While accepting the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for his role in Dallas Buyers Club, Leto, 42, gave a touching thank-you to his mom. "In 1971, Bossier City, Louisiana, there was a teenage girl who was pregnant with her second child. She was a high school dropout and a single mom, but somehow she managed to make a better life for herself and her children. She encouraged her kids to be creative, to work hard and to do something special. That girl is my mother and she's here tonight," he said onstage. "And I just want to say, I love you, Mom. Thank you for teaching me to dream." |
