SAG Award for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Leading Role in a Motion Picture – and she clearly couldn’t hold back her excitement, even dropping the f-bomb during her historic, emotional speech.The “Crazy Rich Asians” star was visibly overcome with emotion when her win was announced. “I think if I speak, my heart will explode,” Yeoh began. “Everyone of you know the journey, the roller coaster ride, the ups and downs.

But most importantly, we never give up.”She continued: “I thank you for your love, for your support because I know I am up against titans.”Flustered, Yeoh had to step away from the microphone, letting out a “s—” and “f—!” as both her and the audience laughed.“This is not just for me, this is for every little girl that looks like me,” the actor continued. “Thank you for giving me a seat at the table because so many of us need this ― we want to be seen; we want to be heard.

And tonight you have shown us that it is possible. And I am grateful, and my mom will be eternally grateful to you.”Earlier in the evening, Ke Huy Quan received an award for Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Supporting Role.
