Kristen Stewart fans were left disappointed as the Spencer star lost the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress to Nicole Kidman. The latter won the title for playing the role of Lucille Ball in Aaron Sorkin’s biographical film Being the Ricardos.
Meanwhile, Stewart earned the nomination for her portrayal of Princess Diana in Pablo Larrain’s psychological drama Spencer. While this was the former’s first nomination in the category, the latest award marks Kidman’s sixth Golden Globe Best Actress win.
Kidman also edged out Lady Gaga for House of Gucci, Olivia Coleman for The Lost Daughter and Jessica Chastain for The Eyes of Tammy Faye in the latest honor. However, the Batman Forever actress was not present to receive her award in-person due to the ongoing boycott of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association.
Twitter slams Kristen Stewart’s Golden Globe snub
Kristen Stewart was highly praised for her convincing performance of Princess Diana in Pablo Larrain’s Spencer. The actress previously told the BBC that she spent months studying the late royal’s mannerisms and habits, from her “breathing pattern” to her “infectious laugh”:
"I read everything, I wanted every photo... watched all the interviews that I could get my hands on. I watched The Crown, I watched every iteration of interpretation. I just tried to absorb her in an emotional and general way, and then trust the process, and expect her to show up."
The film reportedly received a three-minute standing ovation at its world premiere and the Charlie’s Angels star earned significant appreciation from critics and viewers alike.
Stewart fans considered her a strong contender for the 2022 Golden Globe Award but were left upset when Nicole Kidman bagged the Best Actress title. While many acknowledged Kidman’s onscreen expertise, they believed Stewart was a more deserving candidate for the award.
Several fans took to Twitter to share their reaction to the situation:
As reactions continue to pour in online, it remains to be seen if Stewart will respond to the Golden Globe snub. However, the actress previously gave an indifferent reaction to award nominations while speaking to Variety about a possible Oscar selection:
“I don’t give a sh*t. The Oscars are such a funny thing. There are so many incredible movies and performances that barely get seen. It definitely says something about where we’re at as a cumulative presence — what we’re looking at, what we care about. I really appreciate that something that I was involved in, has ignited such a large conversation. We don’t make movies to not connect with each other.”
Stewart is also considered to be a prominent contender for the upcoming Oscar Award for Best Actress. On a personal front, the actress recently confirmed her engagement to girlfriend Dylan Meyer and is currently preparing for her wedding.
