Ariana Grande and Zoe Saldana made waves at the Golden Globes First-Time Nominee Celebration on December 17, 2024, where the two actresses, both frontrunners for Best Supporting Actress this awards season, met for the first time on the red carpet. They recently tied for Best Supporting Actress at the Astra Awards for their roles in Wicked and Emilia Perez, respectively, and both received nominations in the same category for the upcoming Golden Globe Awards.
Zoe shared her excitement about supporting women, saying, “I’m one of three sisters, so cheering for women has always been a birthright and an obligation, a duty, and an honor. It’s something that is really dear to me, to always do that. Always empower women around me. We won the Astra Awards! It was a tie!”
Other stars in attendance at the event included Mikey Madison from Anora, Gabriel LaBelle from Saturday Night, Pamela Anderson from The Last Showgirl, Kathryn Hahn from Agatha All Along, and many more. Zoe looked stunning in a Saint Laurent dress, while Mikey Madison wore a JW Anderson dress.
The event was a glamorous gathering of talent, with excitement building for the upcoming awards season.
