I have no particular opinions on that subject, I guess as an actor you do always have that ambition to get recognition for your work in the form of awards (In a sense we all like getting rewarded) but you have to learn to look beyond that for moments of self recognition or other goals otherwise you will have moments like this. Also fuck people for making fun of her for being emotional. Even if she didn't deserve it she as a human is allowed to have feelings on winning.

Anyway I need to shut the fuck up because when I was a toddler I BEGGED my mother for a fox plushie that was on sale at our local market for months. I was ready to DIE for this fox, I had all kinds of dreams for our future and the adventures we would go on. Eventually she was like 'Jesus christ stfu' so she bought it for me and I swear the moment I had this thing in my hands I was like 'Ok thanks. So what now'. I had it and now it was over.

I totally get you, you think that the Fox plushie is the end all be all, but once you get it, your life is still the same, but now you have a plushie. I used to feel that way when I dyed my hair in my teens.

me but as an adult tbh

life is just the chase for one fox plushie after another
