The Oscar nominees for Best Supporting Actress were announced Thursday (Jan. 16) and some of the most celebrated women in Hollywood are up for the award.
Lupita Nyong'o was nominated for "12 Years a Slave," Sally Hawkins for "Blue Jasmine," Jennifer Lawrence for "American Hustle," June Squibb for "Nebraska" and Julia Roberts for "August: Osage County." The list crossed over with the actresses up for the same honor at this year's Golden Globe Awards, where Jennifer Lawrence won for her role in "American Hustle" (beating out Sally Hawkins for "Blue Jasmine," Lupita Nyong'o for "12 Years a Slave," Julia Roberts for "August: Osage County," and June Squibb for "Nebraska").
At last year's 85th annual Academy Awards, Anne Hathaway won Best Supporting Actress for her performance in "Les Miserables" over Amy Adams for "The Master," Sally Field for "Lincoln," Helen Hunt for "The Sessions," and Jacki Weaver for "Silver Linings Playbook." Other past winners in the category include Goldie Hawn, Ingrid Bergman, Meryl Streep and Jessica Lange.
