Blake Lively delivered an empowering speech on girl power while accepting her People’s Choice Award.
The stunning actress took home the award for “Favourite Dramatic Movie Actress” for her role in The Shallows.
The 29-year-old began her speech with, “My mama, she always taught me as a kid that you can’t ever let anyone limit you.
“Don’t ever let anyone tell you there’s something you can’t do. And, yeah, it was pretty cool.”
She then continued, “Thank you for sending a message to Hollywood that people want to hear stories about women and we want to hear your stories, whether social media, your iPhone, whatever.
“Tell your stories, now more than ever. You need to be heard. You are valuable, and no one can limit you.”
The Hollywood star then thanked her husband Ryan Reynolds, and warned the crowd to back off. “You can’t have him, he’s mine.”
