Demi Moore’s “Furious” Reaction to Missing Out on First Oscar Revealed
Demi Moore’s “furious” one-word reaction to missing out on her first ever Oscar can be revealed, according to lip reader Nicky Hickling.
During the 2025 ceremony, Moore, 62, lost out to Mikey Madison, 25, for the Best Actress award. Hickling analyzed Moore’s reaction, noting that she said “nice” with a forced nod, indicating her underlying disappointment.
A source mentioned that Moore was visibly upset and her response was a sarcastic take on the decision.
Moore was a favorite for the award, having won both a Golden Globe and a BAFTA for her role in Substance.
While Madison won for her role in Anora, many fans of Moore expressed their disappointment on social media platforms.
One fan expressed feeling heartbroken for Moore, while another stated that Moore was snubbed and the Oscars don’t take older women seriously.
Another fan shared their devastation at Moore not winning, while a fourth simply stated that Moore was robbed.
In her acceptance speech, Madison acknowledged and honored the sex worker community, a theme in her winning film, Anora.
She also thanked her fellow nominees, including Moore, for their incredible work.
Anora went on to win the Best Picture Award, along with three other awards for Best Original Screenplay, Achievement in Film Editing, and Best Director for its writer and director.
The film follows the story of a young escort from Brooklyn who marries the son of a Russian oligarch, leading to a series of challenges and threats to her fairy tale.
