Oprah Winfrey's Jaw-Dropping Emmy Flowers for Niecy Nash-Betts Took Four Men to Deliver


The media mogul sent the extravagant bouquet as congratulations after Nash-Betts won her first Primetime Emmy Award.

Nash-Betts explains that she's been away from home filming season 3 of Don't Forget the Lyrics and was unable to celebrate her victory, so the delivery was a huge surprise to her. She had previously been nominated three times, and when she finally scored the gold statuette, Nash-Betts capitalized on the moment with a heartfelt and emotional speech that included a shout-out to her mom, Margaret Ensley. After striking a pose, Nash-Betts then dedicated her first Primetime Emmy to "every Black and brown woman who have gone unheard, yet overpoliced, like Glenda Cleveland, like Sandra Bland, like Breonna Taylor."
