Dakota Fanning's 2002 Award Speech: A Hilarious Relic

Dakota Fanning fondly recalls her 2002 Critics Choice Awards acceptance speech. At seven years old, she won Best Young Actor for her role in 'I Am Sam.'

Upon reaching the stage, Fanning was too short for the microphone. Presenter Orlando Bloom then famously picked her up to deliver her remarks, a moment that has become legendary.

Fanning recently described the speech as a "peak achievement" and a moment people frequently bring up. She humorously recounted hiding from a viewing of the video, noting Bloom's vigorous effort to hold her steady.

She also expressed amusement at the number of people she thanked, including God and her agents. Fanning revealed that she and Bloom still reenact the iconic moment whenever they encounter each other, finding it a shared, funny memory.
