Tonight, Morgan Freeman was presented with the Lifetime Achievement Award at the SAGs, which makes sense since everything he's ever done is perfect (honestly, Going in Style is highly underrated) and he's, you know, God!
His acceptance speech had a few cute moments, including an interruption from Rita Moreno, who introduced Freeman, who told him to lift his baseball cap—"Morgan, Morgan, lift up your hat. Lift it up. There you go, now we can see you!"—but the best bit was at the very end, when he decided to point out what's wrong with the Screen Actors Guild statue:
And all of you, this is beyond honor, this is a place in history. Oh, and one more thing.... I wasn't going to do this. I'm going to tell you what is wrong with this statue. It works from the back. From the front, it's gender specific. Maybe I started something.
Perfect.
