No one was prouder of Jordan Peele's Oscar win than Keegan-Michael Key
Find yourself a friend who loves you this much.
Jordan Peele had a historic moment last night when he won the Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay for his debut solo film, Get Out.
He became the first African-American screenwriter to win this category—and no one was prouder of him than his old Key and Peele partner, Keegan-Michael Key.
Key and Peele were the creators of the aptly titled sketch comedy series that ran on Comedy Central for five seasons, from 2012 to 2015.

The two have been performing together since 2003, when they were both cast on Mad TV, and their partnership blossomed into a touching friendship.
