The ceremony traditionally opens with monologues from several of the assembled stars, who tell stories about their time in their profession and then close by stating their names and saying: 'I am an actor.'
Fox, 64 - who has - got such a massive round of applause when the camera alighted on him that he had to pause the start of his speech.
He proceeded to tell a story about how his acting career resulted in his introduction to his wife and Family Ties co-star Tracy Pollan, with whom he has four children.
The Back to the Future legend then pointed to his son Sam, 36, who was seated next to him, and quipped: 'By the way, he's not an actor, he's just my date.'
He added a heartwarming extra few words to the traditional closer of the monologue, saying: 'I'm Michael J. Fox and a dad, and I'm an actor.'

Fox began his speech: 'Before I left school....,' then had to trail off briefly in order to let his thunderous ovation die down before continuing.
'Before I left school and moved from Canada to LA to try and make it as an actor, a teacher of mine told me: "Fox, you're not gonna be cute forever." I didn't know what to say to that so I said: "Maybe just long enough, sir,"' he said to a laugh.
