“I had and I always trust”
If the defeat of Demi Moore in the Oscars against the young Mikey Madison, 25, surprised Hollywood who already expected that she leaves with the coveted statuette, many fans have seen a cruel irony, a case of “life imitating art”, we read in the Daily Mail . In The Substancethe actress interpreters Elisabeth Sparkle, an instructor of aerobic television licensed on the day of her 50th anniversary, replaced by a “younger, more beautiful” version of herself.
Regarding his Oscar defeat, Demi Moore shows himself fair play. At Timeshe confides: she suspected that she was going to come back empty -handed. “I don’t know why I knew it, but I knew it. I was so focused and calm that I did not feel devastated. I did not feel any of this. I just had confidence, and I always have confidence, in everything that is going on. ”
From “Gimmie Moore” to the recognition of a pioneer
Propelled under the spotlight in the 1980s as a member of the “BRAT PACK” (the name given to a group of American actors of the time who notably appeared on the screen in films intended for a young audience), Demi Moore has imposed itself as a real star with cult films like Ghost (1990) et Indecent proposal (1993). In 1996, she became the highest paid actress in Hollywood with a 12.5 million dollars cachet (11 million euros) for Striptease (1996) – A sum which remains lower than that of her husband of the time, Bruce Willis.
This ascent earned him the nickname “Gimmie Moore” (word game signifying “give me more”), a label that she describes today as “harmful” and “very hurtful”, even after all these years. As his friend Gwyneth Paltrow points out in the columns of Time : “There are women today who earn 20 million dollars per film, and that does not make the headlines. It is always said that when we are the first to take the plunge, we get scratched. It was her. “
Recognition by the Time is therefore not trivial. On the contrary, it seems to repair an injustice of several decades. And at a time when Hollywood is experiencing a profound questioning about egism and sexism, Demi Moore undoubtedly embodies this resistance to passing time and the diktats imposed on actresses.
