Big Win

At the recently concluded 67th Annual Golden Globe Awards, the night's most important win and best acceptance speech went to big actress Mo'Nique.



Here's a transcript of her acceptance speech:

First let me say, thank you, God, for this amazing ride that you’re allowing me to go on.

Everybody kept asking me do I know my speech, and I said, ‘No, I don’t know what I’m going to say because I don’t want people to think I just know I done won something,’ so no, I don’t know! But I am shaking when I tell you all I am in the midst of my dream and when I look into the eyes of the man I stood next to at 14 years old and I said to him, ‘One day we’re going to be stars, and he said, ‘You first. And we walked this red carpet together tonight. Sidney, I will love you more than you will ever know, baby.

Lee Daniels, the world gets a chance to see how brilliant you are. You are a brilliant, fearless, amazing director who would not waver, and thank you for trusting me. To Gabby, sister, I am in awe of you. Thank you for letting me play with you.

I celebrate this award with all the Precious’, with all the Mary’s — I celebrate this award with every person that’s ever been touched. It’s now time to tell. And it’s okay.
