It goes without saying the amount of hard work Octavia Spencer has put into Hollywood. As an actress, writer, producer and director she has helped create well over 90 projects in her career. Who knew it would be the hilarious but serious Minnie from the book The Help that would give Octavia her chance to wow The Academy. Well it worked and last night Octavia Spencer ousted great opposition to win the Oscar for the Best Supporting Actress in a film for her role in The Help. The acceptance speech by far was one of the most genuine and most heart felt. She forgot to thank God though. Unfortunately her co-star Viola Davis was not fortunate enough to win losing out to Meryl Streep. Who didn't see that coming though.
