After a few days of garnering accolades for the 2023 Golden Globes, Jennifer Coolidge once again managed to win hearts at another award show. This time it was the Critics Choice Awards 2023.
Coolidge won the 28th Critics Choice Award for Best Supporting Actress in a Drama Series for her performance in The White Lotus. Her trophy was presented alongside the award for the Best Supporting Actor in a Drama Series.
Modern Family’s Sara Hyland and Abbott Elementary’s Quinta Brunson gave away the awards. After Giancarlo Esposito gave his speech on his win over Better Call Saul, Jennifer got the chance to take over the stage and her speech impressed the audience and viewers.
She was lauded for the following line:
“It’s not over until you’re dead.”
Fans can't stop gushing over Jennifer Coolidge’s Critics Choice Awards speech
Jennifer Coolidge won the Critics Choice Awards 2023 for her performance in The White Lotus. She is the only cast member from her show to win multiple awards for the drama series.
After receiving the award, she won hearts with her speech. She began by saying:
“Thank you Critics Choice Awards. What’s so funny? No I just wanna thank you. I know you’ve heard a lot from me from the last month or two, but I just wanna say this is such an honor. This is…uh…this is really kinda good as it gets, critics you know."
She added:
"I just, uh, not just, you know, from west coast and east coast , but all over the country, voting for this night, I just wanna say thank you. I just wanna say to all the people out there, for anyone who sort of given up hope, I hope this gives you inspiration. It’s not over till it’s over. It’s not over until you’re dead."
Fans loved her Critics Choice Awards speech and cheered for the actress on Twitter.
Jennifer Coolidge plays the role of Tanya McQuoid in The White Lotus. For the drama series, she won several awards last year, including a Primetime Emmy, an ACCEC Award, and a Cooler Award. Last week, she won the Golden Globes for her performance in the Mike White-created show.
In her Golden Globes 2023 speech, Jennifer said:
“I just want you all to know that I had such big dreams and expectations as a younger person, but what happened was they get sort of fizzled by life or whatever and I thought I was gonna be queen of Monaco, even though someone else did it, but I had these giant ideas and then you get older and it’s just not happening. And I just want to say, Mike White, you’ve given me hope.”
