Oscar Nominee Florence Pugh Says Greta Gerwig Screamed Over Nod - E! Red Carpet & Award Shows

We got you a little something. You did? It's a little something. Yay! Bubbles! Listen, I don't know where they got that from, I don't know if it's any good, I can't attest to it. Thank you so much. This is exactly what I need. But I heard you on the phone at this point that you were going to have a little champagne. And that's what I said, I said I presume I should probably have some bubbles. So there's some of that. Thank you so much. Yeah, you're welcome. This is perfect. So who's the first person that you called? I called my mum, and she was just screaming at the phone as well, and it was a classic mum FaceTime where the phone was so close to her face, you know how they don't quite understand the ear and face thing. And it was literally at her nose and her mouth, and she was just going, yay! And I was like, yay, I can see your mouth! And then I tried calling my dad, and I was just in the middle of the sentence saying, oh my god, daddy, guess what? I've been nominated for a... and his phone went dead. No! Yeah. I know, I felt very sorry for him because he found out from the rest of the world and not from me. But it was quite funny. That is funny. Yeah. You could just imagine him as the screen goes back, and he was like, no! Were your parents always supportive of this? Did they... Yeah. Are they the kind of people who, like, a lot of people have got the story of, like, it was that moment, getting nominated for something great like this, where their parents were finally like, okay, I guess we're going to make a real thing of this then. No. It was the only thing that I could do as a kid. It was that, singing and playing with clay. It was like, those were the things, and so as amazing as they are parents, they just support, every single one of us in our family are performers, and they just supported that, loved that, and encouraged us, even when things were really low. So this is a mega, mega moment, and for them, it's for everyone, the Oscars are it. Have you had some text exchanges with Greta and the ladies? I actually called, we spoke this morning, and she just screamed for a solid four minutes, which was, I mean, all I needed to hear. I will say, I read her statement on the way over here, and a lot of people, as you probably well know, were very upset that she didn't get a specific nomination for director, even though the film, I mean, had got a bunch of nominations. But she released this very classy and thankful statement. What are your thoughts on her not getting this nomination? Of course it's sad. She's amazing. She's an amazing director, but we cleaned up. We got some. Yeah. So as sad as it is, we're just so excited, and so, it's amazing when people recognize your work, and Little Women has been recognized, and it's been seen, and that's a wonderful thing. So as sad as it is that she didn't get nominated, I think we're all just so happy, and she's so happy. Honestly, when we spoke, she just couldn't stop screaming. She was so proud. This has been kind of a hectic morning. Have you had a chance to think about the dress, the look, the style, all of that stuff that goes along with it? Yeah, I haven't had a second. I'm trying to not gloss over any of the amazing facts, so I'm not fast-forwarding. I'm taking it all in. Taking it all in. Taking it all in, and then we'll think about that another time. Congratulations on this. Congratulations on everything. Enjoy it. Enjoy the ride. 20, 20. Enjoy your primal scream from the top of your lungs.
