For example, Ryan Gosling received a best supporting actor nomination, but Margot Robbie was snubbed. These include a few pleasant surprises, like best picture and best supporting actress for America Ferrera, who delivers a moving feminist monologue at the movie's climax. But Ryan Gosling nabbed a nomination for best supporting actor as Ken, the heroine's sidekick who becomes obsessed with the power of patriarchy. Related storiesThis might feel like déjà vu for Gerwig, who was similarly snubbed for her direction of best picture nominee "Little Women" in 2020, despite the film being nominated for best picture, best adapted screenplay, best actress, best supporting actress, best original score, and best costume design. Last week, "I'm Just Ken" won best song at the Critics Choice Awards, beating "What Was I Made For?"

An image appearing to show former U.S. President Donald Trump and his wife Melania Trump standing alongside adult film star Stormy Daniels is digitally altered. The image is altered and juxtaposes a photograph of the Trumps taken in 2005 with an image of Daniels standing by herself captured in 2006. The original image of the Trumps shows Donald and Melania Trump standing alongside Ivanka Trump and was taken at The Fashion Group International's Night of Stars in New York on Oct. 27, 2005. A similar image showing Melania and Donald Trump standing with Ivanka to their left and Vanessa Haydon, Donald Trump Jr taken at a slightly different angle is viewable (here). The image is altered to juxtapose two separate images and make it appear as if Donald and Melania Trump were standing with Stormy Daniels.
