The
iconic
Hollywood
actress
Meryl
Streep
becomes
the
first
Hollywood
star
to
be
nominated
for
the
20th
Oscar,
as
she
has
been
nominated
in
the
category
of
Best
Actress
for
her
part
in
Florence
Foster
Jenkins.
However,
the
three
times
Oscar
winner
Meryl
Streep
will
have
a
fierce
competition
in
the
category
from
Ruth
Negga
for
Loving,
Natalie
Portman
for
the
movie
Jackie,
Isabelle
Huppert
for
the
film
Elle
and
obviously
the
favourite
Emma
Stone
from
La
La
Land.
Meryl
Streep,
67,
was
first
nominated
for
Oscar
in
the
year
1979
for
the
film
titled
The
Deer
Hunter,
in
the
category
of
Best
Supporting
Actress.
However,
she
lost
the
award
to
Maggie
Smith
for
the
film
California
Suite.
Ultimately,
she
won
the
first
Oscar
for
her
movie
Kramer
vs
Kramer
in
the
year
1980.
Meryl
Streep
is
very
excited
to
get
her
20th
Oscar
nomination
which
came
after
she
openly
slammed
President
Donald
Trump
on
the
stage
of
Golden
Globe
Awards
2017.
Streep,
who
is
an
ardent
follower
of
Hillary
Clinton
took
down
Donald
Trump
in
her
award
acceptance
speech.
In
reply
to
which
Trump
even
called
her
an
over-rated
actress.
"Meryl
Streep,
one
of
the
most
overrated
actresses
in
Hollywood,
doesn't
know
me
but
attacked
last
night
at
the
Golden
Globes.
She
is
a
Hillary
flunky
who
lost
big." Stated
Trump.
But
this
award
nomination
proved
enough
to
silence
her
critics
all
over.
