Chadwick Boseman's Wife Breaks Down In Tears As The Actor Wins Best Actor Golden Globe Award
Chadwick Boseman made history this year at Golden Globes 2021 awards by bagging his first Golden Globe nomination and also his first win.
"He would say something beautiful. Something inspiring. Something that would amplify that little voice inside of all of us that tells you you can, that tells you to keep going, that calls you back to what you are meant to be doing at this moment in history."
This is what his wife Taylor Simone Boseman said giving a speech in place of Chadwick Boseman, the talent we lost last year due to cancer. It was tearful speech and an emotional moment for the fans and audience as well.

"He would thank Mr. George C. Wolfe, Mr. Denzel Washington. He would thank Ms. Viola Davis, Mr. Glynn Turman, Mr. Michael Potts, Mr. Colman Domingo, Miss Taylour Paige, Mr. Dusan Brown. And I don't have his words. But we have to take all the moments to celebrate those we love, so thank you, HFPA, for this opportunity to do exactly that," she continued.
"And, hon? You keep 'em coming," she concluded.
Boseman made history this year by bagging his first Golden Globe nomination that he also won posthumously. He won the award for portrayal of Levee Green in Ma Rainey's Black Bottom.
