Viola Davis’ childhood was far from ideal. Struggling with poverty and racism, the “Fences” star’s very humble beginnings were tough, but instilled a fire in her that propelled Viola to where she is today. And that is a pretty remarkable place. Not only is she regarded as one of her generation’s greatest actors (hello, EGOT!), she’s also become a role model for Black women everywhere. And for that, she deserves all the flowers. You can follow Brooke and Aricia on socials at @brookesiffrinn and @...

Happy New Year, Richies! Given that we resolve to start living our best lives this time of year, we thought we’d focus on a star who’s always done that.

And now, even in her 80s, this iconoclast is still...
