Jennifer Coolidge's ICONIC Golden Globes speech.

Jennifer Coolidge won her first Golden Globe in January 2023, thanks to her role as Tanya.

"There are about five people in this room who kept me going for 20 years with these little jobs," she said in her acceptance speech. 

"I didn't know anybody, and it was this thing of going nowhere. American Pie, I milked that to the bone."

For a lot of the actress' speech, she thanked the show's creator Mike White. 

There wasn't a dry eye in sight.

"I had such big dreams and expectations as a younger person, but what happened is that they get sort of fizzled by life, I thought I was going to be Queen of Monaco. Then you get older and realise it's not happening," she said.

"But Mike White, you have given me hope. You have given me a new beginning. 

"You changed my life in a million different ways, now my neighbours are speaking to me - I was never invited to one party on my hill, and now everyone is inviting me!"

Her speech is arguably one of the most iconic of 2023 (and we're only in March!).

There's been some reported romances.

Last year, reports emerged that The White Lotus team had *plenty* of fun while filming in Italy.

A source told gossip Instagram account, Deuxmoi, that Meghann Fahy (who played Daphne) and Leo Woodall (who played British bad boy Jack) even became romantically involved.

The pair reportedly hit it off during filming and had a fling. 

"Meghann even went on vacation with Leo after filming ended," the source said. 

"Meghann and Leo 1000 per cent. Tonnes of witnesses. Not a whole lot of secrecy behind this pairing. They got together in real life and were super cute on set."

"Not sure if they're still together or if it was just a fling," they added.

Fahy and Woodall recently appeared at the SAG Awards together, fueling rumours they're still dating.

The actors posed for photos on the red carpet, before being joined by their co-star, Theo James.

An on-stage reaction from Aubrey Plaza has gone viral. 

Aubrey Plaza has been dominating since The White Lotus finale. 

She recently appeared on Saturday Night Live and attended the SAG Awards with her co-stars. 

At the award show, Plaza wore a sequin dress, featuring plenty of cut-outs. 

When on-stage, accepting an award with the rest of the cast, Plaza looked visibly annoyed. Fans assumed that was because the dress was causing her discomfort.

A video of the moment has since gone viral.

In it, actor Jon Gries grabs Plaza's arm and whispers in her ear. He seemingly tells Plaza about a possible wardrobe malfunction.

Plaza then makes a panicked face and promptly fixes her dress. Some suggest she mouths "Jesus Christ" and "s**t's f***ed". 

People have since come to the actress' defence, saying the underboob look with the dress was intentional.

Simona Tabasco and Beatrice Grannò, aka Lucia and Mia, are still best friends.

For those who watched The White Lotus finale, seeing Lucia and Mia walk off down the cobblestoned streets of Italy together was one of the best parts.

And for the actors themselves, Beatrice Grannò (Mia) and Simona Tabasco (Lucia), their on-screen chemistry extends off-screen.

The pair have over a decade of experiencing acting together, and also real-life best friends.

Since the show, the pair have starred in Skims' Valentine's Day campaign - with Kim Kardashian being a massive fan of their characters on The White Lotus.

"We definitely brought our friendship to the screen," Tabasco told Variety

"The joy for the thing that we were sharing, I think that's what you saw on-screen and was delivered in the end."
