Moore tweeted a thank you to West after the ceremony, writing, "Stars have always sort of been our thing. Thankful to @shanewest for his kind words on this very special day, one which I will never forget. It was a walk (of fame) to remember."
Moore also thanked her personal team, friends, family and husband, singer Taylor Goldsmith, who were all in attendance.
