Golden Globe

Bodyguard has become the BBC's first series to be nominated for an Outstanding Drama Series Emmy in nearly 50 years, but it's star was snubbed in the Best Actor drama category.

The actor played the role of David Budd, war veteran turned head of security for controversial British Home Secretary Julia Montague, played by Keeley Hawes.

Madden picked up the Golden Globe for Best Actor in a TV Drama Series, beating Ozark‘s Jason Bateman, Stephan James (Homecoming), Pose's iconic Billy Porter and Matthew Rhys (The Americans).

It's fair to say that fans are absolutely livid over the former Game of Thrones actor's snub, and are demanding answers…

Critic Scott Feinberg of the Hollywood Reporter pointed out in a tweet how odd it was to see the show nominated without Madden getting a nod when he was in pretty much every scene.

Madden received great reviews for his recent appearance in Elton John biopic Rocketman, and was even named one of 2019’s 100 Most Influential People by Time magazine…So why the rudeness?

Critic Philiana Ng of Entertainment Tonight agreed with the fans about the shocking omission, using Madden's image as a meme to show her dismay;

Twitter user Katy wrote; "Golden Globe Winner Richard Madden snubbed of an Emmy nomination just doesn’t sit right with me at all.

"He put his heart and soul into making 360 minutes of television & delivered one of the most breathtaking performances I’ve ever seen and then doesn’t even get nominated." DAMN RIGHT.

Some even resorted to using Emmy-nominated Kit Harington to emphasise their sadness;

The star gave his all when it came to his performance as David Budd, who suffers from PTSD from his time serving in the British army in Afghanistan.

The thriller aired in the US on Netflix but was originally produced by ITV-owned producer World Productions for the British public broadcaster.

As well as Bodyguard's Outstanding Drama Series nomination, creator Jed Mercurio also picked up a nomination for Outstanding Writing For A Drama Series for the pilot.

Game of Thrones leads the Emmy Awards nominations, setting a new record with a whopping 32 total nominations.

Brilliant Phoebe Waller-Bridge BBC show Fleabag landed 11 nominations, including a Lead Actress nod for the writer/actress, whose show Killing Eve also received multiple nominations.

Bodyguard is expected to return for season two, with Mercurio saying he was “optimistic” about its chances of a renewal. All we want right now though, is Justice For Richard.

Saoirse Ronan stepped out in a custom-made Gucci gown – and she was SMOKIN'.

The silver floor-length dress had a plunging neckline, crystal embroidery and fringed embellishment that oozed a 1920 fashion-feel. 

Saoirse embodied the movie star feel and her role in Mary, Queen of Scots was adored by critics – G'wan, gal.

Taylor Swift's evening attire was also a stand-out for us as she presented two awards.

Tay-Tay looked flawless in a black Versace dress, which featured a high-thigh slit.

Our gal completed the look with a red lip and her hair styled up – what a babe.

Lady Gaga's purple Valentino Couture gown was all the talk of the red carpet.

It was speculated that her outfit choice was a tribute to Judy Garland. 

Judy wore a similar dress in the 1954 remake of A Star is Born, where she played Ally – the same role as Gaga. 

However, Gaga explained that the purple gown was just coincidental and she didn't mean to copy Garland.

Gorgeous Gaga didn't only win at the fashion game last night.

The singer went home with a Golden Globe for the Best Original Song Award for Shallow in A Star Is Born.

We can't get enough of their iconic looks – these are definitely our faves.  

What look stood out for you?

"To anybody anywhere who feels like giving up sometimes but finds it in themselves to get up and keep fighting, I share this with you," so said Emma Stone upon receiving a Golden Globe for her role in La La Land at last night's award show.

In a short but moving speech, 28-year-old Emma exhibited the warmth and humility which has helped make her one of most popular and admired actresses in the industry over the past decade.

The actress, who has been nominated twice before but failed to come away with a gong, paid tribute to her family and friends before turning her attention to anyone who has shown strength of character in the face of adversity and rejection.

Articulate, eloquent, elegant, but – perhaps most importantly – humble, Emma Stone is easily one of our favourite stars, and here are just seven reasons why we adore her.

1. She does it for the redheads… and the blondes… and the brunettes.

No matter what colour your hair is, Emma is one of the few stars who can provide a picture-perfect example of the look you're going for in preparation for your next hair appointment.

2. The words of advice we don't realise we need to hear until she utters them.

Preach on Emma, preach on!

3. Her refusal to conform to Hollywood's beauty ideals, focussing instead on what actually makes a captivating performer… and, you know, person in general.

Spread the word, Miss Stone.

4. Her goofball sense of humour, and her reluctance to tame it no matter what the situation.

Interview, award show, or press event; Emma is always naked… except for her clothes and underwear obviously.

5. When she said what most of us begin thinking around lunch-time on a Friday.

How much do we wanna have Sunday pints wih this girl?

6. The time she fan-girled so hard over a Spice Girl, we all claimed her as our spirit animal.

Would you look at how excited she is?

7. The time she was so adorable, we almost wept.

Emma, we salute you.
