Barbie received eight Oscar nominations, including the coveted Best Picture. It went on to score one Academy Award on the night, with the ballad What Was I Made For? by Billie Eilish and FINNEAS winning Best Original Song. Greta Gerwig did not receive a Best Director nod, while the leading lady, Margot Robbie, was not nominated for Best Actress.

Ryan Gosling, who was nominated for the Best Supporting Actor Oscar for his role as Ken, recently addressed the snub, stating: "There is no Barbie movie without Greta Gerwig and Margot Robbie, the two people most responsible for this history-making, globally-celebrated film."

It's worth noting that while Gerwig and Robbie were not nominated for Best Director and Best Actress respectively, they were given nods for their work on the project. Gerwig received a nomination for Best Adapted Screenplay for the film, while Robbie has been recognised by the Academy for her work as an executive producer. But this isn't the only headline-hitting snub to surround brand Barbie in recent times...
