Angela Bassett has finally won her first Emmy Award. The 2024 Creative Arts Emmys awarded her Best Narrator accolades. This win came after nine nominations.
Angela was thrilled and thankful. Her efforts on the National Geographic series “Queens” brought her an award. This series tells stories about female animals in the wild. Being involved in this project, which was created by an all-women team, Angela claimed she was thrilled.
In her speech, Angela thanked National Geographic and the team behind “Queens.” She mentioned she wanted a break, hence she almost turned away from the endeavour. She chose to join though, after seeing a preview. She was proud to be part of a team that worked hard to tell these remarkable stories.
The victory of Angela marks a turning point in her career. She has been nominated several times before but has never won. Now, she finally has her Emmy, and she couldn’t be happier.
