Big congrats to Octavia Spencer, Academy Award winner for Best Supporting Actress in “The Help.”
Octavia gets a little love from her co-stars and friends, the beautiful Viola Davis and Jessica Chastain. “We just left our egos at the door and worked together as one beautiful unit. … It was an award-winning cast,” Octavia said.

Every time I look at the [photo of myself as a] little girl, I always thought, “Oh, that’s a cute outfit.” But she was always hungry, she was always shy, she was always kind of in the background, but inside she had big dreams bursting. And the only thing I could think about is that saying, ‘What the caterpillar calls the end of the world, the master calls the butterfly.’

i am on my knees
“In my mind, I see a line and over that line I see green fields and lovely flowers, and beautiful white woman with their arms stretched out to me. But I can’t seem to get there no how. I can’t seem to get over that line.” That was Harriet Tubman in the 1800′s.

We get probably a tenth of what a Caucasian woman gets. And I’m number one on the call sheet, and then I have to go in and I have to hustle for my worth.
I got the Oscar, I got the Emmy, I got the two Tonys, I’ve done Broadway, I’ve done off-Broadway, I’ve done TV, I’ve done film, I’ve done all of it. I have a career that’s probably comparable to Meryl Streep, Julianne Moore, Sigourney Weaver - They all came out of Yale, they came out of Julliard, they came out of NYU. They had the same path as me.
And yet, I am nowhere near them. Not as far as money, not as far as job opportunities, nowhere near close to it. I have to constantly get on that phone, and people say, “You’re a black Meryl Streep. You are, and we love you. We love you. There is no one like you.”
Okay, then if there’s no one like me - you think I’m that - you pay me when I’m worth. You give me what I’m worth.

“‘There’s not prerequisite for worthiness. You are born being worthy.’ And I think that’s a message that a lot of women need to hear. The women who are still in silence because of trauma, because of shame due to the assault. They need to understand that it’s not their fault and they are not dirty. That’s my message tonight.” – Viola Davis (Golden Globes 2018)
