Helen Mirren had to force her husband to give her a kiss when she won the Best Actress Oscar.The 61-year-old actress won the award for her performance in “The Queen” but her director husband, Taylor Hackford, at first wouldn’t give her congratulatory kiss because he didn’t want to steal the limelight from her. 
Mirren said: “I had to force my husband to stand up and kiss me. At first he didn’t want to do it because he said, ‘It’s not my moment.’ But I told him it was his moment as well.”

The “The Calendar Girl” star - who has also won a Best Actress Golden Globe and Best Actress BAFTA for her role as Queen Elizabeth II - dedicated her Oscar to the real British monarch.
