At the 2024Critics Choice Awards,Fantasia Barrinowanted to know: “Where are the lamb chops?”
Oprah Dailycaught the momentthatThe Color Purple’s Barrino,Taraji P. Henson,Danielle Brooksand Oprah Winfrey (whoco-produced the remake) were served the flatbread. In a video posted to Instagram, a server is seen handing out the pizza bags from a box hanging from her neck.
All four women had very different reactions to the meal. Barrino deadpanned the camera and asked for something with more substance. Henson gladly grabbed a slice, and Brooks smiled with her pizza. Winfrey, however, skipped the food. She pointed to her mouth and said, “I’m not messing up my lips!”
The Color Purplewasnominatedfor best picture, best acting ensemble, best costume design and best hair and makeup. Brookes was also nominated for best supporting actress. The movie did not take home a win on Sunday but the cast has been supporting each other on the red carpet and at events since before the movie premiered in theaters on Dec. 25.
