“The Bear” star Ebon Moss-Bachrach got a sweet message from Taylor Swift after he mentioned her in his speech at the 2024 Critics Choice Awards on Sunday.
The actor, 46, scored the accolade for best supporting actor in a comedy series for the Hulu show.
“I’ve gotta thank my two special scene partners this year, Olivia Colman and Taylor Swift,” Moss-Bachrach said in his acceptance speech.
The “Bad Reputation” singer, 34, then took to X on Monday to write “Congratulations!!” in response to his mention.
The actor’s shout-out referred to a Season 2 episode of “The Bear” that involves Moss-Bachrach’s character, Richie, trying to get Swift concert tickets for his daughter and ex-wife.
Later in the episode, Moss-Bachrach sings the Grammy winner’s hit “Love Story” while driving.
Colman, 49, appeared in the episode as Chef Terry, who shares an emotional scene with Moss-Bachrach’s character at one point.

In the “Girls” actor’s address to the Critics Choice attendees, he also spoke about how he approaches developing his character.
“This is such a privilege to play this part,” he said. “Really beautiful experience to take this man kind of from a tough place into the light. It’s not often you get to do that — to play joy. And it’s been a really wonderful, special, special experience for me.”
The comedy show won four awards during the ceremony on Jan. 14, with star Jeremy Allen White earning the best actor in a comedy series award and Ayo Edebiri winning best actress in a comedy series award. The show as a whole also earned the best comedy series statuette.
“The Bear” also came in hot a week prior at the 2024 Golden Globe Awards, where it had been nominated for five awards.

White, 32, and Edebiri, 28, both acquired golden statuettes for their work on the show.
As for Swift, she attended the 2024 Golden Globes on Jan. 7, where host Jo Koy seemingly mocked her.
The “Valentine’s Day” actress glared at the comedian, 52, when he quipped onstage: “The big difference between the Golden Globes and the NFL is that at the Golden Globes, we have fewer camera shots of Taylor Swift.”
Swift is currently dating football player Travis Kelce, and Koy’s joke referred to the numerous times the NFL’s cameras capture her watching the games.
