Rhea Seehorn had a remarkable evening at the 2026 Golden Globes, winning Best Actress in a Drama Series for her performance as Carol Sturka in the Apple TV+ show, Pluribus.
Carol stands out as one of the few people who doesn’t seem to fall for the overly cheerful atmosphere that everyone else in the show pretends to enjoy.
In her acceptance speech, Seehorn quipped that her notes told her to “Get a prescription for beta blockers,” but she hadn’t followed that advice. She apologized, explaining she was just a bit surprised and trying to collect her thoughts.
She charmed the audience by playfully admitting she was a bit stunned by the victory. It was a tough category, going up against strong contenders like Kathy Bates (Matlock), Helen Mirren (MobLand), Keri Russell (The Diplomat), Britt Lower (Severance), and Bella Ramsey (The Last of Us).
Why mention beta blockers? The Cleveland Clinic explains these prescription drugs work by slowing down your heart and relaxing your blood vessels.
These medications are typically prescribed for heart conditions, high blood pressure, and other health issues. However, people sometimes use them to help with anxiety, especially when performing. It’s well-known that celebrities use them to manage nerves before going on stage or giving speeches, which is why Seehorn’s joke really resonates with anyone who’s ever felt anxious about public speaking.
Actress Seehorn has been receiving a lot of positive attention for her work on Pluribus. She recently won a Critics Choice Award for Best Actress in a Drama Series. Describing the show as a complex mystery, Seehorn explained that even she doesn’t have all the answers. She said her character, Carol, is intelligent and tries her best to figure things out as the story unfolds, but she was content letting the plot unfold without needing to know everything herself.
You can now watch Pluribus on Apple TV! Seehorn delivers an award-winning performance as Carol, a clever and determined character who skillfully handles a seemingly perfect world.
