Jamie Lee Curtis announced that she’s referring to her new Oscars trophy as “they/them” in honor of her 27-year-old child, who identifies as transgender.
The actress recently nabbed the Best Supporting Actress Academy Award for her role in “Everything Everywhere All At Once.” Curtis appeared on “Today” and was asked by host Savannah Guthrie if she had named her golden statue.
“I’m in support of my daughter Ruby. I’m having them be a they/them,” Curtis said while getting emotional, per Variety. “I’m going to just call them ‘them.’ They/them, and they are doing great, they’re settling in, and I just, in my life, I never saw it in a million years that I’d have this couple days, and I’m very moved by the whole thing.”
