Anika Noni Rose holds Cicely Tyson down during moment of nerves at Emmys
Tyson received a standing ovation from the audience, and in that moment, she became a bit overwhelmed with nerves.
During the 69th Annual Emmy Awards, the legendary Cicely Tyson appeared alongside Anika Noni Rose to present the award for Outstanding Limited Series.
Tyson received a standing ovation from the audience, and in that moment, she became a bit overwhelmed with nerves.
After the 92-year-old actress recalled her own performance several decades ago in the Roots miniseries, she took a sudden, long pause.
That’s when Rose stepped in to support her fellow actress, leaning over to encourage Tyson to keep going in a show of beautiful solidarity.
Check out the touching moment from the Emmys below.
