Sterling was just nominated at the Oscar’s for the first time ever and Devale wants to see him win.

He shared on Instagram:

“Over 5 years ago I met @sterlingkbrown at the @blacklove Live show in LA. He was coming off of the success of The People vs. OJ Simpson, Marshall, Black Panther & This Is Us. Sterling was on his way.

Since then I’ve watched his career continue to grow. He is a multiple Emmy, NAACP Image & Golden Globe Award winner. We exchanged numbers and often text to congratulate each other when things are going well, but today is different. MY GUY IS NOMINATED FOR AN OSCAR for his role in American Fiction!!!💫

Congrats my friend. You continue to inspire all of us with your kindness, humility, commitment to family, but most importantly YOUR WORK! For me personally you inspire me to stay consistent, to be patient TO BE BETTER & always remain positive. You are a legend in this industry Sir, and you deserve all of these flowers. 💪🏾

Love this. Devale is always supporting his peers.
