Sheryl Lee Ralph knows where her voice belongs — and she’s finally getting the recognition she deserves.
The “Abbott Elementary” star brought down the house Monday at the Emmys with a stunning rendition of Dianne Reeves’ “Endangered Woman” during her acceptance speech for supporting actress in a comedy series for playing the stern yet dedicated Ms. Howard in the ABC sitcom about an inner-city Philadelphia school.
“To anyone who has ever, ever had a dream and thought your dream wasn’t, wouldn’t, couldn’t come true, I am here to tell you that this is what believing looks like,” the 56-year-old actress said in her acceptance speech.
