Academy Awards

Here's why that's racist.

"The Holdovers" star is the 10th Black woman to win Best Supporting Actress.

This year, and every year, we’re rooting for everyone Black, including Jeffrey Wright, who's nominated for Best Actor in “American Fiction” for the 2024 Academy Awards.

Angela Bassett won an honorary Oscar at the 14th Governors Awards in recognition of her outstanding contributions to the film industry.

Angela Bassett doesn’t need an Oscar, but she definitely deserves one. If our auntie can’t win an Oscar in Wakanda will she ever get what she is owed from the Academy?

Jamie Lee Curtis won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress over Angela Bassett, and Black Twitter is defending the actress's viral reaction.

Rihanna will perform her ballad "Life Me Up" from the "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever" soundtrack, at the 2023 Academy Awards ceremony

Till, the highly-praised film documenting the life and tragic lynching of Chicago teenager Emmett Till in Mississippi in 1955, as well as his mother Mamie Till-Mobley's fight for justice, received ZERO nominations. Now, Till's family is expressing their sadness over the Oscars overlooking this pivotal story in American history. 

Black Girl Hollywood Magic is in full effect after icons Angela Bassett and Rihanna both got nominated for Academy Awards this year.

Academy Awards members are split on nominating Will Smith for his new film, "Emancipation,' because of lingering animosity over slapping Chris Rock.

Will has probably about had it with all the jokes and negativity surrounding his family and his marriage. Rock's not-so-wise crack may have just been the proverbial straw that broke the camel's back. 

Will Smith appeared to slap Chris Rock in the face on live TV at the 2022 Academy Awards ceremony after the host mocked the acting career of Jada Pinkett Smith. TV stations outside of the U.S. captured the censored audio following the wild confrontation.
