So I decided to research jaibhim gate. So the movie was eligible for the nominations (along with 260 other movies). By eligible, it basically means that it fulfils the criteria of a being a full length movie released within the stipulated period. Now the filmmakers of jaibhim and the Indian media have incorrectly stated that it was shortlisted and thus millions of Indians are spamming YouTube with jaibhim comments convinced there’s an actual chance the movie will be nominated…and that completes my tedtalk for today
February 7, 2022 at 7:50 am #1204782016I’ve added House of Gucci to my top 10 predictions. Only because I feel so many people watched it (and enjoyed it) and divisive is a good thing as the people who liked it will vote as it’s memorable. I think BTR is making to 10 too. Be prepared for shock omissions.
February 7, 2022 at 4:29 am #1204781591Today its the paris critics awards I think only gaga cruz and renate are nominated
Watch Valerie winning it for Aline.
February 6, 2022 at 7:05 pm #1204781059Why are some film twitteratis speculating that Gaga did not make top 2 at BAFTAs and was actually a jury pic and thus not popular. That makes zero sense, the jury is there to pick out new, unknown, possibly British, minorities. Lady Gaga, one of the biggest stars on planet earth is none of these things. There’s absolutely no chance that she was a jury pick.

ReplyFebruary 5, 2022 at 12:10 am #1204776015I find it hilarious that people are still saying Gaga could miss. Yes she could and the Pope hypothetically could become an exotic dancer. Both possible but highly unlikely. She’s got the momentum to win not just get nominated so maybe we should discuss who number 2 is instead of hypothesising her not getting nominated.
February 3, 2022 at 12:50 pm #1204771780Yeah but it was also known that Amazon and Nicole was the only major studio to make exclusive HFPA screenings and interviews while quietly embracing them back. It was a good strategy and the win gave her visibility but it was not this shocker people think it is. Specially when it was said that the GG win wouldn’t matter this year BECAUSE they lost most of their prestige. And she had AACTA on lock before nominations were announced. This is not to say Nicole is a weak contender, on the contrary. Her acclaim and campaign are enormous to make her a top 3 contender on the possibility for the win, besides her film is doing well with key guilds and Amazon is relentless in their promotion. What I’m pointing out is that her frontrunner status was just one product of “moving the goal post” as you were calling out earlier for other contenders.
You also have to realise that considering the kind of person Gaga is there’s zero chance she would have acknowledged the win and probably would have said something about not accepting a GG till “ changes are made” or something. I’m not saying Nicole didn’t beat her fair and square but Amazon and Nicole really wanted that win while Gaga did not even acknowledge the nomination.
February 3, 2022 at 12:42 pm #1204771742Unless Gaga wins every award moving forward, is not knighted by the Queen and is unable to do a handstand, she has no chance of winning the Oscar. The others can miss nominations but will beat her if she doesn’t achieve the aforementioned.
February 3, 2022 at 6:48 am #1204769873It’s not going to be Kidman. There’s just too many international voters that really don’t care about Lucille Ball. There really is no challenger to Gaga at this stage (things could and have changed quickly), but when I read that more people voted at the Oscars this year than ever before, that has to bode well for Gaga and Gucci. Like what could cause this voter enthusiasm except for a widely watched movie starring one of the biggest stars in the world. Bookmark me, Gucci’s getting nommed for Best Picture too.
January 19, 2022 at 5:29 am #1204737927How are Beyonce’s achievements overrated? If we are just talking about awards….as we all know she’s won nearly 30 Grammys and counting (the most for any female artist of all time) and has been nominated almost 80 times. That is a fact….not an opinion. What was the last original album by Gaga that made as big an impact on the culture as Lemonade which was not THAT long ago….? And it wasn’t A Star is Born soundtrack. By the time Gaga arrived on the scene, Beyonce was already an icon…and continues to be so. There is not a current music star in the world who’s name is bigger than Beyonce’s. Beyonce is your favorite popstar’s favorite popstar….. (example being Adele stanning out over Beyonce during HER own Album of the Year speech) For the record I didn’t say Beyonce was a big as Michael. No one is, but she is the CLOSEST to his overall stature.
Shallow is one of the biggest hits in recent years. Beyoncé’s last hit was maybe a decade ago. Anyone nominated in rnb get way more nominations and wins. Which is why JayZ has innumerable wins. The real GOAT for Grammies are not either Gaga or Beyoncé but Adele and Taylor.
Back to acting. It’s either Nicole or Gaga. I can’t see anyone else except maybe Colman.
January 19, 2022 at 1:26 am #1204737658Don’t want to partake in the non acting debates but here I go:
Cher was never as big a pop star as Gaga was/is
Gaga has never reached the popstar heights that Madonna reached but is way more respected
Beyonces achievements are widely overrated. She hasn’t had a hit song in years and has had a few flop side projects. She’s extremely talented and music wise is comparable to Gaga but overall Gaga is the more current star. The MJ comparisons are delusional. No one, not even Madonna ever came close to MJ.
January 15, 2022 at 11:57 pm #1204731044They don’t know which stupid excuse using anymore, didn’t know Olivia Colman was popular with TikTokers as well 🤣
My favourite is the insider quote from someone who said people voted for Jared Leto because TikTokers like his music. Jared Leto is not even popular with Gen Z due the allegations he has against him and I doubt TikTokers or anyone below 40 have even listened to 30 seconds to Mars.
January 15, 2022 at 11:44 pm #1204731036So I’m so confused by this whole apparent TikTokers SAG scandal. It makes no sense to me. I can understand if Gaga just snuck in and hadn’t done well in the other awards. But based on the evidence it’s quite clear that she’s one of the front runners along with Kidman. She didn’t take away Stewart’s votes because of TikTokers, she’s probably the top 2 at SAG. Gaga just won Iowa that has correctly predicted the winner the last few years. She won New York, one of the trifectas and has been nominated consistently everywhere. Stewart not doing well has nothing to do with Gaga and I don’t understand where this theory has arisen that Stewart’s downfall is directly related to Gaga. For all you know Hudson, playing another beloved person, could be the person dividing the votes.
January 12, 2022 at 10:44 pm #1204723659Wait, House of Gucci is heading towards a $200million gross. When did that happen? This would have grossed 400 million + in a non pandemic.
I’d say Gaga’s box office pull, at least for now is something even Leo DiCaprio doesn’t have.
