Teyana Taylor Sends Amy Madigan Love Following Oscars Win: “This Is Why I Will Always Stand Up For This Incredible Woman”

The admiration between Teyana Taylor and Amy Madigan is mutual, and throughout the award season, the stars have shown their support.

Following Madigan’s win at the Oscars, Taylor sent her some love and explained why she would always “stand up” for her.

“And this is why I will always stand up for this incredible woman,” Taylor wrote on her Instagram Stories. “The amount of love she shows in front and behind the scenes is beyond the sweetest & so genuine.”

She continued, “My lady Amy always representing. It’s how much un she’s having in her concrete rose garden gear & her concrete rose 3’s.”

Taylor seemingly sent Madigan the sneakers she created in collaboration with Nike called “Concrete Rose.” The Weapons villain sported the shoes and an apron bearing Taylor’s logo.

Taylor’s post comes after she clapped back at some social media users who criticized her for her effusive reaction to seeing Madigan win the Academy Award in the Supporting Actress category, in which they were both nominated.

When Zoe Saldaña announced Madigan as a winner, Taylor jumped out of her seat and enthusiastically applauded for her fellow nominee, which some people thought was “off.”

“The world holds so much misery that miserable hearts forget the face of happiness,” Taylor wrote on the microblogging platform, X, quoting a user who shared a clip of that moment. “They grow comfortable being sore losers, so when they see real sportsmanship it unsettles them! like holy water touching a demon.”

She continued, “Because clapping for someone else’s victory requires something many people never learned…how to win with grace & pure joy, and how to lose with grace, chin up & dignity.”
