2020 Golden Globe Awards

My mother sent me a voice memo this morning that said ‘Good morning Emmy nominee, Critics Choice award nominee, and now Golden Globe nominee” hearing that I started to cry tears of absolute gratitude. Thank you thank you thank you to the HFPA for recognizing me alongside such brilliant actresses. Working on The Act impacted me so deeply as a person and as an actress in a way that I feel changed forever. I’ve gained more perspective, empathy, knowledge, and vulnerability to name a few things. Digging into Gypsy’s mindset was the most challenging work I’ve done, and I attribute so much of the way it resonated to @patriciaarquette and @calumworthy. Thank you for being the most generous people I’ve met. Acting with you, laughing with you and creating with you was a gift. Everyone involved in this show has a special place in my heart forever. Here’s to the future everyone. @goldenglobes

2020 Critics’ Choice Television Awards

Wow. If you had told me at the beginning of this year I would be nominated for a @criticschoice award for The Act, I would say, only in my dreams. Thank you so much. I’m incredibly honored ❤️
