Same but I love both because I'm Native American myself. And surprisingly, Lily Gladstone was the first Native American to ever be nominated for an academy award.

I agree!! But i don’t like that they had to read from a teleprompter maybe next time they should memorize!

They sounded so insincere and like they were reading from a Hallmark card. Except for Sally Field, who seemed sincere. And Sam Rockwell and Nic Cage were very funny with theirs, the only guys who didn't seem to be reading off a script.

Definitely not sincere when they’re reading from a teleprompter. Especially when they mention “elevating the craft.” It reminds me of Adrian Brody’s robotic speech when he was one of the five at the Oscars. They should have them speak from the heart

I loved Michelle Yeoh’s win last year and I’m very happy for Emma’s win, this year! I would’ve seriously groaned if another overly dramatic, biopic role wins again (Annette Bening in “Niad” or Carey Mulligan in “Maestro”)

@@davy209 even if it had been the best performance?

[@davy209]

@leserrors7669- Don’t get me wrong, if the dramatic and/or biopic role was the best if the year, then it’s totally deserving to win, like Cillian Murphy in “Oppenheimer”. I’m just saying, movie roles from genre films often gets overlooked at awards shows, in favor for the more “prestigious” dramatic performances, and it gets pretty stale overtime to see the same type of roles win every single year. So it’s a pleasant surprise to a few “genre” type roles get nominated or win. (Natalie Portman for “Black Swan”, Robert Downey Jr. for “Tropic Thunder”, Daniel Kaluuya for “Get Out”, Maria Bakalova for “Borat”, and Michelle Yeoh” for “Everything, Everywhere, All At Once”.

Emma Stone's performance in Poor Things was incredible, captivating, hilarious and mesmerizing. I'm so glad that she won.

[@BatmanHQYT]

Holy fuck I'm so happy!! Hands down my favorite performance of 2023. Lily Gladstone and Sandra Hüller were VERY tight competition though, this was a stacked year.

[@rebekahp4083]

I would have been happy with Sandra, Emma, or Lily winning. Truly a great year for the best actress category!

[@davy209]

I felt that Lily Gladstone would’ve absolutely swept all of the awards if she’d completed in the supporting category, which was much less competitive than in Lead Actress. Viola Davis put herself in supporting to not compete against Emma in lead and they both ended up winning and it could’ve happened again this year.

[@josegermanpastranaacosta4668]

I wish that Andrew Garfiel would win the Oscar the next year for "We live in time", and Emma present the award for "Best actor" and read the name of Andrew for winner, that moment would be georgous 🙏🏻

[@AmyAnnetteHenion]

Well deserved. Emma Stone’s Poor Things performance made La La Land look like child’s play in comparison

[@marikamarika7205]

She constantly grows in her art❤ she knew after her first win she needs to work even harder.

[@PenSwordGayming]

I expected Lily to win but at least she was a good sport about the loss and Emma was humble in her speech.

[@jedijones]

Hopefully the loss won't drive her to drink.

[@davy209]

Lily Gladstone said in an interview that she build an instant friendship with Emma Stone and they both gave each other matching friendship rings and called it their “infinity stones”! The whole story is super cute and I believe that Lily’s reaction to Emma’s win was sincere.

[@Payton_Jordan1997]

They both have Stone in their last names.

[@TheVioletWolf]

Sandra was who i wanted to win, because her performance was spectacular and it appeared to be so incredibly demanding... but they were all so so good, ans Emma was a vision.

[@simpleplanfan011]

Emma genuinely didn’t think she was gonna win because she didn’t even have a speech prepared. Even the look on her face was one of shock. I was rooting for Lily to win but Emma totally deserved this win. Congrats!

[@davisonronald3877]

Two time oscar winner Emma Stone. Both were deserved and she was one of the best actresses in Hollywood.

[@pams5710]

I’m glad Emma won! I was hoping she would. Her performance was amazing! She deserved it!

[@powwowcritic13]

If Lily Gladstone was white she probably would've won!!! But yet halle berry had to get naked to win a Oscar, just shows how racist Hollywood is

[@itsjustme0123]

I don't think she was expecting to win. Lily Gladstone was the favorite to take this category. But Emma is amazing, she totally deserved to win.

[@tony4534]

It was a toss up, Emma actually won more precursors than Lily.

[@larkpraise]

How about giving Sally Field and Jessica Lange a great movie role? They’ve still got it!

[@willyaguilar7026]

I love that she looks more surprised and in shock than her “La La Land” win. I know this year was a toss-up, while that year she was a frontrunner, but seeing her in shock, crying, turning around to see if it’s true…reminds you that she is the superb acting voice of this generation

[@thickerconstrictor9037]

When I watch the Oscars all I can think of is the episode of South Park where they're sniffing their own farts

[@dlloyd6300]

And JUST when you thought that Emma Stone couldn't be more likeable......

[@lushrimbaughiii]

Friend goals is Jennifer Lawrence facilitating the handing over of the Oscar to her overwhelmed friend while also crying

[@sisig_maria]

still thinking about this! lily gave one HELL of a performance and could've easily won any other year, but my god do we blame it on timing cuz this is probably emma's best acting ever.

[@shalevai]

Humble, quite, respectful. Emma is working in Hollywood, doing a great job. Sometimes missunderstood, for some reason- hated. But thats life. Happy for her and for us, because we got to see her perform live.

[@katyhale5230]

The look on her face was just pure shock and so heartwarming. And then Jennifer was crying for her winning. How can anybody not love Emma?

[@adolfopena7358]

Mark Ruffalo was freaking the fuck out!!! Hes so lovely!

[@りゅうよし-f1n]

リアルタイムで観ていたけどこれは超絶納得の受賞だった。 エマ・ストーンさん、2度目の受賞おめでとうございます！ あとリリー・グラッドストーンさんとキャリー・マリガンがエマ・ストーンさんの名前が呼ばれた時に真っ先に立ち上がって拍手をしていて凄く良い人なんだろうなって思った。

[@anthonyavellanet4232]

She is so beautiful.

[@sherlock1619]

Emma won her second Oscar for best actress only 7 years after she won her first one. Her performance in Poor Things is truly a breakthrough for her. You can't tell how brilliant she was! Also, I hope Lily and Sandra could win an Oscar someday.❤

[@meagan4605]

Do you hear how they cheered? It sounded like a football field's crowd cheering for their teams. Everyone must've been rooting for her - and I don't blame them, her performance was absolutely stunning. The best of her career.

[@noeliaorellana320]

The part about her baby girl 😭

[@jesykahashope]

What a precious human ❤❤

[@58lespaul]

She completely deserved it. That was like no other performance I’ve ever seen. 🔥🔥🔥

[@Charlee152]

Her response when her name was called was so heart-warming! She's amazing. I love that the previous recipients were there to announce the names of each of the nominees. Congratulations, Emma!

[@vasyatarasov]

she's the sweetest person I've ever seen
