Jonathan Jackson Thanks God In His Daytime Emmy Acceptance Speech

Actor Jonathan Jackson, who has played Lucky Spencer (son of Luke and Laura!) on the soap General Hospital since he was a kid, won the Best Supporting Actor trophy at the Daytime Emmys on Saturday night. Although he won in the same category last year, Jonathan seemed giddy and excited. A devout Greek Orthodox Christian, he also took the opportunity to thank G-d in his acceptance speech. “First of all, I have to give glory and honor to the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit,” he said at the beginning of the speech. After getting in a few more traditional shoutouts (wife, kids, agent, costars, etc), he closed with “Thanks to all the monks on Mt. Athos who are consistently praying for the life of the world.”
