Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor Called Out "The Color Purple" Remake For Its Erasure Of Black Lesbian Romance
Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor just might be one of the hardest-working actors in show business today. Over the past half-decade, she's delivered stunning performances in critically acclaimed projects such as When They See Us, Lovecraft Country, Origin, and King Richard, alongside Will Smith. Ellis-Taylor's portrayal in the latter as Oracene "Brandy" Price, the revered matriarch of tennis icons Serena and Venus Williams, earned her first Oscar nomination in 2022, marking a significant milestone in her illustrious career.Yet, perhaps even more noteworthy was her public revelation of her bisexuality at an Essence magazine luncheon that same year.
