KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 27 — American actress Jamie Lee Curtis planted a kiss on co-star Tan Sri Michelle Yeoh’s lips after winning the Screen Actors Guild Awards 2023.

The 64-year-old iconic star jumped up and kissed Yeoh after she was announced the winner of Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Supporting Role for her performance in Everything Everywhere All At Once.

In a short viral clip, Curtis was seen yelling “shut up” after her name was called and she quickly jumped from her seat to the roaring cheer from the audience.

She then grabbed Yeoh and planted a kiss on her lips.

Curtis also took a moment in her speech to pay a tribute to her co-star by saying that Yeoh was the reason she signed on to star in the “weird” movie that earned her a career-first Oscar nomination.

“Where is Michelle Yeoh??” she asked the crowd. “I say ‘Michelle.’ You say ‘Yeoh!’, Michelle Yeoh, I love you I love you I love you.”

Yeoh also picked up the Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Leading Role at the awards night in Los Angeles today.

The other nominees for the category were: Cate Blanchett (Tár), Viola Davis (The Woman King), Ana de Armas (Blonde) and Danielle Deadwyler (Till).

Yeoh is also nominated for Best Actress at this year’s Academy Awards next month.
