Sharing a photo on Instagram, Angela's emotions were evident as she shared her disbelief over being honored with a Lifetime Achievement Award for her work on stage and screen.

"Hey Everybody, you good? Me, I can scarcely believe that this poor little black girl from the projects of St. Pete, FL, has come so far and tonight will receive one of Glamour's Women of the Year Awards. God, you have blessed me beyond measure!" she wrote.

Angela looked stunning in her gown

Her fans were quick to react, with many blown away by her head-turning appearance. "Easily, the most beautiful and talented woman in Hollywood," replied one.

A second said: "Congrats Angela, you look absolutely stunning!" A third added: "The dress! Absolutely heavenly," and a fourth penned: "Always love seeing you wearing white. It complements you well."

Angela's appearance comes after she celebrated another monumental occasion – her 25th wedding anniversary with her husband Courtney B. Vance.

The actress was presented with a Lifetime Achievement Award

Last month, the couple hosted a party in honor of their milestone, with Angela sharing a sweet video of their celebrations on Instagram.

"25 years… When we first got married, we couldn't wait to say we made it to 10 years! Now look at how far we've come!" Angela captioned the post.

She added: "We've had successes, we've had failures; we've had spectacular wins, we've had devastating losses. But through it all there's been one, beautiful constant: We've always had each other! Thank you God for each and every one of these 25 years! We can't wait to do 25 more! 10/12/1997."
