Congrats are in order for Kaley Cuoco, who is now officially a Golden Globes nominee!

The Hollywood Foreign Press Association recently announced the full list of 2021 Golden Globe nominations, revealing that Cuoco is in the running for Best Actress (Musical or Comedy) for her role as Cassie on HBO's The Flight Attendant. The 35-year-old star shared videos of her emotional reaction to the news on Instagram and wrote, "Thank you @goldenglobes #hfpa I will never ever forget this moment and I can’t stop crying...so proud of my entire team @flightattendantonmax !!!!! YES NORMAN!"

In the first video clip, Cuoco bursts into tears after Sarah Jessica Parker announces her name as a nominee, and in the second, we see what appears to be her initial reaction, where she (understandably) freaks out after learning the news for the first time.

Thousands of users flooded Cuoco's comments with congratulatory messages, including fellow actors like Zooey Deschanel and her Big Bang Theory co-star, Jim Parsons, who wrote, "I can’t believe you captured this! Ha !!!! So fricking great congrats congrats and what a great video!!" Even the official account for The Flight Attendant chimed in and added, "Find us on a direct flight straight to CLOUD NINE."

In response, Cuoco said, "I'M TRULY READING EVERY SINGLE COMMENT! Thank you everyone for this love!!! My heart is bursting!!!!!"

This marks the first Golden Globes nomination for the actress, who also serves as co-producer for the HBO series. Talk about well-deserved!
