Jamie Lee Curtis gracefully received her first-ever Oscar during the 95th Annual Academy Awards.

The beloved actress – who appeared in the likes of Trading Places, True Lies, A Fish Called Wanda, and the Halloween franchise – took to the stage at Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, California, to receive an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress for her role in ‘Everything Everywhere All at Once.’

Visibly emotional, Curtis delivered an impassioned speech in which she paid a tribute to her co-stars and dedicated the award to her late parents.

“I know it looks like I am standing up here by myself, but I am not. I am hundreds of people. My bae Michelle (Yeoh), Ke (Huy Quan), Stephanie (Hsu) – the entire group of artists who made this movie – we just won an Oscar,” she said.

“To my dream team: my agent Rick Kurtzman, Alan Wertheimer, Heidi Schaeffer, Sean James, Grace Ahn, Jane Ross. We just won an Oscar!

“To my family, my beautiful husband, Christopher Guest; our daughters, Annie and Ruby; my sister Kelly. We just won an Oscar! To all of the people who have supported the genre movies that I have made for all these years, the thousands and hundreds of thousands of people, we just won an Oscar together.”

Unable to fight back her tears any longer, the actress concluded: “My mother and my father were both nominated for Oscars in different categories. I just won an Oscar.”

After the announcement, Curtis was inundated with warm congratulations from fans and fellow movie industry figures including Halloween director John Carpenter who tweeted: “Congratulations Jamie Lee! You are the bomb!”
