Barbie sensationally beat Taylor Swift’s The Eras concert movie to an award at the 2024 Golden Globes on Sunday.
The Margot Robbie-Ryan Gosling blockbuster faced off against Swift’s film in the new Cinematic and Box Office Achievement award – with Barbie coming out on top.
It also won out over Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, John Wick: Chapter 4, Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part 1, Oppenheimer, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse and The Super Mario Bros. Movie.
Robbie, 33, and director Greta Gerwig, 40, rushed to the stage along with the cast and crew to accept the award – while Swift was a gracious loser as she led the standing ovation.
Margot said: ‘Thank you. We would like to dedicate this to every single person on the planet who dressed up and went to the greatest place on Earth, the movie theaters.
‘Thank you, and thank you to everybody, all the Barbies and Kens in front of and behind the screen.
‘It was the greatest most joyful show of craftsmanship and passion I’ve ever seen.
‘And on behalf of Tom and David and Robbie and I, we want to thank the brave individuals at Warner and Mattel for taking an extraordinary risk in literally inventing numbers to justify green lighting this, and then standing by at every step of the way.
‘Thank you to Noah Baumbach for showing his inner Barbie girl. Thank you to Ryan Gosling for going full beach. And America Ferrera for showing her soul.
Margot concluded her speech by thanking the award show for creating the new category which recognizes a film with ‘a box office receipt total/gross of $150 million, of which $100 million must come from the U.S. domestic box office, and/or obtain commensurate digital streaming viewership recognized by trusted industry sources’ according to the Golden Globes.
‘Last but not least, thank you so much to the Golden Globes for creating an award that celebrates movie fans.
‘This is a movie about Barbie, but it’s also a movie about humans. We made it — it’s about you. We made it for you, and we made it with love. Thank you for loving it back.
The fantasy comedy features Robbie as Barbie and Gosling as Ken as they embark on a journey of self-discovery following an existential crisis.
Emma Stone triumphed as she earned Best Performance by a Female Actor in a Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy for Poor Things at the 81st Golden Globes.
The 35-year-old actress received a standing ovation as she won over Alma Pöysti – Fallen Leaves, Fantasia Barrino – The Color Purple (2023), Jennifer Lawrence – No Hard Feelings, Margot Robbie – Barbie, and Natalie Portman – May December.
