Ke Huy Quan Credits Jamie Lee Curtis for His Part in Everything Everywhere All at Once | SiriusXM

I started tearing up too when Jamie cried! She is so genuine and should've gotten amazing roles long before this. The whole cast is so sweet and deserving of everything.

[riffleicious]

Usually awards season seems calculated and superficial, but the cast of EEAAO and Brendan Fraser is giving me so much joy. It’s so thrilling to see kind, humble people finally get their due.

And Jaime- when she was raised in an industry that chews people out, and to come out being a cheerleader for others and down to earth is amazing ❤

[oshl]

I love how Jamie Lee encourages & uplifts others, in an industry that sometimes gravitates toward pettiness and drama. It doesn't seem to be an act she puts on - this is genuinely who she really is. Jamie was also one of the FEW people who had nothing but nice things to say about her Freaky Friday co-star, Lindsay Lohan, in the past - before the Netflix comeback era, before it became trendy to root for her - when the press and industry had written her off. It didn't surprise me to discover that they have stayed in contact for two decades since filming wrapped. Such a beacon of an actress, with warmth and generosity of spirit!

[JohnnyBRad]

Jamie being the absolute biggest cheerleader and hype person for this movie brings me so much joy

[reml]

Even though Jamie is an original “nepo-baby”, she’s always used her privilege to lift others up. She’s very kind and I’m so happy for her success.

[oolongtea]

the reason why eeaao was able to work so well is because u can tell the cast genuinely love and care about each other. a family indeed. so glad all of them are finally getting their due, especially actors like michelle yeoh, ke huy quan, and james hong who have been overlooked for years because of their race.

[katescott]

when Ke voice cracked i began crying, he is such a beautiful person, every recognition that he received lately is so deserved i couldn't be more happy for this entire cast and The Daniels

[yolantida]

Jamie Lee Curtis is so kind and so genuine and uplifting and so is Ke Huy Quan!

[MuchAdoAboutADD]

Not Jamie making sure Ke doesn't undersell himself. I didn't want to cry this morning.

[westnilesnipes]

Jamie Lee Curtis is a good human. We should all aspire to be as positive and supportive and loving as her.

[oolongtea]

i will never forgive hollywood's unwillingness to cast asian actors and lack of opportunities for asians for making ke huy quan insecure about his acting. he has a gift and we were denied of so many legendary performances because of it. i'm sure, like he's mentioned, hearing rejection after rejection must've ruined his confidence as an actor, and i hope this award season proves to him that he's spectacular.

[siiiiiuu]

Jamie cutting Ke off as he was humbly praising her for her generosity to remind him that this was HIS moment. The way she demanded the conversation to redirect back on him. My trickle of tears turned into full-on sobbing 😭🥹

[TheDylls]

5:21 "You're the guest. Listen here, you..."

I got literal chills. THAT'S how a mom treats her kids

[devydu]

Just to add, Jamie Lee Curtis gave an amazing tribute to 93 year old James Hong when he finally received his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame last March. So much well deserved accolades to all the main actors in EEAAO who are all nominated for Oscars! How incredible is that?! But so happy James Hong received his recognition & star for his lifetime achievements in film & TV, and still so funny, active and youthful! Congrats to Michelle Yeoh, Ke Huy Quan, Stephanie Hsu and Jamie Lee (she's Asian too, right?)! May EEAAO have a grand winning sweep on Oscar night!

[colnag]

Jamie Lee Curtis is the ultimate example of how children of stars should be. Her start may have been because of her parents, but no one can say she hasn’t fought tooth and nail for her place as a star on her own name

[Acadian_Proud]

To watch this now, knowing they both won an Oscar for their work in the movie - it is amazing!!

[jkhegarty]

This movie won best actress, best supporting actress, best supporting actor, and best picture!! ❤ I am so glad these well-deserved actors won with honor!!

[hamitokia]

After knowing more and more of the details behind the scene, I strongly believe there's divine influences. Having Michelle getting the role instead of Jacky, having a story started of as a crazy maximalist movie evolve to a touching story of family and kindness. Having the most fitting cast of Ke Huy Quan playing a soft kind husband and also a awesome strong fighter. Having the movie held back during the devastating pandemic, after the world has gone through the confusing and depressing time. The movie finally served to us as a reminder and encouragement - Please be kind to each other, especially in this confusing time.

How this movie evolve creatively and organically from conception to birth is a miracle!

[elizabethgeoghegan]

I love the sound of Ke’s voice. Give this man more roles.

[dashanthonyflagg]

and all three of them won their nominations and received the oscar for their roles in the film. F-ing epic.
