Similarly to how Jodie Foster and Nicole Kidman’s conversation during the interval of the 82nd Awards ceremony has been overanalyzed, dramatized and made a mountain out of a mole hill out of, some social media users’ attention was in the completely wrong place when it came to Demi Moore’s evening, too.
After receiving her award for Best Performance by an Actress in a Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy, Moore was recorded going into the crowd and approaching a table where the likes of Elle Fanning, Jenner and Timothée Chalamet were sat.
Some social media users analyzed the recording and pointed out that Moore seemed to speak to those either side of Jenner but not the member of the Kardashian-Jenner family herself, with some viewers questioning whether Moore had ‘ignored’ the reality star.

Thankfully, the star’s youngest daughter Tallulah – who she shares with ex-husband Bruce Willis – has taken to Instagram to nip any speculation ‘straight in the bud’.
In a post shared to her story, Tallulah shared an article questioning whether Moore ‘snubbed’ Jenner, adding a caption addressing it.
She wrote: “Hi @everyone but really, press, NIPPING THIS STRAIGHT IN THE BUD. We spent New Year’s with Elle, so connecting with her after a win was a very organic thing to do, this angel was in total shock and delight and moving throughout a warm room of well wishers.
“There was no snub of any sort, had she seen KJ wanting to congratulate her, she would have fully given her the time and space.
“Literally, just give it all a break and let a gal enjoy her accomplishments!”
*Mic drop*
And what an accomplishment the award is for Moore, who gave an incredibly poignant acceptance speech after receiving the Golden Globe.
The Ghost actor said: “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 [award] wasn’t something that I was allowed to have.

“[It meant] that I could do movies that were successful and that made a lot of money but that I couldn’t be acknowledged, and I believed that.
“That corroded me over time, to the point where I thought a few years ago that maybe this was it, maybe I was complete, maybe I had already done what I was supposed to do.”
However, when the ‘absolutely bonkers script’ for The Substance came across her desk, Moore said she felt like it was the universe telling her she wasn’t ‘done’.
She resolved: “I’ll just leave you with one thing that I think this movie is imparting. In those moments when we don’t think we’re smart enough or pretty enough or skinny enough or successful enough or basically just not enough – I had a woman say to me, just know, you will never be enough, but you can know the value of your worth if you just put down the measuring stick.
“So today I celebrate this as a marker of my wholeness and of the love that is driving me and for the gift of doing something I love and being reminded that I do belong.”
