James Marsden's Mom's Text Message To Him Is Going Viral

I'm also impressed she stayed up that late. I was out by 9.

James Marsden was nominated for Best Supporting Male Actor — Television at the Golden Globes this past weekend for, well, playing himself.

James starred as James Marsden in the *wickedly* funny Jury Duty.

In case you didn't know, Jury Duty is a reality TV show about a fake trial with a mostly fake jury. The thing is, there's one unsuspecting man completely unaware that the whole thing isn't real. James plays himself in the show as a member of the jury.

While it would have been hilarious for someone to win an award for playing themselves, James unfortunately lost to Matthew Macfadyen from Succession.

Now, James is going viral for sharing the text his mom sent him at the end of the night.

If you can't read it, it says: "My favorite moment of tonight was when they had your picture up with the other 5 nominees. Just like I've seen all my life of different nominee pics all together like that. And I saying to myself — my son is one of the 6 chosen and there he is up there on the tv screen next to the other nominees. MY son did that. I can't quit smiling. <3"

As millennials loved to say 12 years ago, "Is somebody choppin' onions in here, or is it just me?!!"
