It's fine, we don't need validation for what we know is sheer genius. we are used to being over looked.

But this, to me, just highlights how far we haven't come.

Michaela Cole, my sister, you deserve every accolade going. Possibly the best show I have ever seen on TV. And I actually did love Fleabag, too.

I absolutely loved IMDY! I'm shocked. I love the fact that Michaela owns 100% of it and didn't sell it t Netflix, even though they were offering her a million! Owning your own things is very important. I loved the Ghanaian representation too, bang on from my experience. Loved it!

On to write a rare comment in solidarity with Michaela Coel. You are pure excellence and I watched completely enraptured. Even with this gutting news, your piece of art continues to open conversations.

Great to know the Netflix fact. Even more respect.

I hope she keeps being brilliant and uses this as rocket fuel.

I love her & also loved Chewing Gum so much it was pure brilliance!

Just urgh.

But then I stopped taking these awards seriously ages ago, so why am I surprised? Oh, right, because Emily in Paris has two nominations and is the shitiest shite whichever way you look at the shit!

I think it's disgraceful

I May Destroy You did not get nominated. did not get nominated.

Sia's appalling abelist film Music that reinforces every bad stereotype of autism did.

That's what makes the Golden Globes an absolute joke IMO.

Emily in Paris is like a cheap bubblegum that loses it's taste after 5 seconds. I May Destroy You was a fine dining experience.
