Viola Davis clears up confusion, she didn’t technically buy the sharecropper’s shack she was born
It did seem a little strange to celebrate the purchase of the shack that was on the plantation instead of buying the actual plantation.
For Viola Davis — who created a sensation on social media on Tuesday when she announced she “owns” the home she was born in — neither is the case.
There were no official sales transactions for the Saint Matthews, S.C., birthplace of the Oscar, Emmy and Grammy Award-winning actress and producer.
She has clarified her initial comments about the sharecropper’s shack in which she was born.
