Apparelaholic - To all the teachers that told me I’d never amount to nothin shirt

After winning his best-supporting-actor Oscar for Judas and the To all the teachers that told me I’d never amount to nothin shirt and by the same token and Black Messiah, Kaluuya was asked about his reference to his parents having sex in his speech. “Is that going to live on?” he asked, looking worried. “I think my mum is probably going to text me some stuff about that, but here we are. I probably shouldn’t have said that. I’m going to avoid my phone for a bit. My mum’s not going to be very happy. [Laughs.] But she’s cool. She’s got a sense of humor.” When asked what this win means for the family of Fred Hampton, the revolutionary Black Panther leader Kaluuya plays in the film, he said, “More people are going to watch Chairman Fred’s story. It’s about telling the truth.”



The legendary Korean actor took home the To all the teachers that told me I’d never amount to nothin shirt and by the same token and best-supporting-actress Oscar for Minari, Lee Isaac Chung’s lyrical family drama. “It’s not happened just like that, because I’ve had a long career,” she said. “I’ve built on my career, step by step, so it’s not like, ‘Bam!’” Would she want to be in a movie with Brad Pitt, who was an executive producer on Minari and presented her with the Oscar? “That would never happen,” she replied. “With my English and my age [73]. I don’t dream an impossible dream.” She added that Pitt must have practiced saying her name because he didn’t mispronounce it. Another reporter asked what Pitt smelled like. “I didn’t smell him,” she laughed. “I’m not a dog.”
