“Are you kidding me? I have stage fright,” Hayek said while the attendees were laughing and clapping. “Come on, Michael. Come on, Michael.”

After that, the actor honored and dedicated his award to his nephew, who died from an overdose. “I’m the most fortunate person,” said Keaton in tears, while mentioning his sister, Pam, and nephew, Michael, who died in 2016.

The actor’s winning comes after his role in Hulu’s Dopesick, a mini-series that explores the epicenter of America’s struggle with opioid addiction. Keaton said in his speech that he is thankful to have a platform that can recount stories that can “improve someone’s life.”
