Aussie stars shine at the SAGS
THE STARS DITCHED THEIR BLACK GOWNS FOR THE PRESTIGIOUS AWARDS CEREMONY
The Golden Globes may have been awash with political messages and sombre black frocks, but it was an entirely different affair as Hollywood’s brightest stars descended on the red carpet for the 2018 Screen Actors Guild Awards last week.
Nicole Kidman – who was joined by husband Keith Urban – took home her first ever SAG award for her role in Big Little Lies. ‘It means a lot to me,’ gushed the 50-year-old actress.
‘I have been working since I was 14 years old... this is reality colliding with fantasy.
‘How wonderful it is that our careers can go beyond 40 years old,’ the star also added.
‘Twenty years ago, we were pretty washed up by this stage of our lives. We are proving that we are potent and powerful and viable. I beg that the industry stays behind us.’ Hear, hear!
Nicole’s Big Little Lies co-star Alexander Skarsgard also took home the award for Best Actor. He was criticised for failing to mention victims of domestic violence in his acceptance speech, instead choosing to joke: ‘A lot of people have been talking about who the greatest male actor ever is. Is it Mr Robert de Niro? Or the tall dude from True Blood? The thespians have spoken, thank you very much.’
Meanwhile, Margot Robbie – who missed out on a gong for her role in I, Tonya – appeared to have found inspiration from the movie with her figure skatinginspired Miu Miu frock, complete with ostrich feathers!
