Glenn Close is very proud of herself – and she doesn’t need an Oscar trophy to prove it!

In a new interview with the Associated Press, the 74-year-old actress talked about being nominated for eight Oscars, but not winning any.

She is tied with the late actor Peter O’Toole, who also had eight Oscar nominations and no wins.

First of all, I don’t think I’m a loser,” Glenn said.

“Who in that category is a loser? You’re there, you’re five people honored for the work that you’ve done by your peers. What’s better than that?” Glenn continued. “And I honestly feel that the press likes to have winners and losers. And then they say, ‘Who is the worst dressed?’ And, you know, ‘Who made the worst speech?’ Forget it. It’s not what it’s about.”

“I say, f–k them!” Glenn concluded.

Over her career, Glenn has been nominated for her roles in Hillbilly Elegy, Fatal Attraction, Dangerous Liaisons, Albert Nobbs, The Wife, The World According to Garp, The Big Chill, and The Natural.

If you missed it, Glenn went viral for doing this at the 2021 Oscars ceremony a few weeks ago!
