Mikey Madison wins best actress for Anora
She might have been a dark horse at the start of awards season, but this year’s youngest best actress nominee has only gone and done it!
While comeback queen Demi Moore set the pace, scooping up prizes left, right and centre in the run-up to tonight, 25-year-old Madison’s win at the Baftas a couple of weeks ago put her right in the race.
Her raw and honest portrayal of a sex worker trying to keep a lid on her vulnerability has won plaudits since it premiered in Cannes and won the Palme d’Or. Now she’s won the ultimate prize. She said she hadn’t prepared a speech for her Bafta win but hopefully that prompted her to make some notes for this one!
The other nominees in this category were:
- Cynthia Erivo – Wicked
- Karla Sofía Gascón – Emilia Pérez
- Mikey Madison – Anora
- Demi Moore – The Substance
- Fernanda Torres – I’m Still Here
