Oscar SNUBS: Jennifer Lopez did not land a nod for Hustlers, Beyonce was shunned for her Lion King song Spirit and Frozen 2 was iced out
- Lopez was not shown Oscar love for her role as Ramona in Hustlers
- Beyonce was skipped over for her passionate Lion King song Spirit
- Frozen 2 has become a massive international hit but it got frozen out
- Greta Gerwig was not included in the Best Director category
- Loading up that category with only men may be seen as a sexist move
- The 92nd Annual Academy Awards will air live on February 9
The nominations for the 92nd Academy Awards were announced on Monday morning with Joker and The Irishman leading the pack.
But there were several big names left off the list shocking fans.
Jennifer Lopez was the most noticeable. The 50-year-old diva had picked up a Golden Globe nomination for her turn as hardened stripper Ramona in the drama Hustlers, but the Oscars failed to add her to the list.

Nope: The nominations for the 92nd Academy Awards were announced on Monday morning with the Joker and The Irishman leading the pack. But there were several big names left off the list shocking fans. Jennifer Lopez was the most noticeable; she is seen here winning an award at the Palm Springs Festival
Not on the list: The 50-year-old diva had picked up a Golden Globe nomination for her turn as hardened stripper Ramona in the drama Hustlers, but the Oscars failed to add her to the list
Lopez had also been nominated for a Screen Actors Guild Award, an Independent Spirit Award and a nod from the Palm Springs Film Festival, which she won, so an Oscar nomination felt feasible. But it did not come to be.
Instead, the nominees for Best Supporting actress went to Kathy Bates in Richard Jewell; Laura Dern in Marriage Story; Scarlett Johansson in Jojo Rabbit; Florence Pugh in Little Women; and Margot Robbie in Bombshell.
Nicole Kidman did not receive a nomination for her work in the drama Bombshell though her co-star Margot Robbie did in the Best Supporting Actress category. The film’s Charlize Theron was nominated for Best Actress.

Iced out: Frozen 2 was left of the Best Animated Feature list, despite being a hit with audiences. Instead, How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World, I Lost My Body, Klaus, Missing Link and Toy Story 4 made the grade
