Robbie Williams just lost a chance to be nominated for the Oscars, but the singer isn’t going to make a big deal out of it! Indeed, its title Forbidden Roadcomposed for the biopic Better Man which traces his life, was disqualified from the race for the Best Original Title statuette.
In question: the presence of extracts ofI Got a Name by Jim Croce, a song composed by Charles Fox and Norman Gimbel, which makes the song ineligible under Academy rules.
A deliverance for the introvert
“The rules are the rules and you have to respect them,” Robbie Williams told Deadline during his visit to the Golden Globes last Sunday. “It would have been nice, but as an introvert, it’s another party I won’t have to go to.” I lived through it, I moved on. Everything is fine. »
Robbie Williams will therefore be able to stay peacefully at home on March 3 when the Oscars will be presented from the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles.
