Top 10 Actresses Who Should Have Been Nominated for Oscar
When it comes to the Oscars, not every great performance gets the recognition it deserves. Sometimes, the Academy overlooks work that leaves audiences in awe, sparking debates among movie lovers for years. This list is all about those actresses who delivered standout performances that deserved a nomination but didn't get one.
Yes, she was. And the most charismatic and most beautiful I've ever seen her. Plus, as a fan, you can tell it was a cathartic performance of her forgiving the world for taking her mother at 5 years old and embracing her maternity. It took serious hard work to sing the way that she did before and discover her upper register, using her head voice and singing as a mezzo-soprano. Her rendition of Don't Cry for Me Argentina was tender, lyrical, and beautiful. The best singing of her career and the most impressive growth.
She and Emma Thompson were literally the only remembered performances of that year. How could she not be nominated?
YES! She was so good and hot in that role. She was so convincing.
Can't believe her performance didn't make the cut in the least memorable year of the '90s.
The Newcomers
I was really surprised when I found out she wasn't nominated. She was definitely robbed.
And Niagara, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, The Misfits, How to Marry a Millionaire, Asphalt Jungle, River of No Return, and maybe even Clash by Night and Bus Stop - all great performances. Certainly, she should have one, at least, one Oscar.
Best supporting for sure. Punishing her bad behavior on set by withholding a nomination was not only cruel but nasty.
It was more of a teen movie and not something that would usually get nominated. That's why she didn't get nominated, even though she deserved to be at least nominated.
She should be nominated for an Oscar for this film because of the way she played the role of Jamie Sullivan. It's unforgettable.
Pam is a '70s icon who is known for her extreme beauty as well as her powerhouse acting. Her role in Jackie Brown received rave reviews, and many were shocked she didn't receive an Oscar nomination.
This performance was one of the biggest snubs ever. I'm not African American, but I can truly say she deserved the Oscar for her performance in Jackie Brown.
Monica deserves an Oscar for her performance in this movie. Chanceless. Bold and beautiful in the real sense. Mind-blowing... she rocks.
As to why her peers cannot see how great an actress Demi is, is simply beyond comprehension. Demi Moore is a really awesome actress.
Demi Moore has gone in bad movies, but Ghost is just awesome. Not only for the great performance of Whoopi Goldberg and her chemistry with Swayze, but also Moore was everything. She cried, laughed, and made us feel the way she did. She deserved much more than what she got.
Those jerks of the Academy have nominated that baby-faced JLaw 3 dang times and she even won one, but Demi Moore in Ghost was snubbed?! What?
This is a Best Actress-worthy role. I can't really think of any other actress that could have played this role as well as she did. To me, Kathy has always been underrated even though she has an Oscar to her name.
