Taylor Swift’s furious fans SLAM the Golden Globes and claim the singer was ‘robbed’ of award for her Eras Tour film: ‘They invented a whole new category and she still lost!’

 

The singer, 34, missed out on the inaugural prize for Cinematic and Box Office Achievement to box office megahit Barbie.

Robbie, 33, and director Greta Gerwig, 40, rushed to the stage along with the cast and crew to accept the award – while Swift was a gracious loser as she led the standing ovation.

However her fans were far less forgiving and flooded social media with complaints that Taylor was robbed of a prize, despite claiming it had been ‘invented’ for her.

One tweeted: ‘Golden globes is rigged taylor should have won,’ while another added: ‘I hope Taylor never goes to these FILM INDUSTRY non-worthy award shows. She is more impactful and popular than everyone in that room combined.’

A third viewer complained: ‘Taylor was robbed at Golden Globe Awards!!! How can you compare a cartoon movie with a global phenomenon?’

‘Taylor ROBBED,’ said one viewer.

One added: ‘They had to invent a category for Taylor Swift at the Golden Globes and she still lost lmao.’

‘Can’t believe we got robbed of seeing Luke Skywalker presenting Taylor Swift with a Golden Globe,’ one viewer shared.

Another said: ‘Barbie did not deserve the Golden Globe for Cinematic & Box Office Achievement. Taylor deserved that award actually.’

Rushing to the stage with director Greta, Margot said: ‘Thank you. We would like to dedicate this to every single person on the planet who dressed up and went to the greatest place on Earth, the movie theaters.

‘Thank you, and thank you to everybody, all the Barbies and Kens in front of and behind the screen.

‘It was the greatest most joyful show of craftsmanship and passion I’ve ever seen.

‘And on behalf of Tom and David and Robbie and I, we want to thank the brave individuals at Warner and Mattel for taking an extraordinary risk in literally inventing numbers to justify green lighting this, and then standing by at every step of the way.

‘Thank you to Noah Baumbach for showing his inner Barbie girl. Thank you to Ryan Gosling for going full beach. And America Ferrera for showing her soul.

Margot concluded her speech by thanking the award show for creating the new category which recognizes a film with ‘a box office receipt total/gross of $150 million, of which $100 million must come from the U.S. domestic box office, and/or obtain commensurate digital streaming viewership recognized by trusted industry sources’ according to the Golden Globes.

‘Last but not least, thank you so much to the Golden Globes for creating an award that celebrates movie fans.

‘This is a movie about Barbie, but it’s also a movie about humans. We made it — it’s about you. We made it for you, and we made it with love. Thank you for loving it back.

The fantasy comedy features Robbie as Barbie and Gosling as Ken as they embark on a journey of self-discovery following an existential crisis.

During his acceptance speech he said: ‘Thank you so much. Thank you so much. I just adored every second playing the weird and wonderful human grease stain that is Tom Wambsgans. Tom Wambsgans, CEO, I should say. God help us.

‘My love and thanks and admiration to Jesse Armstrong, as always. And to all Eric’s ordinary writers. I’m too scared to name them all, because I’ll forget someone and I want sleep. To Adam Mckay, Francie mazelike, HBO, wonderful directors and producers, and of course are gorgeous crew and cast who I miss very much. Thank you.’

This was Matthew’s first ever nomination and win at the Golden Globes as he was recognised for his work as Tom Wambsgans.
