During her emotional and inspiring speech, Moore reflected on a comment she received three decades ago from a producer who labeled her a “popcorn actress.” She shared, “At that time, I made that mean that this wasn’t something I was allowed to have, that I could do movies that were successful and made a lot of money, but then I couldn’t be acknowledged, and I bought in and I believed that.”

She further explained how, years later, she thought her career had peaked and she had achieved all she was meant to. Then, the unexpected happened The Substance, a daring, unique, and bold script, came her way. Moore described it as a sign from the universe telling her that her journey was far from over.

In one of the most moving parts of her speech, the Ghost star addressed feelings of self-doubt that many can relate to: “In those moments when we don’t think we are smart enough, or pretty enough, or skinny enough, or successful enough, or basically just not enough,” she said. Moore recounted the advice she received from a woman who told her to let go of the “measuring stick” and instead focus on the value of her worth.

Directed by Coralie Fargeat, The Substance  was both a critical and cultural success, sparking conversations around its provocative premise. The film also starred Margaret Qualley, Dennis Quaid, Hugo Diego Garcia, and Oscar Lesage.

In the category, Moore triumphed over notable performances from Cynthia Erivo (Wicked), Mikey Madison (Anora), Zendaya (Challengers), Karla Sofia Gascon (Emilia Perez), and Amy Adams (Nightb*itch). Her win not only celebrated her outstanding performance but also underscored the importance of perseverance and self-belief in a career spanning decades.
