From US Weekly:

Mo’Nique may not have prepared her speech, but when she won Best Supporting Actress in a Drama for her role in Precious: Based on the Novel Push by Sapphire, she didn’t have a hard time making a statement.

“Everybody kept asking me do I know my speech, and I said, ‘No, I don’t know what I’m going to say because I don’t want people to think I just know I done won something,’ so no, I don’t know!” the 42-year-old star joked.

“I celebrate this award with all the Preciouses, with all the Marys — I celebrate this award with every person that’s ever been touched,” she said. “It’s now time to tell. And it’s okay.”
