"I don't even know what to say," he reiterated, stressing with a laugh that he was blinking, not winking, as Knight teased him to do as a tacit yes gesture. "But I love the fact that I'm in all these conversations, that's a beautiful thing."
The 54-year-old, who's also in the Oscar conversation for his gripping turn in The Color Purple (Fantasia Barrino and Danielle Brooks constitute the film's sole Globe nominations), is unequivocally enjoying a moment, one that's been years in the making.
Domingo, clad in custom Louis Vuitton, told Knight that he likes to think he's persevered when the going got tough in his business with the spirit of his parents. "My parents both passed away in 2006," he explained, "and they gave me nothing but love, support and encouragement. And by 2006 I was still an actor who would bartend here and there and work in the theater. But I know that they gave me a lot of love and a lot of faith, and to believe in things that I couldn't see. I think that that's how I'm here."
