"I'm overwhelmed," she added about receiving the honor. "It comes at the end of the evening after you've had so much anxiety in which so many talented people go up there and accept things."
The moment was so exhilarating that Blanchett couldn't even remember what she said in her acceptance speech. She continued, "I had blanked it out. I can't even remember what I said or didn't say except that this is extraordinary."
The Oscar winner said she wanted to show the award to her children who were with her that night, explaining, "That's the first protocol."
"I better get name written on it though because they all look the same and someone might come and steal it!" she added.
