Lady Gaga's acceptance speech - 

“If you are at home and sitting on your couch watching this right now, all I have to say is this is hard work,” she added. “I have worked hard for a long time, and it is not about winning, but it’s about not giving up. If you have a dream, fight for it. There’s a discipline for passion, and it’s not about how many times you get rejected or you fall down or beaten up, it’s about how many times you stand up and are brave. Thank you.” On the same, even Mark Ronson took the mic and added, “She acts, she writes, she sings the songs. Lady Gaga, we salute you for this.”

This is Lady Gaga's first appearance after the reports of her calling off the engagement with fiance Christian Carino was officially announced. The emotional actress had a cute moment at the Oscars with Olivia Coleman after The Favourite actress took home the Best Actress trophy.
