The Bohemian Rhapsody costars did not hold back with sharing their PDA before Malek, 37, took to the stage to accept the trophy for his role as Freddie Mercury in the Queen biopic.

“My mom is in here somewhere. Oh, I love you. I love you, lady. My family, thank you for all of this. You know, my dad didn’t get to see me do any of this. But I think he’s looking down on me right now,” Malek began. “Thank you, Queen. Thank you … for allowing me to be the tiniest part of your phenomenal, extraordinary legacy. I am forever in your debt. My crew and my cast, I love you. You are my equals, my betters. I could have never been here without you.”

“She’s such a wildly talented human being and an inspiration,” Malek told Us on January 9. “I have to say that goes for the entire cast.”

Bohemian Rhapsody also won Best Sound Missing, Best Film Editing, Best Sound Editing and was nominated for Best Picture on Sunday night.
