Prior to his Sunday win, "they both started taking turns plucking my hair, and it was really painful," Culkin said in his speech as the crowd laughed. "And now, I'm here talking about it instead of saying what I had prepared to say, which is gone now. And I'm probably out of time."

Back in October 2021, Braun told The New York Times that he is "fascinated by romance and courting another human" because "I haven’t really been in a long-term relationship ever" in real life.

"I do yearn for it and yet I’m incapable of it," the Cat Person actor said at the time. "I go toward it and then I hit a wall where I’m like, 'I can’t go farther into this. I’ve got to exit.' "

He added, "I do believe it’ll happen at the right time with the right person. Until then, it’s fun to meet people and see what works."

Succession's awards season spotlight continues Monday, as Braun is among the show's nominees at the 2023 Emmy Awards. He's up for outstanding supporting actor in a drama series for his performance as Cousin Greg.
