JEFF BRIDGES: And the Golden Globe goes to - Natalie Portman, Black Swan!

NATALIE PORTMAN: Wow. Jeff Bridges I love you, thank you.

Thank you to the HFPA, this is such a great honor. Um, truly the most wonderful experience of this whole reaction to the movie has been to get to spend time with so many of the people in this room. It has been the most meaningful thing that I will take away from this post-movie experience.

I also want to thank you for the opportunity to say hi to my grandma Bernice in Cincinnati who's watching at home. I hope you're having a drink grandma, enjoying this. I thank you for bringing my Mom into the world - my Mom is the most wonderful person; she's here. And my father is also the most wonderful person - thank you for bringing me into this world and giving me such a wonderful life. And thank you to Benjamin who is helping me continue this creation of creating more life. Benjamin choreographed the film, and also you might remember him in the movie as the guy when they ask 'would you sleep with that girl' and he's like 'psh, no' - he's the best actor, it's not true, he totally wants to sleep with me!

Eileen Kashishen, my manager since I was 12 years old - you listened to me when I said to you 'I want to do something with dance one day; I admire the arts so much'; thank you so much, my agents Kevin Aura, John, Rowena. My fellow actors - Mila "Sweet Lips" Kunez - you're the greatest. Vincent Kazel, Barbara Hershey, and everyone at Fox Searchlight, mainly Nancy Ellie; thank you so much.

And Darren, I met you 10 years ago when we talked about this for the first time, and thank you for continuing to work on this movie, and then to give me such a beautiful, beautiful gift with this role. Every time we finished our takes you would say 'now do this one for yourself', and that gave me such beautiful inspiration as an actor to not just be a muse - that I could create on my own as well. I love you so much and you are the most wonderful and I'm so grateful to you - thank you.
