The eloquent actress touched many hearts this year at the AMVCA after she got a standing ovation for her Industry Merit Award.
She had told the audience at the award that “I wish I could stand up. But if I stand up I will fall down. Are you all standing for me? Thank you. I am very very grateful to you.”
