Moore managed to secure the award last night (January 5), after she went up against the likes of Amy Adams, Cythia Erivo, Karla Sofía Gascón, Mikey Madison and Zendaya.
The movies represented in the category, including Challengers and Wicked, were some of the most-talked about of the year, but ultimately it was Moore’s performance in The Substance that earned her the trophy.

The actor gratefully accepted the award, telling the crowd: “Thirty years ago, I had a producer tell me that I was a ‘popcorn’ actress and at that time, I made that mean that this wasn’t something that I was allowed to have, that I could do movies that were successful, that made a lot of money, but that I couldn’t be acknowledged.
“I bought in, and I believed that, and that corroded me over time, to the point where I thought a few years ago that maybe this was it, maybe I was complete. I’ve done what I was supposed to do.
“And as I was at kind of a low point, I had this magical, bold, courageous, out-of-the-box, absolutely bonkers script come across my desk called The Substance, and the universe told me that you’re not done.”

Moore was met with applause for her win and afterwards she went into the crowd, where she approached a table occupied by Elle Fanning, Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet.
It was footage from her interactions at this table that caught viewers’ attention after it made its way online, with many viewers unable to ignore the fact that Moore seemed to speak directly to the people either side of Jenner, but barely to the reality TV star herself.
Footage shared by the official Golden Globes TikTok account shows Moore hugging Fanning as Jenner tells her ‘congrats’ – but while Moore continues to hold Fanning’s hand and embrace the excitement, she only appears to give Jenner a brief moment of her attention.

After speaking with Fanning, Moore then moved around Jenner to speak to her boyfriend, Chalamet.
Fans have called out the moment, with many convinced Moore actively chose to speak to Jenner less than those around her.
“Kylie Jenner got ignored,” one viewer commented, as another wrote: “Tbh that’s rude as hell. say hi even if you don’t like he. she completely ignored her.”
However, other viewers have defended Moore, with one saying she’s ‘not obligated’ to say hello to ‘anyone’.
“Just because she’s “Kylie Jenner” doesn’t mean she had to say hi lmao. I wouldn’t say hi to anyone I didn’t personally know,” they wrote.
