PORTUGUESE TRANSLATION

>> Esta é primeira indicação ao oscar para Mark Ronson, Andrew Rossomando e Andrew Wyatt, a primeira vitória e terceira nomeação para Lady Gaga, que também é indicada na categoria principal atriz.
>> Muito obrigada. Muito obrigada. À academia por essa honra maravilhosa, obrigada a todas as pessoas na sala, a Marc, Anthony, Andrew, meus co-escritores, eu os amo muito. Para minha irmã, minha alma gêmea, eu te amo. Minha família está aqui. Eu te amo, mamãe e papai. Bradley Não há uma única pessoa no planeta que poderia ter cantado essa música comigo além de você. Obrigado por acreditar em nós. Muito obrigado.
E se você está em casa e está sentado em seu sofá, e está assistindo isso agora, tudo que tenho a dizer é que isso é trabalho duro. Eu trabalhei duro por um longo tempo, e não é sobre, você sabe, não é sobre ganhar. Mas o que é sobre não é desistir. Se você tem um sonho, lute por isso. Há uma disciplina para paixão, e não é sobre quantas vezes você é rejeitado ou você cai, ou você apanha. É sobre quantas vezes você se levanta, é corajoso e continua. Obrigado.
