DeBose later got flack for the performance online, with social media users on Twitter calling the lyrics"cringy" and"painful" to watch."Angela Bassett did the thing, Viola Davis my 'Woman King,' Cate Blanchett you're a genius, Jamie Lee you are all of us," were the most viral lyrics of the night.
After the online backlash, the"Westworld" star promptly deactivated her Twitter account after receiving a barrage of negative comments. In a series of memes making fun of DeBose’s lyrics posted to Instagram, the actress left a comment regarding the internet’s endless jokes about the number.Some of the memes in the post included a grandmother saying"Angela Bassett did the thing," to which her granddaughter responded,"Sure Grandma, let’s get you to bed." While another used a photo of former President George W. Bush learning about the 9/11 attacks for the first time.
In an interview with Variety, Bullen explained he had no regrets about the number and felt it"spoke to what we wanted to do."
