Oscars 2022 nominations: Lady Gaga snubbed while Nicole Kidman, Kristen Stewart nominated

Lady Gaga has been shockingly snubbed in this year’s Oscars nominations, which were announced overnight. See the full list of nominees.

Aussie stars Nicole Kidman and Kodi Smit-McPhee nominated for Oscars

And the nominees are …

The 2022 Academy Awards are almost upon us — the night when A-list actors, singers and other members of the Hollywood elite will descend upon the steps of the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles next month.

The telecast is set to air in Australia March 28 on Channel 7, with the nominations announced by Leslie Jordan and Tracee Ellis Ross overnight.

The pair revealed the nominees across 23 categories in the announcement, which streamed on the Oscars website and the Film Academy’s social media accounts.

Kristen Stewart scored a nom for her role as Princess Diana in Spencer, despite being snubbed at the SAG awards, and will see herself competing against fan-favourites such as Nicole Kidman (Being the Ricardos) and Olivia Colman (The Lost Daughter). Lady Gaga was a surprise snub for House of Gucci, which came as a shock given she’s been nominated for most awards in the lead-up.

The Power of the Dog and Dune scored 12 and 10 nominations, respectively.

Meanwhile Will Smith may score two Oscars under his belt in one year, as he has received a nom for Best Actor and Best Picture for his role in King Richard, which he also produced.

West Side Story scored seven nods. There were also several couples in the mix who won nominations. Jesse Plemons and Kirsten Dunst both received nominations for their roles in The Power of the Dog while Javier Bardem and Penelope Cruz each separately won nods for Being the Ricardos and Parallel Mothers.

It was disclosed last month that the Oscars ceremony would finally have a host after three years of going host-less. The last time a celeb graced the stage to crack awkward monologue jokes and make fun of the nominees was in 2018, when Jimmy Kimmel took the gig.

Comedian Kevin Hart was slated to host back in 2019, however, he stepped down within days after controversy stemming from his past homophobic tweets. That year’s ceremony went on without a host and the ratings boosted and had much critical praise. The show was even a half-hour shorter than previous years’ four-hour telecasts.

The Academy is leaning towards having multiple hosts take the stage together this year. There is no word yet on who will be hosting the celebration of the film spectacular.
