The actress Demi Moore 62, celebrated his first Oscar nomination with a video call to his friend, also actress Gwyneth Paltrow 52.
The star was nominated in the category of best actress for her interpretation of Elisabeth Sparkle in the horror movie “The Substance.” The announcement was made on Thursday (23), and Demi will compete for the statuette with Brazilian Fernanda Torres (“I’m still here”), as well as Karla Sofia Gasco (“Emilia Pérez”), Mikey Madison (“Anora”) and Cynthia Erivo (“Wicked”).
Shortly after the nomination, Demi appeared visibly thrilled on a video call with Gwyneth, the jewelry designer Jennifer Meyer and the actress and producer Sara Foster . Sara captured a moment of the conversation and shared the image on her Instagram: “Ladies and gentlemen … The actress nominated for the Oscar… Demi Moore.”
For Brazilians, the relationship between Gwyneth and Oscar carries special meaning – and even controversial . In 1999, Fernanda Torres’s mother, Fernanda Montenegro, now 95, made history when she became the first Latin American artist indicated to the Best Actress Award for her role in the movie “Central do Brasil”, by Walter Salles .
At the time, the statuette ended up in the hands of Gwyneth, for his performance in “Shakespeare in love “. The US victory generated controversy amid allegations that powerful studio campaigns influenced the result.
Now, 26 years later, Fernanda Torres competes in the same category as her mother for “I’m still here”, also by Walter Salles. Shortly before the official announcement, Fernanda commented, in an interview with BBC’s Radio Weekend program, that he avoids creating expectations for awards.
“I hate expectations. I am a pessimist by nature. And whatever comes, I’ll be happy. You know, I’m more than happy with my heavy golden globe in my suitcase, ”he joked, referring to the prize he received earlier this month for the same role.
Despite the enthusiasm of the fans, the star said it does not measure success through awards. “I don’t get life in terms of winning or losing,” he said.
In addition to Fernanda’s nomination, “I’m still here” made history by being nominated in the categories of best film and best international film.
