What she said at the end to her mother and father. It was just like a little girl coming home from school and telling her parents that she won something that day. Beautiful.
"Oh, shut up!" was her initial response. š¤£š¤£š¤£
Love her! And I'm kind of tired of people picking on "nepo babies." If they're talentless, that's one thing, but some of them are...well...Jamie Lee Curtis! (Who is godmother to two other incredible nepo babies, Jake and Maggie Gyllenhaal. Sometimes talent just runs in the family.)
For awhile, Jamie Lee Curtis had stopped acting. She said that she became selective with her projects so she could spend more time with family and indicated she would probably quit soon. Itās great that she returned and won an Oscar!
When she says "I'm hundreds of people" and also "We just won an Oscar together!" really give me chill.. And the last line really got me tear up.. So happy for her win..
The fact she didnt expect to win make this even more beautiful to me. For 46 years Jamie Lee has been in the industry. For 46 years she's been seeing her peers get Oscars and other awards. Never once had she been disappointed or acted like she was robbed. She always applaud and was proud and so happy for the winners. I'm so glad she got her Oscar, she is such a great actress and such an amazing person all around. She won this Oscar and she deserved to be celebrated!
Curtis and Yeoh are great actresses who were snubbed at awards for decades because they liked doing genre films. Seeing them both get their first Oscar for the same unconventional movie is awesome.
Throughout her speech she kept saying āwe won an Oscarā until that last moment when she talked about her parents and let out āI just won an Oscarā. You can tell how much this meant to her to give so much credit to everybody, but she gave herself that last moment. Years of living in her parentsā shadow and never getting a nomination, then to finally win.
I know she didnāt plan all that in her head, but it makes for such a special moment
Jamie Lee Curtis spent her whole life, her career, making movies that most of Hollywood and certainly the Oscars turn their noses up to. Despite that shunning of the snobs and arteests, the rest of us ordinary people absolutely adored her work and held her close in our hearts. To see her finally get the recognition of an Oscar is a tearful moment.
Stephanie being so happy that she was almost crying was so sweet and heart warming, she didnāt care that she lost she was just so happy that someone so amazing and deserving of an Oscar has finally won one
She's the true definition of genuine. From her reaction to hearing her name, to nearly crying from telling her parents that she won. Jamie Lee Curtis deserved this all the way.
Everyone who won in the acting categories, Michelle, Brendan, Ke and Jamie, their speeches were filled with humility and gratitude. All of them really deserved their wins
