Sean Hayes wins Tony Award and dedicates it to husband: ‘You Are My Purpose Every Single Day of My Life’
Sean Hayes now has a Tony Award to go along with his two Emmys.
Hayes won the award for lead actor in a play for his role as Oscar Levant in Good Night, Oscar and showed his husband Scott Icenogle as he accepted the prize.
“Oh my God, this has gotta be the first time an Oscar won a Tony. I’m shaking, I can’t believe — this is so surreal,” Hayes said. “First of all, my husband, Scotty — it’s Scotty, right? I can never get it right. You are my purpose, every single day of my life.”
“The cast and the crew, I love you guys so much, we get to laugh so hard backstage,” Hayes added. “Half of my performance I owe to Lisa Peters, the director, she’s phenomenal. And the other half to the greatest playwright ever, Doug Wright, I’m only standing here because of you, Doug, because of the words you wrote for me, for this part that you’ve created for me, It’s a life changer for me.”
