Angela came onto the Golden Globes' platform looking absolutely radiant as she wore a curve-hugging silver halter dress embellished with crystals.

Her taut skin glowed a rich brown hue under the stage lights, making her look breathtakingly gorgeous.

The Black Panther leading woman's presence at this year's awards ceremony has sparked much conversation given how young she appeared to look for her age.

Fans on Twitter were in disbelief that a woman as vivacious as the Oscar-nominated actress is in the senior citizen age group when she can easily pass for much younger.

FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH

On Twitter a fan praised: "Angela Bassett is 64 years old. She must be a kind person to look that good at 64 because kindness is a fountain of youth."

Another fan complimented: "Well deserved! 64 and still looking like a whole snack!"

A third fan exclaimed: "ANGELA BASSETT IS 64???? WTF SHE LOOKS SO YOUNG."

Other fans jokingly implied that Angela must be a mythical "vampire," vampires don't age, since she doesn't seem to ever get older.

"...She could in fact be a vampire because there’s no way she should look as good as she does — No freaking way," one fan on Twitter expressed.

Alongside celebrating her youthful beauty, many fans commended her for her emotive tribute to Chadwick Boseman during her award acceptance speech for Best Actress in A Supporting Role.

Chadwick and Angela starred in the first Black Panther film together in 2018.

He passed away in 2020 at the age of 43 from colon cancer prior to the release of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever in 2022.

Her acknowledging him during her special moment was not only endearing, but also moving to fans.

One fan admitted: "Not Angela Bassett making me weep with her acceptance speech. SHE DESERVED TO WIN."

Another fan added: "Angela Bassett remembering Chadwick Boseman in her acceptance speech [sad face emoji] I’m emo[tional]."

MAKING HISTORY

Angela's win is historic for the Hollywood star and the Marvel Cinematic Universe she's a part of.

Apparently the award-winner is the first actor to win a Golden Globe for a performance in a MCU film.

Many Marvel fans were proud of Angela since a victory for her is also a victory for MCU and the universe's fans.

One fan congratulated on Twitter: "Angela Bassett being the first MCU actor to win a golden globe — and a major acting award — for their work in a marvel movie is the greatest thing to ever happen."

Another fan seconded: "This moment right here.. I'm glad Angela Bassett won tonight and to be the first actor from Marvel is amazing."

The now two-time Golden Globe holder of course thanked the Marvel fans in her speech, which made fans love it that much more.
