2025 Golden Globes: Kathy Bates Rips Up Speech After Losing to ‘Shōgun's’ Anna Sawai
Kathy Bates’ reaction to her 2025 Golden Globes loss was filled with anything but misery.
After Shogun's Anna Sawai took home the award in the Best Actress in a Television Series—Drama category during the Jan. 5 show, the Matlock star didn’t see a need for her acceptance speech.
As Anna’s win was announced and she made it to the stage, the 76-year-old was captured clapping before staring down the camera and ripping up a piece of paper—which appeared to be her speech—and tossed it behind her.
It was all fun, as the Oscar-winning actress continued to gleefully clap while Anna made her way to the stage to accept her award. (Click here to see all the winners.)
Fellow nominee Keri Russell (The Diplomat) was also captured playfully reacting as if her name was called, while she could be seen clapping while mouthing the words, “Thank you, thank you,” before kissing the person sitting next to her. Emma D’Arcy, (House of the Dragon), Maya Erskine, (Mr. and Mrs. Smith), and Keira Knightley (Black Doves), also clapped for the 32-year-old actress as she accepted her first award.
And it's worth noting that Anna had Kathy on her mind as she took the stage and gave a special shout out to the Oscar-winning actress.
"I have so much people to thank but I'm gonna keep it short, thank you to the voters for voting for me even though,” Anna said. “I would vote for Kathy Bates any day.”
"Thank you to our incredible writers, without a good script, it's impossible to give a performance to our fullest, full potential,” she continued. “Thank you. Everyone else – I'm gonna thank you later."

However, Kathy wasn’t the only woman in the crowd to react to her loss. Sofia Vergara also had a moment after her loss to fellow nominee Jodie Foster, who took home the Best Actress in a Miniseries or Motion Picture—Television trophy for her role in True Detective: Night Country.
"No, no," Sofía said as she playfully stood up after Jodie's name was called by presenters Seth Rogen and Catherine O'Hara, to which Jodie responded from the stage, "I know, I know."
As this was Jodie's fifth Golden Globe win, Sofía could be heard yelling from the crowd, "Give me one!"
