Jamie Lee Curtis was nominated yesterday for Best Supporting Actress for her role in Everything Everywhere All at Once and her reaction, captured by a friend as she watched the announcement, reflected the priceless moment. "This is what surprise looks like," Jamie Lee wrote on Instagram with the series of pics showing her shock at the news and then celebrating the moment with an embrace with her husband, Christopher Guest. Jamie Lee said the photos weren't planned but "one of my oldest besties," Oscar-winning director Debbie Oppenheimer, texted her that morning and asked to watch with her. "I didn't even realize she took pictures," said Jamie Lee, noting the pics showed her reaction to hearing her name as well as her co-star Stephanie Hsu being nominated in the same category. "No filters. No fakery. Just the truth of a moment of joy captured by a friend." In another post, Jamie Lee said "it was never even in my wildest dream box to be nominated for an Oscar. I have always felt very much like an outsider looking in and yet always so grateful for any and all opportunities I have had.” She called it "the highlight of my professional life" and praised the "talented, motley crew of artists" in the adventure/sci-fi film, which received 11 nominations in total.
