The 64-year-old actress won her first Academy Award for performing in Everything, Everywhere at Once.
“Both my mother and father were nominated for Academy Awards in different categories,” Curtis explained. “I just won an Academy Award!”
During an emotional acceptance speech, she expressed her gratitude to her family and everyone who has supported her “genre flicks” since she began her career in 1977.
Curtis appeared on the Today Show with Savannah Guthrie and Hoda Kotb on March 14, admitting she was still in shock.
