The actress became the second Asian woman to win Best Actress in a Motion Picture – Comedy or Musical.
The beloved actress won tonight for playing Evelyn Wong in the mind-bending multiverse film, receiving long-deserved accolades and recognitions at this point in her decades-long career. During her speech—which she refused to finish early, even speaking back when they began to play her off—the international star reflected on her career and thanked her collaborators on the film, including its directing duo The Daniels and her co-stars Stephanie Hsu, Key Huy Quan, and Jamie Lee Curtis.
"It’s been an amazing journey and incredible fight to be here today, but I think it’s worth it. I remember when I first came to Hollywood, it was a dream come true until I got here," she said, adding, "I came here and was told, 'You're a minority,' and I was like, 'No that's not possible.'"
