Awards shows can occasionally feel a little manufactured, but Saturday night’s Screen Actors Guild Awards featured an incredibly heartwarming moment offstage for Anne Hathaway.
Hathaway, who was in attendance in part for a Devil Wears Prada reunion, joined with the entire crowd at the show to stand and applaud entertainment legend Barbra Streisand, who was receiving the Screen Actors Guild Life Achievement Award.
Once the camera panned over to Hathaway, she was moved to tears by seeing Streisand honored, which was such a wholesome moment and shows just how much the actors in that room respect one another, especially when the totality of their careers are being recognized.

Like so many actors and musicians, Hathaway has clearly been inspired by Streisand over the years, as the two have even collaborated on music with each other in the past.
Everyone watching the awards ceremony related to seeing Hathaway’s heartfelt reaction to Streisand’s honor, which reminded us all of how moved we can all feel when an artist we love gets their due for the work that’s impacted us so much.
