Recently, the 'Monster's Ball' star paid tribute to the legendary actor Sidney Poitier upon his unfortunate passing in a Variety cover story. In the cover photo of Variety, she can be seen wearing a black blouse with leather pants and knee-high boots while sitting next to Sidney, who just calmly gazed at the camera.
The actress wrote, "I will recall him as my first mirror, and the true measure of a man and I will forever see him as the angel in the balcony watching over all of us." She added, "His work behind the scenes was as important as his on-screen work. It served as a blueprint for future filmmakers, for Black people who yearned to demonstrate their value on both sides of the camera."
