Demi Moore Wins Golden Globe for Best Actress Comedy or Musical: “First time I’ve ever won anything for acting”

Demi Moore won a Golden Globe tonight for Best Actress in a musical or comedy.

Her movie, “The Substance,” is neither but who cares? It’s the Golden Globes.

Demi told the audience in accepting the award: “I’ve been doing this for 45 years and this is the first time I’ve ever won anything for acting.”

Moore said she was told she was a “popcorn actress” early in her career, and would never be considered a real actress. This award is a pay off for 30 years in the business. It’s also a reward for being a good sport in her life and her career.

Sebastian Stan won Best Actor in a musical or comedy for “A Different Man,” also not a comedy or a musical. Again, who cares? It’s Chinatown, Jake!

Will either win an Oscar? Unlikely. But it pushes them up on a possible run for a nomination.
