Ali Wong Gets a Congratulatory Kiss from Boyfriend Bill Hader After Golden Globe Win — and Thanks Her Ex

Ali Wong was up against Brie Larson, Elizabeth Olsen, Juno Temple, Rachel Weisz and Riley Keough at the 2024 Golden Globes for best actress in a limited series

At the 2024 Golden Globes, the nominees for best actress in a limited series, anthology series or a motion picture made for television delivered a slew of tour de force performances. But only one star could come out on top.

Beef star Ali Wong beat out Lessons in Chemistry lead Brie Larson, Love & Death actress Elizabeth Olsen, Fargo's Juno Temple, Dead Ringers' Rachel Weisz and Daisy Jones & The Six star Riley Keough for Sunday's prize.

Before making her way up to the stage to accept her award, Wong took a moment to embrace and kiss her boyfriend Bill Hader. In April 2023, PEOPLE confirmed that the pair had rekindled their romance, which followed her separation from husband Justin Hakuta.

Wong began her speech by praising her Netflix show family, saying, "I really need to thank Sunny so much for creating such a beautiful show and inviting me to be a part of it, and the friendship that I made with you and Steven [Yeun] and Jake [Schreier] and the rest of the cast and crew will always be the best thing that came out of Beef."

Wrapping things up, Wong also expressed gratitude to her former spouse. "I really need to thank the father of my children and my best friend, Justin, for all of your love and support. It's because of you that I'm able to be a working mother," she said.

In Beef, Wong walks a fine line between drama and comedy as Amy Lau, an entrepreneur who seemingly has it all: a thriving business about to be acquired for millions of dollars and a loving family, But after she's involved in a road rage incident with Steven Yeun's character, the pair find their lives unexpectedly and unrelentingly intertwined.

This is the first Golden Globe nomination for Wong, 41, who has received critical acclaim in the past for her Netflix standup specials, including the 2022 special Ali Wong: Don Wong.

Wong's fellow nominees are equally as impressive, including Daisy Jones & The Six's Keough.

Based on Taylor Jenkins Reid's best-selling novel of the same name, Prime Video's Daisy Jones & The Six details the rise and fall of a fictional '70s rock band — loosely inspired by Fleetwood Mac's own history — revolving around Keough's Daisy Jones and Sam Claflin's Billy Dunne. Structured like a documentary, Daisy Jones & The Six sees the band members reflecting on their glory days decades later.

Keough, 34, previously told PEOPLE that her mother Lisa Marie Presley and Presley's career was a source of inspiration for her performance, explaining she was "raised by somebody who did their own thing and didn't really care what other people thought."

This is Keough's second Golden Globes nomination, having previously received a nod in 2017 for her performance in the drama series The Girlfriend Experience.

In Lessons in Chemistry, Apple TV+'s adaptation of the New York Times bestselling debut novel from Bonnie Garmus, Larson, 34, plays Elizabeth Zott, a brilliant scientist in the early 1950s who reluctantly accepts a job as a TV cooking show host after being fired from her job in a lab, all while raising a child as a single mom and remaining focused on her dream of working as a chemist again.

Larson, who was an executive producer on the series, previously won a Golden Globe in 2016 for her portrayal of Ma in the drama thriller Room.

On Max's limited series based on a true crime, Love & Death, Olsen, 34, weaves the tale of Candy Montgomery, a 1980s housewife who gets caught up in an extramarital affair that turns deadly. As in, with an axe deadly.

"I love, love, love playing characters that make decisions that don’t make any sense to me or where I don’t quite understand how their decision-making led to that," Olsen told The Hollywood Reporter of taking the role. "There were really specific tonal references that excited me."

This is Olsen's second Golden Globes nomination, having previously earned a nod for her portrayal as the haunted, angst-ridden witch Wanda Maximoff in the Disney+ limited series WandaVision.

Based on the Coen brothers' revered 1996 classic, Fargo unfolds in the same universe as its predecessor, bringing forth new mysteries and characters each season. Season 5 — which takes place three years after the previous season — starts with the abduction of Temple's character Dot, a Minnesota housewife with a secret past.

Temple, 34, told Entertainment Weekly that she loves "how brave Dot is. ... I love that she keeps fighting. She doesn't stop… And I think that's something that I found very inspirational."

This is Temple's first Golden Globes nomination, although she previously received critical acclaim for her performance as Keeley Jones in Ted Lasso and her portrayal of Bettye McCartt in the Paramount+ miniseries The Offer.

In Dead Ringers, a dark remake of David Cronenberg's 1988 film, Weisz pulls double duty, playing identical twin sisters Beverly and Eliot Mantle. Weisz, who also executive produced the Prime Video series, said she had a surprising source of inspiration for the show.

"Sex and the City came up more than anything," Weisz, 53, told PEOPLE in April 2023. "I think all the writers would say that we're indebted to Sex and the City."

This marks Weisz's fourth Golden Globes nomination; she previously won in 2006 for The Constant Gardener.
