Asian victories, Lady Gaga's act and organizers' forgetfulness: what is being discussed in social networks after the Oscars

The Oscars were held in the United States.

The main prize went to the multi-genre film directed by Dan Kwan and Daniel Scheinert "Everything is everywhere and at once."

The tape became the absolute leader in the number of prizes received, winning seven awards - for director, original screenplay, editing, female lead (Michelle Yeoh) and supporting roles (Ke Huy Kuan and Jamie Lee Curtis).

In this regard, an active discussion has unfolded on social networks.

While many rejoice, others lament that Steven Spielberg's Fabelmana, Martin McDonagh's Banshee Inisherin, Baz Luhrmann's Elvis, and Todd Field's Tar are not awarded any prizes.

“The Oscars are nothing short of a grand group masturbation session for the rich.

Meanwhile, pictures that challenge capitalism, imperialism and draw attention to a wide range of issues are being ignored by the media,” a Twitter user wrote.

Another commentator said that his pet would have disposed of the awards wiser than the members of the American Film Academy.

“I have a monkey at home that has more brains than (members. -

) of the academy,” the blogger wrote.

However, some users of the site note that the film “Everything is everywhere and at once” deservedly took the main prize this year.

“Everything is everywhere at once” is a great film, and at the same time, Angela Bassett did an excellent job in her role, ”said the viewer.

Some called for attention to the fact that the Oscar winners were "immigrants", referring to artists of Asian origin.

"Immigrant.

Oscar Winner!

Ted Cruz, that's who you want to keep out of America.

— the blogger turned to the senator of the Republican Party.

We must welcome immigrants.

They want to work hard and succeed.”

Another topic discussed was the victory of Brendan Fraser in the nomination "Best Actor" for the film "The Whale".

Some write that the actor had a "triumphant return to the cinema", others note that he deserved the award from the first day in the industry.

However, there are those who are sure that the award should have gone to Colin Farrell for his role in the movie "Banshee of Inisherin".

Some bloggers were genuinely upset by his defeat.

One of them called it a "British disappointment" at the Oscars and demanded "fairness" for the actor - according to the viewer, the artist deserves an award already for the game of eyebrows, because they come from more emotions and actions than from 90% of Marvel films.

At the same time, the organizers of the award for the In Memoriam section in memory of the departed cinematographers have been criticized on social networks for several years now.

This year, John Travolta paid tribute to his colleagues.

The actor barely held back tears, remembering his Grease co-star Olivia Newton-John, who died of cancer.

In the video, which is accompanied by the song Calling All Angels performed by Lenny Kravitz, the audience did not see many of the artists who departed last year to another world.

Among them are Paul Sorvino, Anne Heche, as well as actress Sharlby Dean, who played a central role in the top prize-winning film Triangle of Sorrow.

“She played one of the main roles in the film nominated in the Best Film of the Year category, and you didn’t add her to (segment. -

) In Memoriam?!?!

RIP Sharlby Dean,” the post reads.

Also in the spotlight was the singer Lady Gaga.

The audience admires the nobility of the actress, who helped the fallen photographer to rise on the red carpet, as well as her talent, simplicity and sincerity.

During the performance of the song Hold My Hand from the film "Top Gun: Maverick", the vocalist appeared on stage without makeup, in a black T-shirt and jeans, although she walked along the carpet in an elegant black dress.

According to users, performing at the Oscars in casual clothes is “revolutionary!”.

Commentators noted that Gaga is true to her principles - she always does the opposite of what is expected of her. 

“Everyone expected a luxurious show, but Lady Gaga has once again proved that she only needs her talent to shine.

No tinsel, only a chamber vocal performance, ”said the blogger.

Also, Lady Gaga was called the “cutest” person and “pure soul” for her reaction to the victory of the song Naatu Naatu from the Indian film RRR: Revolution Roars Nearby.

The audience emphasized that the singer sincerely rejoices at the success and recognition of other artists, as she is a fan of high art.

In addition, they are sure that Gaga understands how important this historic victory was for her Indian colleagues.

Among other things, social media users traditionally discuss celebrity outfits, many of whom have chosen classic looks this year.

The network admires the appearance of Jamie Lee Curtis, Angela Bassett, Cara Delevingne, Ana de Armas, Pedro Pascal, Salma Hayek, Dan Kwan and Eva Longoria.

Only the bulky dress of the Tems singer, which blocked the view of everyone who sat next to and behind her, is actively criticized.

The artist was called the most "ignorant, rude and selfish person" of the event, and the dress was called ridiculous.
