MJ Rodriguez celebrates becoming first transgender actor to win a Golden Globe

Rodriguez is the first trans actor to win a Golden Globe.

The actor was honored for her work in Pose, which ended in mid 2021. She won for her performance in a drama series.

Pose looks at the African-American and Latino ballroom scene in New York in the 1980s. Blanca is the founder of House Evangelista and a nurse who is involved in the fight against HIV/AIDS.

Rodriguez commented on the win, writing, "Oh my gosh, wow!" You are talking about a sickening birthday present.

She said that this will open the door for many more young talented individuals.

They will see that it's more than they could have imagined. They will see that a young Black Latina girl from Newark, New Jersey who had a dream, would change the minds of others. Love wins. The door is now open for my young gay babies.

Rodriguez was the first trans actor to be nominated in a major acting category, and she was nominated for an award for her performance. She didn't win the award.

The Golden Globes looked different this year. The lack of diversity in the Hollywood Foreign Press Association was highlighted by the Los Angeles Times last year. The awards were unable to get broadcasting partners and actors to participate in the event.

The event has been boycotted by the industry, but still continued, just without a red carpet or stars.
