In a landmark achievement, Demi Moore secured her first acting award on Sunday, winning the Golden Globe for best actress in a musical or comedy film for her role in 'The Substance'. The body-horror film saw Moore outshine strong contenders like Amy Adams and Zendaya.

Moore, a veteran actress known for classics such as 'Ghost' and 'Indecent Proposal', expressed her astonishment and gratitude in her acceptance speech, revealing it as her first win in over 45 years of acting. She shared how being labeled a 'popcorn actress' early in her career had seeded doubts about her potential for recognition.

Given the script for 'The Substance' at a low point, Moore said the universe told her she wasn't finished yet. Her portrayal of an ageing fitness instructor in search of a perfect version of herself resonated deeply, marking a significant comeback and a poignant moment of recognition in Moore's storied career.
