Leonardo DiCaprio wins Golden Globe for dramatic actor

January 16 20:03 2016

According to Amobee Brand Intelligence, Lady Gaga, who won an award for her role on American Horror Story: Hotel, was the most talked about celebrity of the night with 141,147 mentions.

When the Oscar nominations are announced on Thursday, industry experts will be eager to see whether the film nabs a nomination aside from editing and visual effects.

“We struggled in low temperatures and hard conditions to make this film happen, but we all know in this room that pain is temporary but a film is forever, so who cares?”

The veteran actor is still Oscar-less after winning the Golden Globe for best actor for his role in the The Revenant, and several publications are predicting this is the role that’ll finally earn him an Oscar as well. To all the indigenous communities around the world, it is time that we recognize your history and we protect your indigenous lands from corporate interests and people out there that would exploit them.

Hungarian “Son of Saul” won the best picture in foreign language, overcoming competition from the Chilean “El Club”.

Despite some diversity in the nominee ranks, the film acting awards were still won exclusively by Caucasians, rousing some worry that the Oscars may follow suit despite increased scrutiny after last year’s #OscarsSoWhite criticisms.

The comedian called the Hollywood crowd “sexual deviant scum” and took aim at the organisers, network hosts NBC, Sean Penn, the Catholic Church, Roman Polanski, Caitlyn Jenner, Jennifer Lawrence and the previous hosts.

Amy Schumer and Jonah Hill also dropped bleeped-out comments at the 73rd annual ceremony.

Alongside DiCaprio’s award for best actor in a drama, The Revenant also won in the best drama and best director categories.

The most tweets overall went to Gaga, with Lawrence coming in second and DiCaprio third. “She’s about to turn two, and it’s the greatest thing ever”, John gushed. Sam Smith also won his first Globes for Writings on the Wall, the theme song for the latest James Bond movie Spectre.

Other popular winners includes Sylvester Stallone, 69, who received a standing ovation as best supporting film actor for reprising his iconic role as boxer Rocky Balboa in “Creed“, beating presumed frontrunner Mark Rylance for “Bridge of Spies“.

Twice-nominated Orange is the New Black lost out yet again, having been given the hat tilt three times in 2015, while last year’s victor for best actor in a TV drama House of Cards also left empty handed.

Golden Globes should provide traction in Oscar race
