Zach then turned sentimental and shared a photo of himself as an awkward teen before sharing a message with fans and viewers that they’re all “drama nerds” and that anyone could end up at that stage one day.

“I was the spazziest, drama nerd there ever was, and I still kind of am!” Zach shared. “Everyone in this room kind of is because behind all the fame and fortune and followers and glam squads are a bunch of nerdy artists and entertainers, and they’re the ones that make all the cool s–t that we’re celebrating tonight.”
