And as soon as possible. You’re going to love the movie and especially Fernanda. It’s THAT good.

Glenn Close did not shade Gwyneth. It’s only half a clip of what she was saying about “how performances are awarded at the Oscars” especially when they have sole nominations or stuff like that. She said winning an Oscar depends on several other things and not just the performance. It was not shade.

If it was not shade, it was certainly a strange example to use. She did say “it didn’t make any sense”.

FYC: Vanessa Kirby - Pieces of a Woman

So what if it was shade. She’s never been more right.

Gwyneth’s win is already trashed by the media and even the Industry, so I wouldn’t give much attention to this. Also, people on social seem to be even more Team Glenn after her support towards Fernanda.

People from the Industry have said far worse things towards each other than this.

I am embarrassed to say that for YEARS, I only knew of Gwyneth Paltrow as a brand. I knew she was massively famous and what she looked like and what films she had been in etc, but I’d never watched any of her work. I had heard a lot of people say she’s out of touch with reality and crazy and only had a Hollywood career due to nepotism and never deserved her accolades…

In the past few years, I’ve seen several of her movies and I really dont understand why she has such a negative reputation as an actor. I think she is actually great and has an undeniable star presence and charisma. I couldn’t get into The Politician at all, but Paltrow was my favourite part (and Lange).

I wonder if people judge her due to how openly she states she doesn’t really care about acting or working. I love that about her. She doesn’t take herself seriously as a performer and lets natural talent do the talking.

Also, I’ve watched interviews with her and she seems really nice and engaging. She is not willing to pretend to be a lower class working girl who is struggling to pay the rent; she’s a wealthy business women and happy with that. I respect her hustle and lack of pretense.

Montenegro wasn’t even nominated at SAG so her chances of a win were very slim.

She was a solid 3rd place. So many performances won without SAG nominations. And we know SAG are not much fans of Foreign Language Films, they snub ’em all the time.

It's about the chaotic editing in Moulin Rouge!

Wow, some of you take this celebrity stuff…very seriously!

I promise that Glenn and Gwyneth will never know that you personally defended their honor online. They’re all bad people anyway lol.

By the way, Fernanda thanked Glenn on her instagram earlier today.

LMAO! It’s so great that someone as big as Close acknowledges that Montenegro, not Blanchett, was the most deserving of 1998’s line-up.
