Fleabag creator Phoebe Waller-Bridge's 2020 awards season triumph continues.
The actress took home Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Comedy Series at the 2020 SAG Awards for her role in the show and came prepared with a speech to read this time.
"I don't trust myself not to be bleeped out this time," she told the crowd while reading a speech. She memorably gave a hilarious Golden Globes speech where she joked about President Obama.
After Obama named Fleabag as one of his favorite shows on his annual end of the year list, Waller-Bridge thanked the former president personally at the Golden Globes, saying, "Personally, I would like to also thank Obama for putting us on his list. As some of you may know, he's always been on mine. And if you don’t get that, please watch season one of Fleabag really, really quickly."
Tonight, she was a bit more serious, thanking the room for being "so supportive" as well as paying tribute to "the six pack that my makeup artist drew on me this weekend" which was on display in her midriff baring ensemble.
"At some point, it will all hit me and I'll just go into a corner and have a good old cry about it... in a room I never imagined I would be in," she said emotionally.
When The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel won next for Best Ensemble, actress Alex Borstein joked that she voted for Fleabag.
After giving her acceptance speech, Waller-Bridge was seen in the crowd having a conversation with Jennifer Lopez.
During the Critic's Choice Awards, Waller-Bridge informed the crowd that Lopez had inspired the Hot Priest character.
"I don't know where she is, but I decided that the Priest's favorite song was 'Jenny from the Block,' and it opened the entire character up for me," Waller-Bridge said during her Critic's Choice Awards acceptance speech. It looks like she really is having the best awards season ever.
