Olivia Colman won an Oscar

Oscars 2019: How Olivia Colman won an Oscar and charmed the world


























Olivia Colman was a surprise winner for Best Actress.

In a night of upsets, Olivia Colman turned in one of the biggest by taking the lead actress Oscar for her role in The Favourite — and then winning over the crowd with the most charming speech of the night.

When her name was announced, a visibly stunned Colman was embraced by several around her as co-star Emma Stone, hugging her, mouthed, 'Oh my God, oh my God!" and director Yorgos Lanthimos shed a tear.

When Colman finally reached the stage, she said, "Ooh, it's genuinely quite stressful". She giggled and added, "This is hilarious. Got an Oscar.
"Yorgos, my best director in the best film, and with Emily and Rachel, the two loveliest women in the world to fall in love with, and to go to work with every day," she said, and turned to the audience, drawing one of many laughs: "I mean, you can imagine. It wasn't a hardship."
She thanked the others in her category, singling out Glenn Close: "You've been my idol for so long, and this is not how I wanted it to be, and I think you're amazing. I love you very much. I love you all."

The audience responded warmly to her genuine, tongue-tied ebullience, even when obligatorily thanking her agent with such joyful sincerity: "Thank you so much!"
She went on to thank "my kids, who are home and watching, look! Well, if you're not, then well kind of well done" as the crowd laughed with her again. "But I sort of hope you are. This is not going to happen again."
Colman, 45, is a veteran of British film and television, and previously worked with Lanthimos on The Lobster. She's as well known for her award-winning dramatic work in Broadchurch and The Night Manager as she is for comedic work including Peep Show and That Mitchell and Webb Look. She has accrued four BAFTAs, four British Independent Film Awards and two Golden Globes – including one of each award for The Favourite.
Next up, Colman assumes another juicy royal role as Elizabeth II in the third season of Netflix's The Crown (taking over from Emmy winner Claire Foy as the series moves forward in time).

On Oscar night, as she neared the end of her speech, she said, "I used to work as a cleaner and I loved that job. I spent quite a lot of my time imagining this. Oh, please wrap up, right," she said as she saw the warning sign, then gave a raspberry: "Bppptthhh.
"Thank you so much … ahhhh! Thank you so much. Ah, Lady Gaga!"
Then she blew a kiss to fellow nominee Gaga, which Gaga returned, and left the stage having also won over those in the room.

The naked truth
She has described playing one-half of a naturist couple trying to organise a naked wedding in the 2006 mockumentary Confetti as one of the worst experiences of her life.
"I would have felt better about it had I been aware how much was actually going to be on display," Colman told The Guardian in 2007.

She recently revealed on her Broadchurch castmate David Tennant's podcast that she got into an argument with Wikipedia over her listed age.
"I said, 'It's really upsetting me that you've made me eight years older than I actually am.' They said, 'We'd have to see a birth certificate to prove it,' and I went, 'Whose f...ing birth certificate have you looked at in the first place to make me eight years older!?"'
