How exciting!
It was a tight race for the award for Best Supporting Actress at Sunday’s the Critics’ Choice Awards. In an exciting turn of events, Alicia Vikander beat out award show vet Kate Winslet and snagged the coveted trophy.
We couldn’t be more excited for Miz Vikander since she was an absolute scene-stealer in the 2015 flick The Danish Girl. Not to mention, the 27-year-old was trumped by the Steve Jobs actress at this year’s Golden Globes. Oof!
