Vindication this year for Jamie Lee Curtis who won her first Oscar – Who was not happy

Justification for her Jamie Lee Curtis this year’s Oscars, as she won at the age of 64 and after a long career in Hollywood her first golden statuette, stirring up the audience.

But one presence sitting in the comfy seats of the Kodak Theater didn’t seem to share the joy: We’re talking about Angela Bassett, also 64, who was also nominated for the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress in the movie Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.

So when it was announced that Curtis had won, Bassett was at least restrained and didn’t even stand up to applaud while sitting in the front row.

Twitter users commented negatively on her reaction, while others were simply disappointed that Bassett didn’t win.

Twitter had a lot of feelings about Curtis winning over Bassett — and they weren’t positive. https://t.co/gTam2VwFPS
