Jamie Lee Curtis had a big reaction to co-star Michelle Yeoh’s win at this year’s Golden Globes that summed up the feelings of pretty much everyone watching.
The two actors share the screen in the epic comedy-drama Everything Everywhere All At Once, which earned Michelle her first Golden Globe nomination in the category of Best Actress In A Comedy Or Musical.
During Tuesday night’s ceremony, the Tomorrow Never Dies star was announced as the recipient of the award, prompting a big reaction from her co-star.
And the moment did not go unnoticed over on Twitter, with many saying they were celebrating Michelle’s win in much the same way as Jamie...
After the event, the Halloween Ends star shared a picture of her reaction on Instagram, commenting: “Once a cheerleader. ALWAYS a cheerleader. My Bae won a Golden Globe. Her first nomination and win.”
On the red carpet before the Golden Globes, Jamie told Variety about how Michelle’s involvement in Everything Everywhere All At Once was a deciding factor in her signing up.
“My agent said to me, ‘you know, it’s pretty out there’, and I was like, ‘yeah, but Michelle Yeoh is going to be in the movie, right?’. And he said ‘yes’, and I said, ‘yeah, I’ll do it’,’ she recalled.
“The movie itself was less important to me, it was important that I understood who Deirdre [her character] was and I understood who Evelyn [Michelle’s character] was, and their relationship and their love story.”
Jamie was also nominated for her performance in Everything Everywhere All At Once in the Best Supporting Actress In A Motion Picture category.
However, this award went to Angela Bassett for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever on the night.
