When we heard she was going to be a Kennedy Center Honoree:

And when we actually saw the show:

When she went to London, for “The Iron Lady” Photocall and the whole “Phyllida, just yank it” happened:

When we got the “60 Minutes” interview:

When we saw the first pictures of her “Vogue” issue:

When she won the NYFC Award:

When we saw her on the London premiere of “TIL”:

When she finally got on the Ellen show again:

When she went on Jimmy Kimmel:

When she won the Golden Globe in the drama category after YEARS, and she got bleeped and got celebrities passing her glasses around:

When she got her 17th Oscar nomination:

When she won only her SECOND BAFTA, and the whole Cinderella moment happened:

When she won the Golden Bear at Berlinale and the streepers where there, and she put the little heart in her picture:

When the Oscars day finally arrived:

When she appeared on the red carpet, all gorgeous looking like an statuette herself:

During the show waiting for her category:

When she appeared on stage:

When her category came up and Colin started talking about the nominees:
