“The people who love being there, they’re there, [and] they’re there holding me up,” Bassett said of her family, and the cadre of close friends and stylists who accompanied them to the star-studded event. “You can’t do it alone.”<\/span><\/p>\n

“[To the] fans who’ve gone to see the movie and support it — I felt the love,” Bassett shared. “I’m getting chills now, but I felt the love all these years. I mean, they have prayed, they have fussed, they have written, they have had my back.”<\/span><\/p>\n

“So it feels really satisfying to receive this,” she added. “I’m humbled.”<\/span><\/p>\n
