We Dare You Not to Cry While Listening to Niecy Nash-Betts' Emotional Emmy Awards Acceptance Speech

Iecy Nash-Betts accepts the Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie award for “Dahmer – Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story” onstage during the 75th Primetime Emmy Awards.

Niecy Nash-Betts gave a moving speech during the 75th Primetime Emmy Awards on Monday, Dec. 15.

After winning for Best Supporting Actress in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie for her work in the Netflix show Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story, Nash-Betts took the Emmy stage and gave what many believe to be one of the best acceptance speeches of all-time.

“I’m a winner, baby!" Nash-Betts shouted while hoisting her Emmy trophy triumphantly in the air. "Thank you to the most high for this divine moment. Thank you Ryan Murphy for seeing me. Evan Peters, I love you. Netflix. Every single person who voted for me, thank you. My better half who picked me up when I was gutted from this work, thank you."
