The Color Purple star and talk show host, Whoopi Goldberg, rejects the overwhelming sentiments that the lead actor and director of Barbie were snubbed by the Oscars during their nomination announcement for the 96th Academy Awards.While speaking on The View, Goldberg addressed the conversation surrounding the exclusion of Margot Robbie from the Best Actress category and Greta Gerwig’s failure to make the Best Director cut for the upcoming Oscars. While her fellow panelists echoed the widespread feeling Robbie and Gerwig should have been nominated for the awards mentioned above, Goldberg offered no sympathy, stressing how “subjective” the voting process is. “It’s not the elites, it’s the entire family of the Academy Awards who vote for Best Picture nominations. We all vote for Best Picture, everybody,” she said. “There are no snubs. That’s what you have to keep in mind: Not everybody gets a prize, and it is subjective. Movies are subjective. The movies you love may not be loved by the people who are voting.”Despite receiving eight Oscar nods, including Best Picture and Best Adapted Screenplay, Barbie’s Best Actress and Best Director snubs have arguably been the biggest talking points of the nomination announcement. Star Ryan Gosling, who picked up a Best Supporting Actor nomination for his role as Ken, released a statement expressing his disappointment with the decision and stressing how vital Robbie and Gerwig were to the film. Meanwhile, America Ferrera, who earned a Best Supporting Actress nomination for playing the helpful Mattel employee, Gloria, in Barbie, was left baffled by the omissions while praising Robbie and Gerwig for their vision.
