Lily Gladstone made history at the Golden Globes last Sunday by becoming the first person who identifies as indigenous to win the award for best performance by a female actor in a dramatic motion picture during the ceremony.

Gladstone achieved this historic win for her performance in the Martin Scorsese-directed drama “Killers of the Flower Moon,” where she shares the screen with Leonardo DiCaprio and Robert De Niro.

During her acceptance speech, Gladstone emphasized the historic significance of the win, stating, “This is a historic one. It doesn’t belong to just me. I’m holding it right now with all my beautiful sisters.”

She commenced her speech in the Blackfeet language, expressing gratitude to the Blackfeet Nation, describing it as the “Beautiful community, nation that raised me and encouraged me to keep going, keep doing this.”

Lily Gladstone thanked her mother, who attended the ceremony, acknowledging her efforts. She expressed, “My mom, even though she’s not Blackfeet, worked tirelessly to get our language into our classrooms, so I had a Blackfeet language teacher growing up.”

Gladstone expressed her appreciation for being able to speak “a little bit” of her language, highlighting the challenges faced by native actors in the industry. She mentioned that in the past, native actors would speak their lines in English, and then sound mixers would reverse them to simulate native languages on camera.

In her speech, Lily Gladstone also acknowledged the Osage Nation, the focus of “Flower Moon.” She dedicates the award to the kids who have “seen themselves represented in our stories told by ourselves in our own words, with tremendous allies and trust.”

Lily Gladstone, who grew up on the Blackfeet Reservation in northwestern Montana, lived on reservation land until the age of 11, as reported by The Guardian in 2017. Her tribal affiliations include Kainai, Amskapi Piikani, and Nimi’ipuu First Nations.

In “Killers of the Flower Moon,” Lily Gladstone portrays the character Mollie Burkhart, an Osage woman and the wife of Leonardo DiCaprio’s character, Ernest Burkhart. This achievement marks Gladstone’s first Golden Globe nomination and win.

The 2024 Golden Globe Awards showcased Hollywood’s prominent stars and delivered several memorable moments during the three-hour telecast. The event, held on January 7, featured notable wins for projects like “Oppenheimer,” “Succession,” and “Beef.” 

The red carpet also made a splash with standout looks, including Margot Robbie’s Superstar Barbie-inspired pink gown and Oprah Winfrey’s purple ensemble, creating a night filled with highs on and off the main stage.
