That's true!

 

Regardless, staying off stan Twitter for a bit because the haters will be ready with their pitchforks :gaga:

 

It’s funny because the faves of the people making fun of her have all done way more movie roles and still haven’t had an Oscar nomination for anything acting related :lol:

 

Gagas power is undeniable. Also I can’t be 100% on this being true but I read somewhere that no actress has ever got best actress (as a lead actress) nominations for both their first two major movie roles so it’s not too bad she didn’t get nominated. I’d say she deserved the acting more for this role than ASIB but I’m sure she’s fine really there’s many other ceremonies to look forward too and I’m confident she’s going to win another Oscar at some point in the future.

 

She was obviously in a very competitive category too. The film itself may have went against her here I do agree there with what you said but I’m not too bothered really if it was a case of her not being recognised by any awards ceremonies I’d be wanting answers and questioning why she’s not getting respect but for a case of just one ceremony not nominating her I’m fine with that!

Ahh I’m shocked and gutted Gaga missed 😭 (the way BAFTAs gave me false hope that Gaga and Haim were making it ffs). Though I am over the moon K-Stew got in, which makes those snubs sting less bad for me.

 

I feel the actress race this year is just crazily close, I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if there was barely any votes between like 1st and 9th this year (Zegler & Reinsve we’re probs very close too considering their films had pretty good days)

Rumour has it GaGa hasn't been nominated for an Oscar, which means she will abandon MORE music for films, like she did with Alice :(

Wonder if she gets the invitation to attend - the movie didn't get many nominations. Maybe the Academy wants her there to present an award?

 

I mean she sung the Sound of Music medley when she wasn't nominated for anything so there might still be room for some Gaga glory...

 

 

If she's invited, I'd love her to still attend! Regardless of not having a nomination, her presence in the acting world this past year has been huge so it'd make sense for her to be in attendance!

I think this is a good article about the Oscar snubs

 

In hindsight, we can assume one of two things likely happened: first, Gaga's rise dovetails with Spencer star Kristen Stewart's fall. As brilliant of a film as Spencer is, general audiences many not have liked that it presented the story of an icon known and beloved by millions with daring liberties, in a deliberately fantastical (yet masterfully crafted) fashion. It's likely that some industry members felt the same way, as the film failed to score notices from SAG and, more surprisingly, BAFTA. With Gaga hitting those precursors that Stewart missed, the Academy's acting branch may have thought Gaga was performing well enough on the circuit that she didn't need their votes, and instead filled out their ballots in favor of Stewart, who they may have assumed needed it more after her SAG snub.

 

The other scenario is a bit more complicated. To combat a lack of diversity among nominees, BAFTA altered the way it votes in recent years. Acting categories contain multiple slots, with the top two determined by BAFTA-wide popular votes, while the rest of the bracket is filled out by a very, very small jury. When it comes to BAFTA, we simply don't know whether Gaga was the popular vote-getter or not, as the group doesn't release their vote tallies. Let's say, for the sake of this argument, that Gaga was not the popular pick, and was actually chosen by the small jury. So, instead of being the consensus pick across the industry, she could've actually been a contender boosted by smaller circles. Particularly with certain journalist collectives, they might've hoped to exploit her A-list celebrity status and industry clout to gain bigger platforms through the season.

 

Looking back, the fact that SAG's nominating committee is made up of less than 2,000 people pooled from its 100,000-plus total membership also indicates her initial support might not have been as widespread as we presumed — not to mention the mistake we all made (yet again) of equating the taste of the Golden Globes (just over 100 journalists) and Critics Choice (roughly 500 journalists) voters as barometers for industry affection.

 

A potential third scenario also exists, as outlined in an EW interview with an anonymous member of the Academy's writing branch following Hustlers star Jennifer Lopez's shocking snub at the 2020 ceremony: "The snubs of Jennifer Lopez for Hustlers and of Adam Sandler for Uncut Gems are in part high versus low culture. I think some of the new members of the Academy don't have the same affection we have for comedic actors or more mainstream actors stepping outside of that," the writer told EW, suggesting that the Academy's push to include more members from worldwide regions could've contributed to the disparity as well. "[international voters]have a stronger division of high and low culture, so they didn't appreciate those performances the way Americans did."

I don't want her at the Oscars. If they were dumb enough not to recognize the year's best performance, then she doesn't need to show up.
I don't want to see her forcing sympathy and pretending to be happy. If they boycotted her, she has to boycott them too.

Oh please.. No one boycotted her, there were just five women who got more votes. That's all.

 

I do indeed wonder if she will attend. Usually actors who didn't get a nomination and who star in the movie that didn't get a lot of nominations either skip, but who knows. Would love to see her serve a wild Oscars look.

No thanks, she doesn't have to go to a party she wasn't invited to. She should go to BAFTAs because they recognized her talent.

I think it would be cute for her to go with Frederic for his nom, but I understand if she wouldn't want to go.
