Taylor Kinney took the stage at the People's Choice Awards in LA on Wednesday evening to accept the award for favorite dramatic TV actor for his role in Chicago Fire. During his acceptance speech, the 34-year-old actor thanked his fans for their ongoing support, as well as his mom, who was in the audience, saying, "Thanks for coming out, Mom. Love you!" Missing from the fun, though, was his fiancée, Lady Gaga [1], who Taylor also gave a sweet shoutout to before wrapping up, adding, "I love you, babe, and thank you for having my back and supporting me. You inspire me everyday."
