Jacob Tremblay is dancing his way into our hearts. 

The 9-year-old award winner celebrated a successful night at his first Critics' Choice Awards with some seriously impressive moves. 

In a video shared on the Room actor's Instagram account, a pint-sized Tremblay flaunted some sharp dance stylings à la Michael Jackson to the tune of Bruno Mars' wildly popular "Uptown Funk."

Much like the fashionable pop star, Tremblay sported his own chic threads, including an adorable black suit and matching black patterned tie.

While he captured our attention with his dance floor performance, Tremblay melted our hearts earlier in the evening during his acceptance speech for the 2016 Best Young Actor/Actress Award. 

The well-spoken silver screen newcomer was gracious as he thanked "Team Room," including his co-star Brie Larson as well as his proud parents who were both sitting in the audience—it's clear they raised him well.  

"It must be a super hard role because of all the great actors in this category," Tremblay complimented his fellow nominees as he stood at the oversized podium. 

In a room filled with film veterans, the promising actor reminded everyone of their first successful years in the business.

"This is the best day of my life," he declared.
