Story behind her Red Carpet Date:

We have a story about 35-years-old skilled actress Aduba’s long-term friendship. While being in the high school, undoubtedly ‘prom’ had been the most awaited function, so far. And when we are in the entertainment industry ‘awards show’ are the most awaited one.

 On a very special award show Screen Actors Guild Awards held on January 30, 2016, Aduba invited her friend from kindergarten as her date for the evening. Aduba in her statement said;

 ”He asked me to prom, I said yes. I asked him to SAGs, he said yes.”

Aduba accepted Mark’s proposal for being his date back in high school and was the payback time for Mark, and he agreed to the proposal of Aduba for being a date on SAGs.

Aduba made her appearance on the red carpet of SAG with an adorable shining green dress. She collected a couple of awards that night. First, her Second straight SAG Award for her role as ‘crazy eyes’ on Netflix hit show “Orange Is The New Black”  and second, her show also collected the award for outstanding ensemble in a comedy series.  And How can we forget her inspiring speech?

After collecting the award, composing the calm gesture on stage, she started her speech thanking the show’s creator Jenji Kohan.

Then she continued,

“I would like to take an opportunity to acknowledge the actors who are at home,not here in this room with us, but hoping to one day be in this room with us to continue to keep trying,to keep plugging,to keep working no matter if anybody tells you to get out of that line you’re waiting – stay in line, you have the chance, it is yours.”

Isn’t it very sweet and inspiring one? I bet you agree on that.

That speech of hers must have made her best friend quite proud at the very moment.

Aduba has repeatedly shared her picture with Mark sometimes describing their friendship “priceless” and sometimes celebrating the occasions. She has given equal priority to friendship as she gives that to her other relation.
