Paul Giamatti got to the meat of the matter Sunday after winning the Critics Choice best actor award for “The Holdovers.”
“Wow, guys, I didn’t think my week could get any better than going viral for eating a cheeseburger,” Giamatti cracked, in reference to his fast-food moment that roused the internet recently.
The “Sideways” star, still in his tuxedo, was photographed at an In-N-Out Burger last week right after winning a Golden Globe in a similar category.
“Serious guys, I need that endorsement,” he continued at the Critics Choice gathering. “So let’s all just pray for me.”
Giamatti joked to reporters afterward that he was going to dine at In-N-Out again after the Critics Choice ceremony, but that he’d be “staying in the car” this time.
Giamatti has a way of grabbing attention with his fast-food adventures.
In 2021, he told “Late Show” host Stephen Colbert that he once received what he thought was a “Burger King for Life” card after doing a commercial for the chain. He said he was beside himself with joy.
But when he typed in the serial number on the card, it was revealed to be merely a $100 certificate.
