One person blamed their tears on "allergies."

“Oh my gosh, my allergies are so bad today,” I say while trying to hide the fact that I’m sobbing over this sweet girl’s speech. One of my fav performances this year—-well deserved! #BrooklynnPrince https://t.co/pA8a6chJwB

Some are even calling for another big win for the 7-year-old: an Oscar.

"This is such a big honor, all the nominees are great. You guys are awesome, we should go and get ice cream after this!" Prince began her acceptance speech. "God, I would like to thank you for this wonderful opportunity, and I would like to thank [director] Sean [Baker] for giving me this wonderful opportunity to be his Moonee."

"I would like to dedicate this award to all the Halleys and Moonees out there," she continued, shining a light on the reality of poverty, an issue at the center of the drama. "Guys, this is a real problem. You need to go out there and help. Thank you so much."

In The Florida Project, Prince portrayed 6-year-old Moonee, a girl living with her mother in a low-rent motel down the road from every girl's dream palace: Disney World. Despite her family's situation, Moonee makes the most of her adventures, running around the motel with friends and eating free ice cream.

The Florida Project, an indie film, had a limited theater release last October.
