And the award goes to…Viola Davis. The “Help” star snagged the Outstanding Performance By A Female Actor In A Leading Role award during the Screen Actors Guild Awards in Hollywood last night.
Decked in a white Marchesa gown, Davis thanked actresses Cecily Tyson and Meryl Streep for inspiring her to become an actress.
“What is there but a dream?” she said delivering a message to youth in her hometown in Rhode Island. “Dream big, and dream fierce,” she added.
