A first raid for Lady Gaga ?
In this film released in October 2024, which saw Joaquin Phoenix reprise the role of the terrifying Joker from the Batman universe, Lady Gaga played the role of Harleen Quinzel aka Harley Quinn. On the big screen, she met the disturbing Arthur Fleck during a stay in a psychiatric hospital, forming a relationship as complex as it was passionate. A musical film announced as the sequel to “Joker”, a real worldwide hit in 2019, and for which Joaquin Phoenix’s performance was praised by critics… and by an Oscar for Best Actor. But “Joker: Folie à deux” did not find its audience, turning into a commercial failure, with a little over a million admissions in France (compared to 5.6 million for the first part). . So much so that the film has now been nominated seven times for the Razzie Awards, notably in the categories of Worst Film, Worst Actor for Joaquin Phoenix, and therefore that of Worst Actress for his colleague Lady Gaga.
-The singer, who is preparing to release a new album in February, finds herself in this category supported by several big names in cinema such as Cate Blanchett, nominated for her role in the film “Borderlands”, Dakota Johnson for “Madame Web”, or Bryce Dallas Howard for his role in “Argylle”. Another actress/singer is also in the running in the Worst Actress category: Jennifer Lopez, for her performance in the film “Atlas”. Last year, it was the actress Megan Fox who won the famous golden raspberry with her failed performance in the film “Johnny & Clyde”.
Will this first big failure as an actress demotivate Stefani Germanotta and push her to refocus on her singing career, she who is currently at the top with “Die With A Smile” in duet with Bruno Mars ? Since 2011, she has been filming and it was with “A Star Is Born”, in 2018, that the artist really exploded as an actress. The music of the film also won prizes at the Grammy Awards, the Golden Globes and even the Oscars, for “Shallow”. A whole different atmosphere!
