Macaulay Culkin holds back tears while remembering Catherine O’Hara at Emmys

Macaulay Culkin became emotional while remembering Catherine O'Hara at the 78th Primetime Emmy Awards. He was joined by his on-screen siblings Dan Levy and Annie Murphy to pay tribute to their on-screen mother.

Culkin recalled how Catherine O'Hara continued to show up for him decades after they starred together in the Home Alone movies, in 1990 and 1992. According to The Indian Express, he said, "She wasn't just a wife to Bo [Welch] and mother to Matthew and Luke. She was my mom. She was our mama, and by extension, she's all of our mama."

Culkin urged viewers to call their mothers and said, "This is the best that we can do for her tonight. We're showing up for her. She may have forgotten me - twice - but we will always remember her." The Indian Express reported that the tribute was part of the In Memoriam segment at the Emmy Awards, which honored several film and television personalities who passed away in the past year.
