Joey Kingdid not leave Sunday night’sGolden Globe Awardsunscathed thanks to herThe Act costarPatricia Arquette.
“Patricia Arquette accidentally hit me in the head with her Golden Globe,” King wrote. “That sentence will give me bragging rights for the rest of my life. @PattyArquette.”
“What happens in the elevator stays in the elevator! No seriously I’m so sorry sweetest one!,” Arquette wrote.
The injury occurred during anInStylevideo shoot in an elevator. In the video, Arquette held her prized trophy while wearing a viking helmet as King stood beside her and showered the elevator floor with dollar bills while wearing a black top hat.
As the elevator door slowly closed, King bowed her head just as Arquette was raising the trophy in the air, causing the two to collide at the very end of the video.
Season 1 ofThe Acttells the real life story of Gypsy Rose Blanchard (King), the young Missouri woman who murdered her abusive mother Dee Dee (Arquette), who had manipulated her into portraying herself as terminally ill for almost her whole life.
When accepting her trophy, Arquettepointed outthat in years to come, the awards likely won’t be remembered as well as the world’s current events, including theraging fires in Australiaand theUnited States’ political climate.
“I’m so grateful to be here and celebrate this,” the actress said from the stage. “But I know tonight, Jan. 5, 2020, we’re not going to look back at this night, in the history books.”

“We’ll see a country on the brink of war. The United States of America, a president tweeting out a threat of 52 bombs, including cultural sites,” she continued. “Young people, risking their lives, traveling across the world. People not knowing if bombs will drop on their kids’ heads.”
“And the continent of Australia on fire,” she added. “So while I love my kids so much, I beg of us all to give them a better world. For our kids and their kids, we have to vote in 2020, and we have to get, beg and plead for everyone we know to vote in 2020. Thank you.”
The victory was Arquette’s third Golden Globe award overall, but her first in that category.
