The Golden Globes were full of plenty surprises Sundays.
But nearly nothing was a shocking as when Glenn Close eeked out a Best Actress win against crowd-favorite Lady Gaga.
The Wife actress, 71, brought the audience to tears with an emotional acceptance speech that she began by saying how ‘honored’ she was to be with ‘category sisters’ Lady Gaga, Nicole Kidman, Melissa McCarthy, and Rosamund Pike.

Contender: Melissa McCarthy was nominated for Best Actress for her film Can You Ever Forgive Me?
She had the whole crowd in tears, with actresses Charlize Theron, Caitriona Balfe and Melissa McCarthy also visibly welling up.
She spoke of past generations unfulfilled dreams too, telling the crowd: ‘I’m thinking of my mom, who really sublimated herself to my father her whole life, and in her eighties she said to me, «I feel I haven’t accomplished anything,» and it was so not right.
‘I feel what I’ve learned form this whole experience is that women, we’re nurturers and that’s what’s expected of us. We have our children and husbands if we’re lucky enough…. but we have to find personal fulfillment. We have to follow our dreams we have to say, «I can do that,» and «I should be allowed to do that.»
