Demi Moore’s family were full of joy on Sunday evening (January 5) after the Blame It on Rio actress won a Golden Globe.

The 62-year-old's three daughters and her extended family had gathered together to watch the awards show, in which Demi was nominated in the Best Actress in a Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy category for her lead role in The Substance.

Demi won the award – her first major acting award in her over 45-year-long career – leading to a sweet celebration from her and Bruce Willis’ daughters Scout, Rumer and Tallulah who were watching from home.

Accepting her award at the Golden Globes, Demi said: “I really wasn’t expecting that. I’m just in shock right now.

“I’ve been doing this a long time, like over 45 years, and this is the first time I’ve ever won anything as an actor and I’m just so humbled and so grateful,” the Charlie’s Angels actress added.

Demi then told the story of how she once felt dismissed by the industry after a movie producer called her a “popcorn actress” around 30 years ago.

“At that time, I made that mean that this wasn’t something that I was allowed to have,” she admitted, gesturing to her award.

“I bought in and I believed that, and that corroded me over time to the point where I thought a few years ago that maybe this was it.”

Demi shared that her part in the body-horror film The Substance came to her while at this “low point” in her self-belief about her acting career.

“In those moments, when we don’t think we’re smart enough, or pretty enough, or skinny enough, or successful enough, or basically just not enough: I had a woman say to me, ‘Just know you will never be ‘enough’, but you can know the value of your worth if you just put down the measuring stick,’” she added, finishing her speech.

Demi’s daughter Scout added a sweet tribute to her mom on her Instagram story after posting the family’s reaction to Demi’s name being read out.

“I am so beyond proud, my entire body is buzzing,” Scout penned. “I am so overwhelmed with joy and pride and gratitude!”

“What a gift to witness you shine and be acknowledged not only for the incredible work you did in this film but in the multitude of staggeringly breathtaking work you entire Career [sic]. This is just the beginning,” Rumer penned on her social media.
