Africa Melane chats to entertainment journalist Caryn Welby-Solomon.

‘Emilia Perez’, ‘The Brutalist’, ‘Shogun’ and ‘Baby Reindeer' were the big winners at this year’s Golden Globes Awards. 

In the acting categories, big wins went to Sebastian Stan for ‘A Different Man’, Fernanda Torres for ‘I’m Still Here’, and Kieran Culkin for ‘A Real Pain’.

Demi Moore became a first-time winner at 62. She won the award for 'Best Actress' for ‘The Substance’. 

In her emotional acceptance speech, she says this was the first time she had won anything as an actor after 45 years in the industry.

“I think all of us have grown up watching Demi Moore in stuff, so to be able to see her get the recognition she deserves was the highlight so far for me… She went above and beyond with that character.” 

– Caryn Welby-Solomon, Entertainment journalist 

‘Wicked’, the most talked about film of the year, missed out on acting awards.

It did, however, take home an award for its box office success.

“I think once we get to the Oscars, they might pick up more technical awards for things like production design, costumes… This was the only award ‘Barbie’ won last year as well.”
