At the ungodly hour of 5:30am PST, Hollywood shuffled to their collective televisions to hear the the nominees for the 72nd annual Golden Globes. You can see the complete list here!
Almost immediately, everyone from Emma Stone to Eddie Redmayne put out statements about how excited they are to even be considered. You can read all the official reactions here!
However, a handful of nominees were rebels. Were they going to contain their delight to written statements most likely vetted by their people? No. Instead they quickly went off-script to show a sliver of personality on Twitter. Whether funny, or silly, or just shocked, these Golden Globe nominees have already won the award for self-deprecating gratitude.

Still buzzing from the @goldenglobes nomination for #Derek. It could well be the highlight of my career as the character means so much to me
