Cate pointed out her nine-year-old son Roman, who was doing magic tricks for the audience, and said: 'You need to be grateful that it is I, and not Jasmine French, who is your mother.'
Lupita Nyong'o was astounded to win Best Supporting Actress over so many stars, and received a standing ovation.

She added: 'I'd like to dedicate this to my uncle who came to see me in every play and said, "You're good. But let's see what Hollywood thinks of you." He didn't live to see this day but I'm sure he's proud of me.'

He went on: 'Matthew most of all, I've got to do it baby. Alright, alright, alright, alright! I love you, thank you for bringing me out of retirement and giving me a chance.'
