We don't call her Queen Meryl for nothing.
On Tuesday morning, Meryl Streep was nominated for her 20th (!!!) Academy Award, proving yet again why she's considered one of the greatest actors of all time. Streep, who won the Cecil B. DeMille Award at this year's Golden Globe Awards, broke her own record with Tuesday's nomination ― Actress in a Leading Role ― for the film "Florence Foster Jenkins."
To express her excitement over the nomination, Streep shared the following gif (via a publicist) in a statement obtained by The Los Angeles Times. It's perfect:
Streep, 67, has held the record for most nominations for a few years now, with Katharine Hepburn and Jack Nicholson tied behind her with 12 nominations each.
Naturally, folks on social media were delighted to see Streep's name in the category. People also couldn't help but call out President Donald Trump, who called the actress overrated after she directed her Golden Globes speech at him.
