row.
