Selma Blair’s 2022 People’s Choice Awards Speech Didn’t Leave a Dry Eye in the House – E! Online

There was nothing cruel about these intentions. 

Dancing With the Stars‘ Selma Blair accepted the award for The Competition Contestant of 2022 at the People’s Choice Awards on Dec. 6 at the Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, Calif., and gave an emotional speech highlighting her journey with multiple sclerosis, which she was diagnosed with in 2018.

“This is kind of a huge deal for me,” Selma said, while holding a cane and wearing a gorgeous black minidress. “I have been in this town a long time. I have so many amazing friends that win things like this. This feels so amazing and I can’t believe the people gave me something after giving me so much the last few years of learning how to connect and to feel supported by people. It means so much.”
