He did it!<\/p>\n
The Oscar for best male actor has just been announced and drum roll please…<\/p>\n
Rami Malek has won best actor for his role as Freddie Mercury in ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’.<\/p>\n
Malek is the son of immigrants from Egypt and is the first actor EVER of Egyptian origin to win an Oscar. AMAZING!<\/p>\n
\u201cI am the son of immigrants from Egypt, I\u2019m a first generation American…this is something I will treasure for the rest of my life.\u201d<\/p>\n
In his emotional speech he thanked everyone who helped him on his journey, “To the people who took a chance on me every step of the way… I may not have been the obvious choice, but I guess it worked out”.<\/p>\n
\nThank you to the Academy for recognizing the work of so many from the cast and crew who made all of this possible. I have absolutely treasured playing Freddie Mercury and I am so profoundly humbled and thrilled to honor him this way.<\/p>\n

Congratulations!<\/h4>\n<\/p>\n
