Temple was talking about her nomination when she said, “I’m still digesting it, for sure but I think, truly it’s just an honour, it’s something that I did not expect to happen and something that I’m so excited by and so encouraged by, because I really wanna do this for the rest of my life.”
She added, “I absolutely love what I do and it’s just nice to know that I’m kind of taking the right path right now you know and it’s so lovely to have an award like this that is encouraging young actors to keep doing what they wanna do and I just think that’s really inspiring and I think all of us are fighting for what we wanna do and we have the passion to do it and yeah, it’s such an honour to be here.”
