Octavia Spencer 'freaks out' over Oscar win




It's official. Octavia Spencer just won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress!

The Help actress has swept this whole Award season winning almost each award for which she's been nominated. And now she can add the crème de la crème to her mantel.

The 39-year-old Montgomery, Alabama native, in a Tadashi Shoji gown, gave an emotional acceptance speech and thanked her home state of Alabama, her L.A. family, Steven Spielberg, and other members of her team.

This is Octavia's first Academy Award win and nomination. And she is the 5th black actress to win for Best Actress In A Supporting Role
