Although Nick wasn't there to accept the award (and reenact the epic kiss) with his co-star, Keiynan took the stage in a fabulous gold ensemble and have the most amazing speech ever.
"First of all, I know Nick really wishes he could be here, because I know he would be so grateful for this moment," he said. "I just want to say to every kid, you can live your dreams and wear dresses."
He continued:
"You can live your dreams and kiss the one that you love, no matter what gender they are. You can live your dreams and believe in magic. You can be yourself. Thank you so much."
