Actress Demi Moore won the Golden Globe for Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy for her role in the body-horror film 'The Substance'. Moore, known for her roles in films like 'Ghost' and 'A Few Good Men', expressed surprise and gratitude for the award, revealing it to be her first major acting accolade. In her acceptance speech, Moore shared a powerful story about overcoming self-doubt and a past producer's dismissive comment that she was a 'popcorn actress'. She reflected on a period of career stagnation and a belief that her time in the spotlight was over, before ultimately finding a resurgence through the unique script of 'The Substance'.
In what was perhaps the most shocking win of the Golden Globes in the early going Sunday night, Demi Moore snagged a statuette for best film actress in a musical or comedy for her leading role in body-horror film ' The Substance .' Moore was up against some strong front-runners in the category, such as Karla Sofía Gascón in 'Emilia Pérez' and Cynthia Erivo in 'Wicked.
'The Substance' follows Elisabeth Sparkle , a washed-up actor who gets fired from her long-running job as a TV fitness instructor because she is deemed too old. Offered an opportunity to take a “substance” to reveal a better version of herself, Sparkle takes it, in turn creating Sue , a younger, hotter and, therefore, more successful, version of Sparkle, who tries to claim her predecessor’s life as her own. Things, of course, go awry.
