After decades of stellar performances, Angela Bassett was honored Monday evening at theAmerican Black Film Festival in Beverly Hills for her extraordinary contributions to film, receiving the Excellence in the Arts award.
From her breakthrough role playing Tina Turner in “What’s Love Got To Do With It” to her powerful performance in “Waiting to Exhale,” and “Black in Panther,” Angela Bassett deserves all her flowers.
For the special evening, the Yale-educated actress looked refined and poised as she strutted down the red carpet in an elegant black gown adorned with gold 3D appliqués. Designed by Falguni Shane Peacock, Bassett’s matching blazer draped off her shoulders, bringing the perfect touch of modernity to her look.
