Megan Markle and Prince Harry found themselves in the unenviable position of being nominated as one of Hollywood's most significant losers of the year, a designation bestowed upon them by The Hollywood Reporter.
The publication asserted that the couple faced an unprecedented level of scorn and mockery throughout the year, marking a downturn in their Hollywood status. Interestingly, Megan's Hollywood loss was juxtaposed with the achievements of the female power duo of 2023, Margaret Robbie and Greta Goig, who made significant strides in the male-dominated movie industry.
While Robbie and Goig made history with notable successes, Megan's appearance at Variety's Power of Women event in Hollywood hinted at exciting projects on the horizon, although specifics remained under wraps. Megan expressed pride in what they were creating and emphasized her anticipation for upcoming announcements. Despite this optimistic outlook, The Hollywood Reporter labeled Prince Harry and Megan Marle as one of Hollywood's biggest losers in 2023, citing a year filled with more misses than hits.
As the award season unfolded, Barbie and Oppenheimer took the lead with multiple nominations for the 80th Golden Globes. The box office showdown turned awards rivalry showcased Barbie's dominance with nine nominations to Oppenheimer's eight. The film even received three nods in the best original song category, demonstrating its widespread recognition.
Meanwhile, the anticipation surrounding Megan's Netflix documentary, "Megan and Harry's," directed by Liz Garbus, did not translate into award nominations. Despite its substantial viewership of 81.6 million hours watched, the documentary faced disappointment with no Emmy or Golden Globe nominations.
In response to the Emmy snub, sources claim that Harry and Megan felt personally victimized, perceiving an orchestrated hate campaign against them on both sides of the Atlantic. The couple is gently demanding answers and a comprehensive inquiry into the reasons behind the significant snub, seeing it as a substantial setback in their Hollywood pursuits.
