25-year-old Anora star Mikey Madison won the Best Actress award during the penultimate presentation at this year's Academy Awards.

Madison delivered a classy acceptance speech, honoring her sensational lead performance in Anora. While Demi Moore was the anticipated favorite for her comeback in The Substance, Madison's BAFTA Best Actress win in February foreshadowed her success with the Academy.

With this win, Madison joins a proud legacy of Best Actress winners who received the Oscar early in their careers. Amid a night filled with expected outcomes, her victory was a delightful shock for many.
