Chrissy Metz learned about her Golden Globe nomination in the cutest way possible.
The This Is Us star earned her second nom in two years for her performance as Kate Pearson, and Et’s Leanne Aguilera was on the set of NBC’s hit family drama on Monday morning to celebrate Metz’s latest achievement.
Turns out, the 37-year-old actress preemptively discovered she was nominated before they were even announced. As Metz recalls, her boyfriend, Josh Stancil, dropped by her house moments before because he had a gut instinct that her name was going to be called.
“Josh called me [this morning]. He was like, ‘I’m coming over!’ I’m like, ‘Ugh, this is presumptuous, it’s not gonna happen, Josh.’ He’s like, ‘That’s not true. You always tell me you have to manifest what you want,’” Metz said. “He came over in his pajamas. I open up my laptop and then of course, [presenter] Garrett [Hedlund] was like, ‘Chrissy Metz...

Chrissy Metz admits that the struggle was very real for her before landing her beloved role on This Is Us.
The 36-year-old actress tells the March issue of Glamour magazine that she almost gave up acting entirely before she got the call about playing the character of Kate on the hit NBC drama.
“In 2014 American Horror Story came up. I’d wanted the role of Ima [Barbara] Wiggles desperately, and after I got it, I thought, 'Ok, awesome, this is a jumping board for my career!' But when it wrapped, there was…nothing," she recalls. "I almost moved back to Florida, but my mom said, ‘You can either be miserable here and not pursue your dreams, or you can be miserable in L.A. and at least pursue what you want.’ So I stayed."
