Stars react to Golden Globe nominations

It has seven nominations, down from 15 a year ago. Golden Globes bosses mistakenly announced she was reading the nominations out live from the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles via , but it was actually Ugly Betty star America Ferrera on stage. While she was a likely nominee for her role as the wife of transgender artist Lili Elbe in "", it was quite a surprise to also see her recognized for her supporting performance in Alex Garland's elegant thriller "Ex Machina", where she plays the beguiling Artificial Intelligence creation Ava.

The fact that Zadora's billionaire husband Meshulam Riklis flew members of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association to Las Vegas to hear her sing and dance probably had nothing to do with her Golden Globe Award. Thank you to the Hollywood Foreign Press for your support. The 73rd annual Golden Globe nominations in film an... The big victor, most filmgoers and observers could agree, was audacity itself, as two equally bold sensibilities got the visibility and box office business that, without awards chatter, would otherwise have eluded them. 21 Century Fox's division won the the most nominations, indicating that when the award show airs in January, it could take home the most awards. But of course, it's always more fun to focus on the snubs.

Outlander is about a British woman magically transported to 18th century Scotland, and though it debuted strong previous year, it failed to win any awards - something the Globes may rectify, with nominations in the actor and actress category as well.

"Game of Thrones", a top victor at this year's Emmys, received only one nomination- the best television drama series.

Craig Erwich, Hulu's head of content, said days like Thursday show that the investment in original programming is paying off for Hulu and its new media rivals. The 29-year-old is additionally up for a Grammy for the song she co-wrote for the documentary, Til It Happens To You. The actresses, both in their 70's, represent an age group whose stories are rarely told in films, and the oversight stings.

Quentin Tarantino's "The Hateful Eight" also got left out in the cold. Still, Ruffalo did get the nod for a nomination for his role in "Infinitely Polar Bear" as a bipolar father.

"Lawrence's turn as the Miracle Mop inventor in "Joy" will fight it out with McCarthy's "", Amy Schumer for Trainwreck", Maggie Smith for "The Lady In The Van" and Lily Tomlin for "Grandma" in the best actress - musical or comedy list.

Saoirse Ronan - Nominee for Best Actress in a Motion Picture, Drama "Brooklyn": "I can't express how special it is that this little film called Brooklyn has been embraced by so many people around the world". The film did not receive a best picture nod, however, which may come as a disappointment to the SVOD, which has strategically chosen to distribute the film in theaters to make it eligible for awards such as the Golden Globes and the Oscars.

"Flesh and Bone", a gritty eight-hour limited series created by Emmy® award-winning "Breaking Bad" writer and Executive Producer Moira Walley-Beckett, follows a young dancer with a distinctly troubled past as she joins a prestigious ballet company in NY. George Miller's "Mad Max: Fury Road" was named best film by the National Board of Review.

And was perhaps too much of an ensemble piece for the Globes.

The Revenant picked up four Golden Globe nods but, surprisingly, there was nothing for Hardy at the Globes or Screen Actors Guild Award nominations.
