Demi Moore’s daughters are her biggest supporters as she wins first major acting award
Demi Moore’s family couldn’t be more proud of their award-winning mother.
The 62-year-old actress took home her first major acting award Jan. 5 when she won the Golden Globe for best performance by a female actor in a motion picture (musical or comedy).
Moore was nominated for the award after starring as Elisabeth Sparkle in the 2024 horror film “The Substance,” released Sept. 20.
It was a long time coming for the veteran actress, who has never won a major acting award despite being in the industry for four decades.
And her family’s reaction to the win tells you everything you need to know.
“SHE DID IT,” Moore’s daughter Scout LaRue Willis wrote in the caption of an Instagram video showing the family jumping and screaming as they watched the ceremony on TV.
“This is a huge win for EVERYONE,” Scout LaRue Willis added in a separate comment.
Moore’s other two daughters, Rumer Willis and Tallulah Willis, also commented under the video.
“GO MAMA GO. So so proud of you. Omg I love you so much. So well deserved,” Rumer Willis wrote.
“I love her so (expletive) much, I have no words,” Tallulah Willis added.
Moore shares all three of her daughters with fellow actor Bruce Willis, who won a Golden Globe for best actor in a television series (comedy or musical) in 1987.
Willis’s current wife, Emma Heming Willis, also took to Instagram to congratulate the mother of three.
“We are screaming over here!!! Congratulations @demimoore!!!!!” Heming Willis wrote on Instagram.
In her acceptance speech, Moore described herself as “humbled and so grateful” after waiting 45 years for this moment.
“Oh wow. I really wasn’t expecting that. I’m just in shock right now,” she said after accepting the award, per People.
“I’ve been doing this a long time — like, over 45 years — and this is the first time I’ve ever won anything as an actor,” she added.
She then recalled a memory from 30 years ago when a producer labeled her a “popcorn actress” who makes movies that earn lots of money, not awards.
“That corroded me over time, to the point where I thought a few years ago that maybe this was it. Maybe I was complete, maybe I’d done what I was supposed to do,” Moore continued.
But she wasn’t done — and she knew that the moment she read the script for “The Substance.”
“And so today, I celebrate this as a marker of my wholeness and of the love that is driving me and for the gift of doing something I love and being reminded that I do belong,” she continued.
In addition to the video of her family celebrating, Moore’s daughters each took to their own Instagram Stories to congratulate their mom for the win.
“What a gift to witness you shine and be acknowledged not only for the incredible work you did in this film but in the multitude of staggeringly breathtaking work your entire career,” Rumer Willis, 36, wrote — adding that this is “just the beginning.”
“This woman is my teacher, my guide, my friend,” Tallulah Willis, 30, wrote. “The world is seeing you as your family does, and I am beaming with pride.”
“I am so beyond proud, my entire body is buzzing. I am so overwhelmed with joy and pride and gratitude!!” Scout LaRue Willis wrote in her Stories.
The trio also posted photos of each other holding the award as they celebrated the night away. In one of the videos, Moore can be seen dancing in a room full of people.
Moore began her acting career in 1981 when she was cast as Corri in the dramatic movie “Choices.”
According to IMDb, she has 72 credits to her name as an actress — as well as nine credits as a producer and two credits as a director.
In addition to her role in “The Substance,” Moore also stars in the TV series “Landman” as Cami Miller, the wife of Jon Hamm’s character.
She’s also expected to star in the movie “I Love Boosters” alongside Keke Palmer, LaKeith Stanfield and Will Poulter — though not much is known about the film yet.
