Oscar frontrunner Michelle Yeoh shared an article that directly criticized her main competition, Cate Blanchett—the same violation that got fellow nominee Andrea Riseborough in trouble.
“Detractors would say that Blanchett’s is the stronger performance—the acting veteran is, indisputably, incredible as the prolific conductor Lydia Tár—but it should be noted that she already has two Oscars,” says thepiece, reshared in a now-deleted post on Yeoh’s Instagram.
The article continues: “Meanwhile, for Yeoh, an Oscar would be life-changing: her name would forever be preceded by the phrase ‘Academy Award winner,’ and it should result in her getting meatier parts, after a decade of being criminally underused in Hollywood.” This share on Yeoh’s Instagram came just hours before Oscars voting was set to close at 5:30 p.m. ET on Tuesday. The actress deleted the carousel just as folks were starting to react online were starting to call her out for being “messy”—or, in certain cases, defend her actions.. In no. 11, “References to Other Nominees,” Part B reads: “any tactic that singles out ‘the competition’ by name or titles is expressly forbidden.
