Michelle Yeoh gave an inspiring speech after making Oscar history with her Best Actress win

Michelle Yeoh gave an inspiring speech after winning an Oscar.

Everything Everywhere All at Once star Michelle Yeoh capped her stellar awards season with the Best Actress Oscar.

After winning numerous accolades for her performance in the film, Yeoh won her first Academy Award on Sunday night and became only the second woman of color to ever win the Best Actress trophy.

She is also the first Asian woman to ever win the award.

To make the moment that much more powerful, Oscar winner Halle Berry gave Yeoh the trophy. Berry was the first woman of color to win the award more than 20 years ago for her role in Monster’s Ball.

Yeoh spoke to the historic moment by mentioning how the victory would inspire people across the globe.

Yeoh’s career has been one for the ages, and she’s now earned the highest honor the film industry can give her. It’s such an awesome moment for Yeoh and Everything Everywhere All at Once, which later won Best Picture.

Her speech will inspire anyone who watches it, and her message will ring true for years to come.

Michelle Yeoh’s awards history at the Oscars

Has Michelle Yeoh won an Oscar? We’ve got the answer.

Michelle Yeoh has one of the most trailblazing careers of anyone in Hollywood.

She transitioned from being an action star in Hong Kong cinema to being a major player in the American film industry, with her turn in 1997’s Tomorrow Never Dies and 2000’s Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon helping fuel her stateside breakout.

With her acclaimed performance in last year’s Everything Everywhere All at Once, she could take home the Best Actress at Sunday’s 95th Academy Awards.

Has she ever won an Oscar before, or would this be her first?

This is actually her first nomination at the Academy Awards, although she earned plenty of attention for Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and could’ve been nominated for that martial-arts classic.

Yeoh is primarily contending with Tár‘s Cate Blanchett for the Best Actress Oscar. One of those two have the best chance at the honor. Yeoh won the Screen Actors Guild, while Blanchett won the BAFTA.

It’ll be a photo finish between the two Hollywood heavyweights.

Predicting the 95th Academy Awards, which looks good for Everything Everywhere All at Once

Which films will take home Oscars this weekend? We have our guesses.

With the 95th Academy Awards just around the corner, it’s time we roll up our sleeves and make some predictions.

While it’s impossible to really know what will win (outside of a few locked-in categories), we here at For The Win have a hunch as to what will take home the Oscar gold on Sunday.

Predicting the Oscars is kind of like predicting the Super Bowl. You can size up stats, watch film (literally) and make your best-educated guess, but it’s anyone’s game.

The Academy Awards have long defied perfection on the prediction board; you’re always more lucky to get things right than expectant to.

We’ve gone through all the non-short film categories and rounded up who we think will win. If we’re right, we’re smart and knew all along. If we’re not, blame the Academy not us!

Everything Everywhere All at Once actress Michelle Yeoh got so excited to win a Screen Actors Guild Award that she dropped an expletive.

Yeoh won her very first Screen Actors Guild honor on Sunday night for her performance in the Oscar frontrunner for Best Picture, and she delivered what’s sure to be one of the best speeches this awards season.

With Tár actress Cate Blanchett winning Best Actress at the BAFTAs last weekend, it should be a close call between Yeoh and Blanchett on Oscar night.

For now, enjoy Yeoh’s delightful acceptance speech, complete with a jubilant f-bomb for the ages.

NSFW language to follow.

Yeoh and co-stars Ke Huy Quan and Jamie Lee Curtis walked away big winners on Sunday night, as did their entire cast when the film won Best Ensemble to close the ceremony.

It feels more and more like Everything Everywhere All at Once is going to dominate at the Academy Awards in March, with Yeoh’s win another wonderful reminder.
