She started her speech by thanking her family and colleagues who have supported her on this important journey.
Wrapping up her speech, she couldn't hold back her emotions and exclaimed:
“Go Birds, f**k ICE and free Palestine,”standing by her beliefs. While the first two expressions were heard by the audience, the third was cut off on air.
Before being interrupted, Hannah thanked the creators of 'Hacks': Jen Statsky, Lucia Aniello, and Paul W. Downs.
“Thank you for changing my life in every possible way. Not just for giving me an amazing job but also for being my friends and family,”she noted, wiping away tears as she addressed her colleague Jean Smith.

Hannah, the daughter of SNL legend Laraine Newman, couldn’t contain her shock and joked about the awkward situation.
The award was presented to her by country stars Reba McEntire and Kimberly Schlapman, as well as Karen Fairchild from Little Big Town.
After her speech, the host of the evening, Nate Bargatze, joked, noting Hannah’s profanity:
“She also dropped an F-bomb. And I’m immediately going to set up a fine jar! I guess we can swear now,”said the comic.
Late Speech Fines
The host emphasized that any winner who goes over the allotted 45 seconds will have to pay a fine of one thousand dollars for each second. Hannah trimmed her speech, so the amount she planned to donate to charity decreased to $80,000.
The victory came as a result of strong competition, as Hannah competed against stars like Lisa Colon-Zayas for 'The Bear’, Katherine Hahn for 'The Studio’, Janelle James for 'Abbott Elementary’, Katherine O'Hara for 'The Studio’, Sheryl Lee Ralph for 'Abbott Elementary’ and Jessica Williams for 'Shrinking’.
